4.0 out of 5 stars
A great book - but terribly expensive!,
This review is from: The Irish Language in Northern Ireland: The Politics of Culture and Identity (Hardcover)
Camille O'Reilly is already a well-known name to everybody involved in the Irish language scene. She has been trying to answer the difficult and important question, if and to what extent the Irish language in Northern Ireland can be called "terrorist lingo", as lots of its opponent see it. Her book is interesting to everybody who wants to get acquainted with the peculiar sociolinguistic experiment of reviving a minority language in vernacular use outside its demesne. I myself bought it during my half-year stay in Galway, but I still think that it was terribly expensive. I am not QUITE sure if it was worth the high price, and consequently i give it only four stars. If it had cost half its price, I would have no hesitations to give it five stars.
