A Significant Irish Educationalist: The Educational Writings of P.H. Pearse; Edited by Séamus Ó Buachalla

Hardback

Condition: Off Mint

(The range of writing contained in this collection demonstrates the industry with which Patrick Pearse applied himself to the subject of education. By any criteria, his educational work was significant, original, extensive and progressive; his wider recognition as an innovative educationalist has been impeded by the manner in which his literary and political achievements have tended to obscure its significance in the popular image. The availability of his collected writings on education may accelerate the belated recognition of his educational work in its Irish and European dimensions.
