description: This history of Ireland focuses on the ways in which the nation has been depicted by competing interests, from political factions to religious groups to commercial powers. By examining the origins of Ireland's various identities, and looking at Irish culture, religion, and language, Comerford offers an original work of scholarship that analyzes Ireland's rich history and traces the formation of its national identity.
