Introduction : Patrimoine/Cultural Heritage In France And Ireland, Eamon Maher, Eugene O'Brien

Books/Chapters

Assessing something as all-pervasive as cultural heritage can run the risk of resorting to cliches and stereotypes, even though these very things are also an integral part ofwhat constitutes the patrimoine ofany given society. The French are rightly acclaimed for their fashion, wines, gastronomy, literature, philosophy, regional specificities, architecture, and cafe culture, to name but a few ofthe Hexagone's most distinctive traits. Ireland, on the other hand, has its pubs, its writers, many ofwhom traditionally spent far too much time in the aforementioned pubs, its fighting spirit, its greenness, its historic struggle with its nearest neighbour, perfidious Albion, its beef …

George Moore : Cultural Tourist In France, Eamon Maher

Books/Chapters

Ofall the Irish writers ofthe nineteenth and twentieth centuries, George Moore (I 8S 2.-1933) is the one who was most embedded in French literature, painting and culture.

Jean Sulivan (1913-1980): La Marginalité Dans La Vie Et L’Oeuvre, Eamon Maher Jan 2008

Jean Sulivan (1913-1980): La Marginalité Dans La Vie Et L’Oeuvre, Eamon Maher

Books/Chapters

Le prêtre-écrivain Jean Sulivan est encore peu connu en France. Pourtant, Jacques Madaule a dit de lui dans Témoignage chrétien du 30 avril 1964 qu'il était "un auteur capable de continuer Bernanos". A travers l'étude de la marginalité dans la vie et l'oeuvre de Sulivan, l'ouvrage d'Eamon Maher entend mettre en lumière l'originalité d'un parcours et d'une écriture des marges : l'enfance dans une ferme bretonne, le travail de prêtre diocésain à Rennes et la naissance à la littérature, en marge des courants, roman catholique ou nouveau roman.
