It appreciates the intellectual work of someone too often seen as a beautiful adjunct to famous men: as the muse and unrequited love of W B Yeats, the estranged wife of nationalist hero John MacBride and the mother of human rights activist Sean MacBride. Karen Steele examines the major campaigns of Gonne's political career: amnesty, children and the poor, the cause of Ireland, transnational solidarity, the literary revival and the failures of the Free State. In addition to a chronology of Gonne's life, focusing on the details of her political activism, and an introductory essay on her evolving career as an activist journalist, the book includes explanations of the major political issues and background on the newspapers which published her work. The humanity of Maud Gonne's insights will surprise many. This is a passionate account of Irish wrongs and a fitting testament to a life dedicated to political freedom and social justice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Karen Steele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0716527618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780716527619\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 01\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 1.20d","brand":"Karen Steele","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48441307398399,"sku":"9780716527619","price":49.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6090f6f8-947d-4a1b-9b64-7e4e883444d7.jpg?v=1777190062","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/maud-gonnes-irish-nationalist-writings-karen-steele-9780716527619","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
