Fußnoten: | Volume I, 1900-40 contains introductory historical essays of building culture in Dublin from 1900 to 1939, followed by twenty-six case studies and an overview, in guidebook style, of c. 95 sites. This volume covers the years in the run-up to ̃ and during ̃ the battle for Irish independence, as well as the period of the early Free State. Much of the history touches on the roles of streets in revolution and of buildings in the construction of a new state the book serves as a survey of the cityʻs buildings over the period 1900 to 1939, not as a ̀best ofʻ but as a representation of architectural endeavour at the time. The case studies range from iconic situations such as the 1917 rebuilding of Sackville Street lower (later OʻConnell Street), to lesser-known structures like the concrete Oblates grotto, Inchicore (1929) or the public library, Drumcondra (1937). Each study is framed according to key historic questions, and raises issues around architectural technology and materials, patronage and urban planning, residents and ceremonial or daily use.
