Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A consideration of how the Easter Rising (1916) has been represented in Irish novels was undertaken in this study, based on the contexts of the cultural and social history in twentieth century Ireland. Some external factors such as gaining membership in the EU, the Troubles and Celtic Tiger may have greatly contributed to the depiction of the historic event in the works of Irish writers.
