FOREWORD

Two boys, one armed with a rifle, protect a horse-drawn bread van in Dublin.
Fifty essays. Fifty contributors. One seminal year.
The year 1922 marked the beginning of the final phase in Ireland s revolution: it saw the ratification of the Anglo-Irish Treaty; the establishment of the Irish Free State; the outbreak of the civil war; and the consolidation of partition as Northern Ireland opted out of the Free State settlement.
In fifty short essays, the contributors to this volume attempt to capture the breadth of events, issues and debates that marked the year. Building on their own expertise and on the wealth of recent scholarship provoked by the Decade of Centenaries, each contributor chooses one topic that illuminates a key aspect of Ireland in 1922 and how the revolutionary period would shape the formation of a new state. Together, these contributions create a mosaic of a year that would prove to be a turning point in Irish history; one whose legacy remains controversial a century
