Instead of investigating the evolution of the schools as an isolated process, he explores the complex interrelations of Irish education, institutions and society, treating the schools as cultural litmus paper. By presenting Ireland's schools as a reflection of the society that produced them, Professor Akenson demonstrates that they are, in truth, ""a mirror to the face of Kathleen ni Houlihan"". 410 0$aRoutledge Revivals 606 $aEducation$zIreland$xHistory 606 $aEducation$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 676 $a370.9415 676 $a370/.9415 676 $a372.941 700 $aAkenson$b Donald H.$0482657 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462778803321 996 $aA mirror to Kathleen's face$92276062 997 $aUNINA
