Despite complaining regularly of treatment as a colony by England, Ireland nevertheless played a significant part in Britain's imperialism, from its formative period in the late eighteenth century through to the decolonizing years of the early twentieth century. Framed by two key events of world history, the American Revolution and Indian Independence, this book examines Irish involvement in empire in several interlinked sections: through issues of migration and inhabitation; through literary and historical representations of empire; through Irish support for imperialism and involvement with resistance movements abroad; and through Irish participation in the extensive and intricate networks of empire. Informed by recent historiographical and theoretical perspectives, and including several detailed archival investigations, this volume offers an interdisciplinary and evolving view of a burgeoning fieldof research and will be of interest to scholars of Irish studies, imperial and postcolonial studies, history and literature. 410 0$aCambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies,$x2635-1641 606 $aImperialism 606 $aGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aWorld history 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism 606 $aHistory of Britain and Ireland 606 $aLiterary History 606 $aEuropean Literature 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History 615 0$aImperialism. 615 0$aGreat Britain$xHistory. 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 0$aWorld history. 615 14$aImperialism and Colonialism. 615 24$aHistory of Britain and Ireland. 615 24$aLiterary History. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 615 24$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 676 $a941.5 676 $a941.508 702 $aRoberts$b Daniel Sanjiv$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWright$b Jonathan Jeffrey$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484089903321 996 $aIreland's Imperial Connections, 1775-1947$94329071 997 $aUNINA
