Pádraic Pearse – The Coming Revolution

29.99

An insight into the political thought of one of the main architects of Ireland’s 1916 rising and of Ireland’s proclamation of Independence. Pearse’s skills as an orator are indisputable. His fiery idealism was one of the key motivators that brought the rebels to the GPO in 1916. This collection of his writing showcase’s this skill, but also the complex philosophy that underpinned it. Ranging from his theories of education, articulated in ‘The Murder Machine’ (1912), through his orations on the great Fenian leaders of the past: Wolfe Tone, Emmet and O’Donovan Rossa; to his writings on ‘The Separatist Idea’, ‘The Spiritual Nation’ and ‘The Sovereign People in the months leading up to the rising; this is a crucial collection for the library of anyone with an interest in Irish History.
