This book argues that such questions can be answered only by understanding everyday aspects of Irish culture and identity. Such understanding is achieved by paying close attention to what people in Ireland themselves say about the radical changes in their lives in the context of wider global transformation. As notions of sex, religion, and politics are radically reworked in an Ireland being re-imagined in ways inconceivable just a generation ago, anthropologists have been at the forefront of recording the results. The first comprehensive book-length introduction to anthropological research on the island as a whole, The Anthropology of Ireland considers the changing place in a changing Ireland of religion, sex, sport, race, dance, young people, the Travellers, St Patrick's Day and much more.National characteristics, IrishIrelandCivilizationNational characteristics, Irish.941.5Wilson Thomas M.1951-309805Donnan Hastings546745MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911139950403321The anthropology of Ireland4842261UNINA
