"Translation and Language in Nineteenth-Century Ireland" offers a comprehensive analysis of the role of translation and translators in 19th-century Ireland. The book utilizes the history of translation to enhance the understanding of cultural exchange during this period. It presents a new image of a transnational Ireland in contact with Europe and provides fresh perspectives on the historical, political, and cultural debates of the era. By applying contemporary translation theories to Ireland's socio-historical past, it yields novel insights into various disciplines such as religion, gender, authorship, and nationalism. The work examines the impact of translations on society and questions existing assumptions about the role of language and Europe in 19th-century Ireland. In light of the significant linguistic and social changes of the time, the book illuminates the creative, conflict-ridden, and hegemonic forces unleashed by translations. It is aimed at professionals in the fields of translation studies, Irish studies, history, comparative literature, and cultural studies.
