Bøger af James J MacKillop

Movies from and about Ireland have attracted huge audiences, capturing top international prizes (""The Crying Game"") and an Academy Award (""My Left Foot""). In this text, contributors take a variety of approaches to the treatment of films and film makers.

Maureen ORourke Murphy and James MacKillop survey 13 centuries of Irish literature, including old Irish epic and lyric poetry, Irish folksongs and a selection of 19th-century prose and poetry. For each author there is a biographical sketch, discussion of how his or her selections relate to a larger body of work, and a selected bibliography.
