It shows how conflicting interpretations broke frequently along denominational lines, but that authors were also influenced by ethnic, cultural, and political considerations, and by whether they were resident in Ireland or living in exile. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eImagining Ireland's Past: Early Modern Ireland through the Centuries\u003c\/em\u003e details how authors extolled the merits of their progenitors, offered hope and guidance to the particular audience they addressed, and disputed opposing narratives. The author shows how competing scholars, whether contributing to vernacular histories or empirical studies, became transfixed by the traumatic events of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries as they sought to explain either how stability had finally been achieved, or how the descendants of those who had been wronged might secure redress.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicholas Canny\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198808968\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198808961\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/25\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.34h x 6.39w x 1.17d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2022","brand":"Nicholas Canny","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43993709576447,"sku":"9780198808961","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_81f0e9c0-5eea-444b-b1e9-12a6969fe63f.jpg?v=1683325862","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/imagining-irelands-pasts-nicholas-canny-9780198808961","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
