Book Synopsis Heroic Revivals from Carlyle to Yeats by : Geraldine Higgins
Book excerpt: This book reassesses the cultural and political dimensions of the Irish Revival's heroic ideal and explores its implications for the construction of Irish modernity. By foregrounding the heroic ideal, it shows how the cultural landscape carved out by these writers is far from homogenous.
