Edited with an introduction by David H. Greene and Dan H. Laurence, the anthology presents Shaw's characteristically sharp, witty, and incisive views on Irish nationalism, Home Rule, and the cultural identity of a people he was both part of and apart from. With the rhetorical brilliance and caustic humour that defined his public voice, Shaw argues passionately — and often provocatively — against the romanticised myths surrounding Ireland, challenging both British imperialism and Irish complacency in equal measure. Spanning decades of essays, letters, and speeches, this collection illustrates why Shaw remains one of the most searching and irreverent commentators on the Anglo-Irish relationship ever produced.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48893802741979,"sku":"2026200009059-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c476ac5b-fa46-4aaa-95c7-ea1a299fd951.png?v=1782040091","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009059-secondhand-the-matter-with-ireland","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
