Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Some houses remember the women who entered them. Greystones House writes them into its walls.When Éabha Ní Raghallaigh arrives in Greystones, County Wicklow, she believes she has been chosen for an elite academic scholarship at a private women's foundation devoted to Irish folklore, ritual language, and cultural preservation. The house above the grey sea is beautiful, severe, and watchful, with locked rooms, old portraits, a forbidden salt garden, and seven rules every scholar must obey.At the centre of the Foundation's work is a mysterious manuscript known as Leabhar na mBan Liath, The Book of the Grey Women. Its language is said to belong to a forgotten female tradition, one passed through mourning, secrecy, blood, and the body itself.The manuscript names this forbidden language An Teanga Chraicinn, the Skin Tongue.It is a language built through flesh.A wound can become a word.A scar can become a sentence.A body can become a book.As Éabha is drawn deeper into the scholarship of Greystones House, she becomes entangled with Iseult Ní Chathasaigh, a brilliant and dangerous student whose fascination with the manuscript hides a private inheritance of grief, obsession, and betrayal. Around them, the other women begin to change. Marks appear on skin. Old names rise from beneath the soil. The salt garden calls from beyond the locked gate. The house begins to answer in voices that should have been dead for centuries.The more Éabha translates, the more the manuscript seems to know her.The more she desires Iseult, the less certain she becomes that desire belongs only to the living.And beneath Greystones House, the Grey Women are waiting for the final phrase to be spoken.The Girls of Greystones House is an Irish Gothic dark academia novel of forbidden language, female obsession, haunted scholarship, coastal dread, and the terrifying power of a body that refuses to stay silent.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Towards the end of the 20th century, the decades of abuse and neglect perpetrated in Ireland's comprehensive carceral network began finally to be exposed. The mistreatment endured by children and others on the margins of Irish society, notably women, in these orphanages, reformatory schools, industrial schools, psychiatric hospitals, County Homes, Mother and Baby Homes, adoption agencies and Magdalene Laundries now attracts increasing investigation and scholarship. Bringing together contributions from leading experts across a broad range of disciplines, including history, philosophy, law, archaeology, criminology, accounting and architecture, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of the Magdalene system through a close study of Donnybrook Magdalene Laundry in Dublin. To date, the Justice for Magdalenes Research group has recorded the names of 315 women and girls who died at Donnybrook Magdalene Laundry. By focusing on this one institution-on its ethos, development, operation and built environment, and the lives of the girls and women held there-this book reveals the underlying framework of Ireland's wider system of institutionalisation. The analysis includes a focus on the privatisation and commodification of public welfare, reproductive injustice, institutionalised misogyny, class prejudice, the visibility of supposedly 'hidden' institutions and the role of oral testimony in reconstructing history. In undertaking such a close study, the authors uncover truths missing from the state's own investigations; shed new light on how these brutal institutions came to have such a powerful presence in Irish society, and highlight the significance of their continuing impact on modern Ireland.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Towards the end of the 20th century, the decades of abuse and neglect perpetrated in Ireland's comprehensive carceral network began finally to be exposed. The mistreatment endured by children and others on the margins of Irish society, notably women, in these orphanages, reformatory schools, industrial schools, psychiatric hospitals, County Homes, Mother and Baby Homes, adoption agencies and Magdalene Laundries now attracts increasing investigation and scholarship. Bringing together contributions from leading experts across a broad range of disciplines, including history, philosophy, law, archaeology, criminology, accounting and architecture, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of the Magdalene system through a close study of Donnybrook Magdalene Laundry in Dublin. To date, the Justice for Magdalenes Research group has recorded the names of 315 women and girls who died at Donnybrook Magdalene Laundry.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Between 1922 and 1996, over 10,000 girls and women were imprisoned in Magdalene Laundries, including those considered 'promiscuous', a burden to their families or the state, those who had been sexually abused or raised in the care of the Church and State, and unmarried mothers. These girls and women were subjected to forced labour as well as psychological and physical maltreatment. Using the Irish State's own report into the Magdalene institutions, as well as testimonies from survivors and independent witnesses, this book gives a detailed account of life behind the high walls of Ireland's Magdalene institutions. The book offers an overview of the social, cultural and political contexts of institutional survivor activism, the Irish State's response culminating in the McAleese Report, and the formation of the Justice for Magdalenes campaign, a volunteer-run survivor advocacy group.Ireland and the Magdalene Laundries documents the ongoing work carried out by the Justice for Magdalenes group in advancing public knowledge and research into Magdalene Laundries, and how the Irish State continues to evade its responsibilities not just to survivors of the Magdalenes but also in providing a truthful account of what happened. Drawing from a variety of primary sources, this book reveals the fundamental flaws in the state's investigation and how the treatment of the burials, exhumation and cremation of former Magdalene women remains a deeply troubling issue today, emblematic of the system of torture and studious official neglect in which the Magdalene women lived their lives.The Authors are donating all royalties in the name of the women who were held in the Magdalenes to EPIC (Empowering People in Care).…
