Singing Ideas: Performance, Politics and Oral Poetry by Tríona Ní Shíocháin was recently published as part of Berghahn's Dance and Performance Studies Series. The book concerns the Irish-language song composer, Máire Bhuí Ní Laeire (1774–c.1848), whose songs occupy a central position in Munster sean-nós singing repertoire to this day; it also includes a theoreticization of song and thought formation in society, as well as discussion of oral composition, transmission, performance and aesthetics.
