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. 606 $aNational characteristics, Irish 607 $aIreland$xCivilization 615 0$aNational characteristics, Irish. 676 $a941.5 700 $aWilson$b Thomas M.$f1951-$0309805 702 $aDonnan$b Hastings 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784878003321 996 $aThe anthropology of Ireland$93686954 997 $aUNINA
