    When she started working with the aged more than 40 years ago, Ann Burack-Weiss began packing away the knowledge and skills she thought would help when she became older herself. It was not until she hit her mid-seventies that she realized she had packed sneakers to climb Mount Everest, not anticipating the crevices and chasms that constitute the rocky terrain of old age. The professional literature offered little help, so she turned to the late-life writing of beloved women authors who had bravely climbed the mountain and sent back news from the summit. Maya Angelou, Colette, Simone de Beauvoir, Joan Didion, Marguerite Duras, and Doris Lessing were among the many guides she turned to for inspiration. In 'The Lioness in Winter', Burack-Weiss blends an analysis of key writings from these and other famed women authors with her own wisdom to create a companion for older women and those who care for them.

    This book engages with ageing masculinities in Irish literature and visual culture, including fiction, drama, poetry, painting, and documentary. Exploring the shifting representations of older men from the early twentieth century to the present, the contributors analyse how a broad range of literary and visual texts construct, reinscribe, or challenge perceptions of older age. In doing so, they trace a shift from depictions of authority figures - often symbolising patriarchal dominance and oppression - to more nuanced, complex, and heterogeneous explorations of older men's embodied subjectivities and vulnerabilities. Exploring artists and writers such as Sen Keating, J.M. Synge, Teresa Deevy, Marina Carr, Seamus Heaney, Paul Muldoon, Derek Mahon, Kate O'Brien, John Banville, Colm Tibn, Bernard MacLaverty, Mike McCormack, Anne Griffin, and Claire Keegan, thechapters in thisbook attend to the symbolic as well as social significance of older men in Irish cultural expression
