 | P. S. O''Hegarty (1879-1955): Sinn Féin Fenian 'P. S. O'Hegarty (1879-1955)' provides an informative and lively biography of the Irish nationalist P.S. O'Hegarty, a major historical figure in the modern separatist movement. At the same time the book explores important issues within nationalism and Irish history, such as what is meant by 'nation' and national identity, cultural and political tolerance, Republican Liberalism, and the nature (as well as the clash) of religion and state. Keiron Curtis gained his PhD in Politics from Swansea University in 2005. Since 2004 he has worked as an Associate Lecturer at the University of Wales Cardiff, and more recently at the University of Wales Swansea and the University of Wales Institute Cardiff, teaching and supervising research students in History, Politics and International Relations. |
