Regina Sexton: When One Story Will Do: The Heritagisation of Wild Garlic in Ireland |
|
Abstract: This paper examines the rise in the profile, presence and heritagisation of wild garlic in Ireland since the late twentieth century. It considers how an era-contained representation of the plant was developed in response to external influences and used in identity-formation linked to ideas of Irish environmental purity, exceptionalism, and a romantic Celtic-Gaelic mystique. |
