Paperback. Zustand: Good. John Ford's "The Quiet Man" (1952) is the most popular cinematic representation of Ireland, and one of Hollywood's classic romantic comedies. For some viewers and critics the film is a powerful evocation of romantic Ireland and the search for home; for others, it is a showcase for the worst stereotypes of stage-Irishry. Much of Irish cinema since the development of an indigenous film industry in the 1980s has set its face firmly against these mythic images of Ireland, but no film has yet attained the enduring appeal of "The Quiet Man". In this radical reappraisal of Ford's Oscar-winning film, Luke Gibbons traces its development from Maurice Walsh's original story (1933) and argues that its romantic excesses are a symptom of much darker undercurrents in the literary text, and the displacement of trauma that often underlies nostalgia. Moreover, Gibbons ably demonstrates how the film, rather than indulging in escapism, actually questions its own romantic illusions and the dream of returning to an Irish paradise lost.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Between 1980 and 2015 the one-way story of emigration from Ireland to America changed. The Irish who arrived in the US in the 1980s could return home in the late 1990s because the economy improved. Many did so, while others remained in the US. The scale of return was unprecedented, and it happened side by side with an explosion in information and communications' technology. This book explores the stories of 20 Irish men and women who navigated a changed migration circuit to understand how they adapted to life here' and there' across the Atlantic; their stories highlight the value and complications of Transatlantism and its impact on a sense of belonging and identity for Transatlantics today.An original, insightful, and impressively informative study of impeccable scholarship, as well as a timely and valued contribution to our on-going national discussion about immigration and immigration policies, Irish Transatlantics, 1980-2015 is an unreservedly recommended addition to community, college, and university library collections.--MWBR.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. An important celebratory collection of Irish poetry by graduates of University College, Cork writing in both English and Irish, which groups together poets of international standing in a single volume, Paul Durcan, Eileain Ni Chuilleanain and Michael Davitt. Irish language poetry, long considered the death wail of a dying beast, experienced a remarkable resurgence in the late 60s and early 70s. This emanated mainly from the poetry magazine INNTI, first issued as a broadsheet by UCC students and later going on tyo become one of the most prestigious poetry publications in these isles. Most of the poets associated with INNTI are alumnae of UCC and beteeen them they have already produced a remarkable body of work. The presence in UCC of Sean O Riordain, the poet, and Sean O Tuma, poet, scholar, teacher, dramatist and critic was of major importance in the development of Irish language poetry. In the English Department Sean Lucy and John Montague were a major source of inspiration for poets writing in the English language. Through the influence of these teachers many of Ireland's most distinguished poets have been through the portals of UCC. The contributors to the collection include Paul Durcan, Patrick Cotter, Michael Davitt, Roz Cowman, Theo Dorgan, Sean Dunne, Eileain Ni Chuilleanain and Colm Breathnach. The editors will provide a main introduction, introductions to each poet, and translations of the Irish poetry.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Monsignor Hugh OFlaherty is an Irish Oskar Schindler. During the German occupation of Rome he ran an escape organisation for Allied POWs, civilians and Jews. The work was dangerous. Safe only within the Vatican, he regularly ventured out in disguise. Kappler, the Gestapo chief, ordered him captured or killed. When the Allies entered Rome he had saved over 6,500 lives. Kappler was sentenced to life. His only visitor, monthly, was OFlaherty. OFlaherty was awarded high honours, including a CBE (UK), the Congressional Medal (US), and was the first Irishman named Notary of the Holy Office. He retired to Kerry in 1960 and his death in 1963 was reported by newspapers worldwide. Immortalised in the film The Scarlet and the Black with Gregory Peck as OFlaherty, he is commemorated in Ireland by a grove of Italian trees in Killarney National Park and a statue unveiled in Killarney in 2013. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.…
