Following Declan Kiberds Foreword and the editors Introduction, the contributing chapters, in their order of appearance, are from President of Ireland Michael D. Higgins, Anthony Roche, David Clare, Elizabeth Mannion, Nelson OCeallaigh Ritschel, Aisling Smith, Susanne Colleary, Audrey McNamara, Aileen R. Ruane, Peter Gahan, and Gustavo A. Rodriguez Martin. The essays establish that Shaws Irishness was inherent and manifested itself in his work, demonstrating that Ireland was a recurring feature in his considerations. Locating Shaw within the march towards modernizing Ireland furthers the recent efforts to secure Shaws place within the Irish spheres of literature and politics.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-42}, recid = {938434}, pages = {1 online resource}, address = {Cham :}, year = {2020}, }
