Per Scribendum, Sumus

Mairéad Nic Craith's has sought to integrate critical heritage studies, cultural history, literature and folklore into a creative ethnology. Issues of community and place, memory and nostalgia are key themes in her work. The tensions around forms, definitions and uses of heritage are picked up in the contributions to this book. Research essays engage with the wide range of topics Mairéad has explored. Other contributions note her support and mentoring or illustrate the author's appreciation of her work through prose, music and artistic representations.
