Adolescence in Modern Irish History


Adolescence in Modern Irish History
Adolescence in Modern Irish History by Catherine Cox, Susannah Riordan

This edited collection, the first publication to address the topic of adolescence in Irish history, consists of nine chapters which examine the experience of Irish young adults from the 'affective revolution' of the early nineteenth century to the emergence of the teenager in the 1960s. Based on new archival research and drawing on an extensive international literature, established and emerging scholars explore the social and economic, political and literary contexts in which adolescence emerged as a period of life and ask whether there was such a thing as a distinctively Irish adolescence.
