Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Address to the Irish People At the time of the Union Pitt and his Irish alter ego, Lord Castlereagh, were openly favourable to the Catholic claims. It was notorious that but for the well-founded expectation of the Catholics that they would be at once admitted to the Imperial Parliament, the passing of the Act of Union would have been a far more difficult and dangerous, if not an impossible under taking. Andit is probable enough thatbut for George III. Sinsane obstinacy a measure of Catholic Emancipation might have been carried almost simultaneously with the Act of Union but bigotry was unabashed and vigorous, and the modern jealousy of the direct influence of the Crown in politics, though intense where it existed, was anything but universal. Pitt' honourably strove to overcome the King's opposition failing in one serious effort, he is hardly to be blamed for' refusing to enter upon a desperate constitutional struggle at a time when the revolutionary forces in England seemed so dangerously strong, and when the aspect of foreign affairs was so threatening. Yet at Pitt's death 1a golden opportunity passed away for ever. For more than a quarter of a century no Minister was found who both could and would carry Catholic Emancipation through both Houses. And the Minister who did finally carry it adopted the measure simply as a lesser evil than insurrection, and accompanied it with circumstances of injustice and insult.

This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 810 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters on the Condition of the People of Ireland The letters which form this book were written during a tour of five months over nearly every part of Ireland, and were first published at intervals in The Times newspaper, immediately after they were written, in the period between August, 1845, and January, 1846. The letters were originally written in consequence of a commission offered to me, by that great public journal, which I undertook to perform, to lay before the public, in a readable form, my impressions during a tour through Ireland, and to state what, of the many prevailing opinions and anomalies, on careful observation, appeared to me to be the true condition of the Irish people. In undertaking this duty, I was unshackled and undirected by any further instructions whatever. In the course of its fulfilment, I conceived it to be desirable, not only to depict the actual condition of the Irish people, but to examine into the causes which led to that condition, and to suggest, as I proceeded, what appeared to me to be the most feasible remedies.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Irish People and the Irish Land: A Letter to Lord Lifford; With Comments on the Publications of Lord Dufferin and Lord Rosse And lastly, I deny that it is either intended or adapted to deprive the Protestant proprietors of all influence over the people. On the contrary, it is intended and adapted to strengthen, or rather create, their legitimate influence, by removing the bitter sources Of heart-burning, hatred, and discontent. I admit that it is intended - it is a total failure if it be not adapted - to deprive a proprietary whom your Lordship correctly designates as Protestant, of a power of dominion and coercion. It is intended to deprive the landlord, whether Protestant or Catholic, Of that dominion over his tenant which the odious power Of arbitrary eviction enables him to enforce. I suspect very much that this subject of influence or personal dominion over the people, lies at the very root of the question we are discussing, and that resistance to tenant right is far Oftener a struggle to maintain a system of vassalage than an effort to preserve any right Of property in land.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Authentic History of Ireland and Its People This is quite natural. Nations, like individuals, when once fallen, are soon forgotten; and Ireland has; perhaps, no reason to complain of the treatment she receives from a cold and pitiless world. A French writer once said: Nothing is so successful as success, and it would seem that alone ensures the admira tion of the world. Such, alas! Is history. Those sufferings that attract not the stranger have rendered her more clear to the hearts of her children. Love of country is a sentiment common to all people, yet I sometimes think no people on earth loved their country half so intensely as the Irish people loved their native Erin, and if they treasure in their hearts the glorious sufferings and heroic deeds of their fathers, let not malice chide them, for hope in a joyous future is all they have left. And yet, you who are not of them, mark me well, theirs is a history for which no people need blush. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book How the Irish Saved Civilization written by Thomas Cahill and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2010-04-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A book in the best tradition of popular history—the untold story of Ireland's role in maintaining Western culture while the Dark Ages settled on Europe. • The perfect St. Patrick's Day gift! Every year millions of Americans celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but they may not be aware of how great an influence St. Patrick was on the subsequent history of civilization. Not only did he bring Christianity to Ireland, he instilled a sense of literacy and learning that would create the conditions that allowed Ireland to become "the isle of saints and scholars"—and thus preserve Western culture while Europe was being overrun by barbarians. In this entertaining and compelling narrative, Thomas Cahill tells the story of how Europe evolved from the classical age of Rome to the medieval era. Without Ireland, the transition could not have taken place. Not only did Irish monks and scribes maintain the very record of Western civilization -- copying manuscripts of Greek and Latin writers, both pagan and Christian, while libraries and learning on the continent were forever lost—they brought their uniquely Irish world-view to the task. As Cahill delightfully illustrates, so much of the liveliness we associate with medieval culture has its roots in Ireland. When the seeds of culture were replanted on the European continent, it was from Ireland that they were germinated. In the tradition of Barbara Tuchman's A Distant Mirror, How The Irish Saved Civilization reconstructs an era that few know about but which is central to understanding our past and our cultural heritage. But it conveys its knowledge with a winking wit that aptly captures the sensibility of the unsung Irish who relaunched civilization.
