Mourning, Memory, & Public Display in Northern Ireland: Popular Visual Culture & Political Allegiance
| Title | Mourning, Memory, & Public Display in Northern Ireland: Popular Visual Culture & Political Allegiance |
|---|---|
| Subject | Ireland, particularly Northern Ireland's Ulster, is a visually expressive culture marked by political unrest. |
| Description | Although Ireland is frequently recognized for its many oral and verbal expressive arts such as storytelling, it is also a very visual culture, especially in the six counties of Ulster, which comprise Northern Ireland. Torn with political unrest centered around questions of national identity, social life is marked by many different events and artifacts presented visually and displayed publicly. These include painted curbstones which encode a neighborhood's poetical allegiance, murals, life-cycle rites including weddings and especially funerals, public commemorations, parades, effigy burnings, and the spontaneous marking, with flower wreaths and personal memorabilia, of the places where a violent death has occurred |
