Quick overview Patrick Pearse, teacher, poet and one of the executed leaders of the 1916 Rising has long been a central figure in Irish history. This book provides a radically new interpretation of Patrick Pearse's work in education, and examines how his work as a teacher became a potent political device in pre-independent Ireland.
