All places undergo change, but in few has this change been quite as sweeping as Ireland – both the independent Republic of Ireland and dependent Northern Ireland – so it is good to see where it is heading at present. Obviously, that has to be judged on the background of where it is coming from, not only over the past decade or so but over centuries and, indeed, millennia. This new edition of Historical Dictionary of Ireland is an excellent resource for discovering the history of Ireland. This is done through a chronology, an introductory essay, and an extensive bibliography. The cross-referenced dictionary section has over 600 entries on significant persons, places and events, political parties and institutions (including the Catholic church) with period forays into literature, music and the arts. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Ireland.

Ireland has seen consequential changes, as cultural and social trends evident during preceding decades have continued and been consolidated. These include the serious loss of prestige suffered by institutions that had been pillars of the Irish state since independence, including both the Roman Catholic Church and the traditional political system, due to an unrelenting series of revelations and scandals. Historical Dictionary of Ireland contains a chronology, an introduction, an extensive bibliography, and cross-referenced entries on important personalities and aspects of the country’s politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Ireland.
