The changing faces of Irel&--social, political, & cultural--documented by some of the greatest photographers of the modern era. Since the invention of photography, Ireland has been a magnet for photographers, but this book is unique in bringing together the work done by the unrivaled talents of the members of Magnum. From Ireland`s first attempts to forge a modern identity in the 1950s to the confident country of the twenty-first century, here is a stunning survey of a beautiful & complex place & people, through times of peace as well as trouble. The photographs reflect the extraordinary insights of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Elliott Erwitt, Josef Koudelka, Inge Morath, Erich Lessing, Eve Arnold, Martine Franck, Martin Parr, Bruce Gilden, Donovan Wylie, Stuart Franklin, & others. They bring a truly international perspective to the book, reflecting the sensibilities of America, France, Germany, Iran, Japan, Morocco--&, of course, Ireland itself. Organized decade by decade, the images show the lingering influence of rural life in the 1950s; the hidden story of ordinary Irish men & women--as well as the sectarian conflict--during the uneasy 1960s & 1970s; renewed confidence & the growth of prosperity & peace as the century passed through its last two decades; & the robust ” Celtic tiger” of today. Each decade has commentary & context supplied by one of the most notable Irish writers of our time. With texts by: John Banville, Anthony Cronin, Anne Enright, Eamonn Mc Cann, Nuala O` Faolain, Fintan O` Toole, & Colm Toibin. Over 250 photographs in color & duotone.
