{"product_id":"exhuming-passions-katie-holmes-9780716531449","title":"Exhuming Passions: The Pressure of the Past in Ireland and Australia","description":"History is constantly evoked to justify present political positions or to understand and interpret current events. But this is never a simple matter. This book contributes to the recurring public debate about the intrusions of past trauma, conflict, and discord into the controversies of the present. Exhuming Passions is an interdisciplinary collection of writings by highly esteemed Australian and Irish scholars about the different ways in which the past is remembered and contested in Ireland and Australia. The book deals with highly topical issues, such as the ways in which war is remembered and commemorated; governmental apologies for harms done by previous generations or governments; film and literature constructs of the past; and, not least, the responsibility of scholars for recording and interpreting truths about the past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katie Holmes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0716531445\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780716531449\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Irish Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2011 pg. 21","brand":"Katie Holmes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48441309561087,"sku":"9780716531449","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1175380c-7d37-4f6b-b6fe-6252f9abf23c.jpg?v=1777190076","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/exhuming-passions-katie-holmes-9780716531449","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
