The Irish tower house examines the social role of castles in
late-medieval and early modern Ireland. It uses a multidisciplinary
methodology to uncover the lived experience of this historic
culture, demonstrating the interconnectedness of society, economics
and the environment. Of particular interest is the revelation of
how concerned pre-modern people were with participation in the
economy and the exploitation of the natural environment for
economic gain. Material culture can shed light on how individuals
shaped spaces around themselves, and tower houses, thanks to their
pervasiveness in medieval and modern landscapes, represent a unique
resource. Castles are the definitive building of the European
Middle Ages, meaning that this book will be of great interest to
scholars of both history and archaeology. -- .
