The Death of the Irish Language: A Qualified Obituary Reg Hindley
Using extensive field surves to locate the surviving language 'pockets', the author explores the reasons for the language's decline - historical, economic, political and cultural - and puts it into the context of other languages. This book should be of interest to lecturers and students of geography; politics; socio- linguistics; Celtic studies; and people with a serious interest in Irish/Celtic cultural affairs.
