The Irish Folklore Commission 1935-1970
Between 1935 and 1970 the Irish Folklore Commission (Coimisiun Bealoideasa Eireann), under-funded and at great personal cost to its staff, assembled one of the world's largest folklore collections. This book elucidates the cultural, linguistic, political and ideological factors that had a bearing on the establishment.
