Loss is woven into the fabric of motherhood. It starts with a physical separation, a cutting of the cord. Belfast, December 1993, a baby girl goes missing.

A History of Women in Ireland, 1500-1800
Author: Mary O'Dowd
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317877241
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
The first general survey of the history of women in early modern Ireland. Based on an impressive range of source material, it presents the results of original research into women’s lives and experiences in Ireland from 1500 to 1800. This was a time of considerable change in Ireland as English colonisation, religious reform and urbanisation transformed society on the island. Gaelic society based on dynastic lordships and Brehon Law gave way to an anglicised and centralised form of government and an English legal system.
