The contribution of women to the construction of modern society has been largely forgotten in Irish history. Even though the interest in women's studies has improved in the past decades, adding women's names to history is not enough: we need to question its basis, Adela Flamarike argues in this original new book. / The author explores how the distinctive features of Irish cultural nationalism led to a distinctive understanding of both womanhood and the role of women's arts in Irish cultural self-realisation. / Contents: Introduction. / Women and nationalism in Ireland / The road to independence / The dichotomy between feminism and nationalism / The Irish Revival.
