The Spirit of the Nation 1845

Angebote / Angebote:

This immensely popular and influential anthology of ballads and poems contributed to the Nation -- including those by Davis, Mangan, and Walsh -- was originally issued in two parts in 1843 and 1844. These, combined and expanded, became the standard edition of 1845, which went into more than sixty impressions by the end of the century. It was hailed on its publication as 'the first bud of a new season, when manhood, union, and nationality, would replace submission, hatred, and provincialism', and Arthur Griffith spoke for his generation when he asserted in 1901 that 'the tradition of Irish Nationality has been preserved in the country principally through the ballad literature called into existence by the starting of the Nation'. The edition used is the 1845 de luxe, collected version with music and indexes to names, places and Irish words and phrases.
