" . . (T)his work breaks new ground in the study of the historical and political in Irish drama. The historical drama in Ireland has always had an element of "claiming" the past for a very particular political or religious present i.e. "our heroes" against theirs, or, too often, "our hatred" against theirs . . . Professor Hawkins is to be congratulated for a fine research work that discusses the theatre as a means of historical and political persuasion and possession and redress."
Professor R.B. Mahony.
