This is a book-length study of the humanities and the Irish university. Ireland was a deeply religious country throughout the 20th century but the colleges of its national university never established a religion or theology department. The official first language of Ireland is Irish but the vast majority of teaching in the arts and humanities is in English. These are two of the anomalies that long constrained humanities education in Ireland. This book charts a history of responses to humanities education in the Irish context.
