Patrick Henry Pearse (1879–1916), a central figure in the Easter Rising, was not only a revolutionary leader but also a prolific writer whose work spanned political essays, speeches, poetry, short stories, and educational theory. His writings were instrumental in shaping the ideological foundation of Irish republicanism in the early 20th century.
