The Easter Rising is examined as a pivotal moment in Irish history, with contrasting perspectives on its significance. Supporters view it as a necessary act of defiance against British rule, arguing it highlighted the need for home rule and ignited nationalism among Irish Catholics. Critics, however, contend that the uprising was poorly supported and led to unnecessary loss of innocent lives. This seminar paper explores these conflicting narratives, illustrating the enduring debate over the event's legacy and its role in shaping Ireland's path towards independence.
