It is easy to forget that, until very recently, Irish society was assumed to be a homogenous entity. Questions of 'difference', whether social, historical or cultural, received little acknowledgement or were completely ignored. This book is collection of essays written by Travellers and 'settled people'. As the title of the volume indicates, the writers have approached the theme of engagement and interaction between Travellers and 'settled people' in a new and dynamic way. They have traced the themes that bind both the Traveller and the non-Traveller communities today, in addition to those cultural aspects that remain distinctive to both communities. Travellers and the Settled Community is unique in its elucidation of the Traveller voice, the Traveller perspective and the important light this sheds on Irish society as it developed from the rural to the urban. The contributors to this volume reflect a new and revealing energy in Irish society, an impetus that jettisons the fixed and unchanging viewpoints of old and prefaces our shared multi-cultural future.

The "Traveler question" has been a major source of debate in Irish society for decades, centuries even, and appears no closer to being answered today. For as long as Travelers have roamed the roads of Ireland, they have been subjected to, at best, a sort of mythic, romanticized patronization, and at worst, vilification and outright hostility - but always as the "other" of Irish ethnic identity. Michael Hayes closely examines how images of Travelers have been created and distorted over the centuries, from the nineteenth-century "gipsilorists" to late-twentieth-century anthropological studies.

Anthropologists George and Sharon Gmelch have been studying the quasi-nomadic people known as Travellers since their fieldwork in the early 1970s, when they lived among Travellers and went on the road in their own horse-drawn wagon. In 2011 they returned to seek out families they had known decades before—shadowed by a film crew and taking with them hundreds of old photographs showing the Travellers' former way of life. Many of these images are included in this book, alongside more recent photos and compelling personal narratives that reveal how Traveller lives have changed now that they have left nomadism behind.

This book traces a number of common themes relating to the representation of Irish Travellers in Irish popular tradition and how these themes have impacted on Ireland’s collective imagination. A particular focus of the book is on the exploration of the Traveller as “Other”, an "Other" who is perceived as both inside and outside Ireland’s collective ideation. Frequently constructed as a group whose cultural tenets are in a dichotomous opposition to that of the “settled” community, this book demonstrates the ambivalence and complexity of the Irish Traveller “Other” in the context of a European postcolonial country. Not only has the construction and representation of Travellers always been less stable and “fixed” than previously supposed, these images have been acted upon and changed by both the Traveller and non-Traveller communities as the situation has demanded. Drawing primarily on little-explored Irish language sources, this volume demonstrates the fluidity of what is often assumed as reified or “fixed”. As evidenced in Irish-language cultural sources the image of the Traveller is inextricably linked with the very concept of Irish identity itself. They are simultaneously the same and “Other” and frequently function as exemplars of the hegemony of native Irish culture as set against colonial traditions. This book is an important addition to the Irish Studies canon, in particular as relating to those exciting and unexplored terrains hitherto deemed “marginal” - Traveller Studies, Romani Studies and Diaspora/Migration Studies to name but a few.
