Description
Elizabeth I and Ireland brings together recent scholarly advances to connect the roles played by Elizabeth I and the Irish in shaping relations between their realms. This collection of essays, written by Irish and English historians and literary scholars, explores the interactions between Gaelic elites and the crown, as well as the imperial and colonial entanglements of literary masterpieces from the age. By examining these connections, this book provides a new understanding of Elizabeth I's activism and the significance of Ireland in Tudor political calculations. The result is a sustained consideration of the complex relationships between England, Ireland, and continental powers during the Renaissance period. With its interdisciplinary approach, Elizabeth I and Ireland offers a fresh perspective on a pivotal moment in history, shedding light on the often-overlooked connections between literature, politics, and culture.
