It focuses on different varieties of the child found in the work of a range of Irish Protestant writers, theologians, philosophers, educationalists, politicians and parents from the early seventeenth century up to the outbreak of the 1798 Rebellion. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book is structured around a detailed examination of six 'versions' of the child: the evil child, the vulnerable\/innocent child, the political child, the believing child, the enlightened child, and the freakish child. It traces these versions across a wide range of genres (fiction, sermons, political pamphlets, letters, educational treatises, histories, catechisms and children's bibles), showing how concepts of childhood related to debates about Irish nationality, politics and history across these two centuries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jarlath Killeen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.3lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526161970","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42440650588297,"sku":"9781526161970","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_3f6c5284-d65c-45a4-9a46-73f5e5ef4c21.jpg?v=1716239286","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/imagining-the-irish-child-discourses-of-childhood-in-irish-anglican-writing-of-the-seventeenth-and-eighteenth-centuries-9781526161970","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
