'Remembering and Forgetting 1916 engages with the diverse, divergent, and at times contradictory, discourses of commemoration in Ireland. It explores the complex politics of commemoration of four significant events in Irish history: the Easter Rising, the Battle of the Somme, the 1798 Rebellion, and the H-Block Hunger Strike. It asks how the commemorations of these events have become incorporated into present politics in the wake of the Good Friday Agreement. The book begins and ends with the Easter Rising. The construction of 1916 as the pivotal moment of Irish history, identity and memory has had lasting consequences for the Irish definition of political conflict and how this is defined through commemoration. In Remembering and Forgetting 1916, it is argued that the ghosts of 1916 are in many ways the ghosts of 1998. This book thus calls forth the ghosts of commemoration and examines how the ghosts of conflict and consensus are used to political ends in the present.' (Publisher)
