JThis volume represents a less travelled road to the complex history of Irish- German relations. It acknowledges the simple truth that connections between two countries are made first and foremost by people. The present collection outlines the biographies of a number of individuals for whom their encounter with the other culture has been a crucial and seminal event in their professional, artistic or scholarly life and work; in turn they themselves have had a profound impact on the course of Irish-German relations.
