Heritage, diaspora and the consumption of culture: movements in Irish landscapes

Using an interdisciplinary and transhistorical framework this book examines the cultural, material, and symbolic articulations of Irish migration relationships from the medieval period through to the contemporary post-Celtic Tiger era.

With attention to people's different uses of social space, relationships with and memories of the landscape, as well as their symbolic expressions of diasporic identity, 'Heritage, Diaspora and the Consumption of Culture' examines the different forms of diaspora over time and contributes to contemporary debates on home, foreignness, globalization and consumption.
