520 1 $a"Mary Kenny's Goodbye to Catholic Ireland is a cultural and personal narrative of her native society from the fall of Parnell to the rise of President Mary Robinson: a social history of the twentieth century in Catholic Ireland as seen by those who experienced it. It explains Ireland today." "The book shows, among other things, how women played a role in constructing and supporting Catholic Ireland; how Catholic Ireland shifted from a broad inclusion within a British identity to a separate Irish identity; how Catholics and Protestants, despite doctrinal and historical differences, shared many similar values; how the Troubles in the North, in challenging 'a Protestant state for a Protestant people' actually had the effect of questioning the basis of a Catholic people; how the international dimension of Catholicity influenced Ireland - and vice-versa; and how Ireland, as a nation, is historically incomprehensible without Catholicism." "Above all, the simplistic image of Ireland as a society controlled by its church is provocatively challenged in Mary Kenny's lively and humorous analysis."--Jacket.
