This volume represents a wide range of disciplines—English, anthropology, history, Irish and European studies, sociology, and geography—and deals with both Ireland and Northern Ireland, stretching from the late eighteenth century to the present. Editors Marilyn Cohen and Nancy J. Curtin define their project as a theoretical analysis of gender, an approach that results in compelling revisions of Irish studies, as well as contributions to gender and feminist theory relevant beyond the geographical focus of the book. For an indication of the range of topics addressed, consider articles by Cohen, Jane Gray, and Gordon Bigelow, which demonstrate how attention to gender can offer insights into migration, industrialization, and domestic economy. |
