Mirrors

Résumé du livre

"Banners, flags, drums, sashes, lilies, arches, bonfires--the symbols of Northern Ireland's two main political traditions are generally seen as a backdrop or a marginal illustration to the present troubles. The comprehensively illustrated book is the first to draw together their various histories and look at them as a whole. What it reveals is not only ... slice of Northern Ireland's past, but the continuing political role of two constantly evolving visual languages, orange and green."--Back cover.
