Produktinformationen zu „A History of Ireland in 250 Episodes - Everything You've Ever Wanted to Know About Irish History (ePub)“

Jonathan Bardon covers all the obvious things: the invasions, battles, development of towns and cities, the Reformation, the Georgian era, the Famine, rebellions and resistance, the difference of Ulster, partition, the twentieth century. What makes this book so valuable, however, are the quirky subjects he chooses to illustrate how history really works: the great winter freeze of 1740 and the famine that followed; crime and duelling; an emigrant voyage; evictions. These episodes get behind the historical headlines to give a glimpse of past realities that might otherwise be lost to view. The author has retained the original episodic structure of the radio programmes. The result is a marvellous mosaic of the Irish past, delivered with clarity and narrative skill.

Autoren-Porträt von Jonathan Bardon

Jonathan Bardon is one of Ireland's most eminent historians. A former lecturer in History at Queen's University Belfast, he is also the author of several books now widely acknowledged as classic works of Irish historiography, including A History of Ulster (2001), The Plantation of Ulster (2011) and A History of Ireland in 250 Episodes (2008). In 2002, he was awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) for his services to community life in Northern Ireland. His most recent book, Hallelujah, is a fascinating look at the first performance of Handel's Messiah in eighteenth-century Dublin.
