| Abstract | "There is more to Irish than St. Patrick's Day and Guinness. The word Irish conjures an array of images, each with a long history. Who defined Irish? In the twentieth century Ireland, the United States, and Irish America were all invested in representation. Exerting or losing control of an ethnic image had ramifications on both sides of the Atlantic"-- Provided by publisher. |
