Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III THE ACTION OF LIBERAL UNIONISTS The debates in the House of Commons and the publishing to the world of the text of Mr. Gladstone's Bills staggered the thinking portion of the British people. The newspapers day after day and week after week were filled with letters from distinguished men, quite as often from Liberals as from Conservatives, denouncing Mr. Gladstone's policy and demolishing the so-called arguments upon which he had proceeded. Eminent patriotic Irishmen like Mr. Lecky, Constitutional lawyers like Mr. Albert Dicey and Mr. Westlake, hard reasoners like Fitzjames Stephen, urged both from the English and the Irish point of view the impracticable nature of Gladstonian Home Rule, and pointed out the dangers and disasters that would result from any attempt to put it in force. In Ireland itself almost everything that was prosperous and progressive was opposed to it, and that which was most prosperous was most vehement in its opposition. It was said with truth that the elections showed that Mr. Parnell was supported by the large majority of the Irish population. But if the couple of million Irishmen who formed the minority included everything that was Protestant of every class, and almost everything that was prosperous of the propertied, commercial and professionali886] THE ACT OF UNION 5 classes, whether Protestant or Catholic, it is difficult to contend that the majority formed in any true sense an ' Irish nation.' The peasantry of Ireland differ assuredly in some respects from those ' honey bees' who, according to Shakespeare, teach ' The act of order to a peopled kingdom. They have a king and officers of sorts, ' In that commonwealth were grades and classes, magistrates and merchants. Mr. Gladstone had mistaken the Irish Nationalists f..

Book The Politics of Reform 1884

Download or read book The Politics of Reform 1884 written by Andrew Jones and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1972-05-25 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gladstone's second ministry was one of failure and frustration. Even Liberal apologists and the party faithful could find little more than the Reform Act to offset the record of disasters abroad or the disruption of Irishmen at home. For some it was sufficient, and 1884 was a landmark comparable to 1689. But this book is not a chronicle of electoral revolution; rather, it traces the purposes of politicians through those months when legislative activity was concentrated on Franchise and Redistribution. Light is shed on Gladstone's control over both Cabinet and Commons, on Salisbury's emergence as party leader from Conservative chaos after Disraeli's death, and on the anti-democratic nature of Parnell's party. The essential argument is that the British political world of the 1880s was a world unto itself. Dr Jones is concerned with the complex political interaction of personalities and groupings in this select society at a time of particular historical interest, when parties were on the eve of their fracture and realignment over Home Rule.

Book Lend Me Your Ears

Download or read book Lend Me Your Ears written by Antony Jay and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2010-10-28 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caligula, William Shakespeare, Crazy Horse, and 1,500 other commentators from ancient Greek philosophers to Sarah Palin trade remarks profound, caustic, trenchant, and humorous in this entertaining omnibus. Lend Me Your Ears has a British tinge, but American pols are well represented. Middle and Far Eastern sources are sparsely included. Jay, coauthor of the BBC radio and television series Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister, presents an eclectic assortment of bons mots alphabetically by author. Featuring some 300 quotations new to this edition, the book has an excellent keyword index. Jay's voracious pursuit of sources and discretion in selection are the linchpins that make this a valuable source. He notes in the introduction that "the number of new entries from earlier years is as large as ever, if not larger." Funeral orations, epitaphs, songs, cartoon captions, and slogans ("Burn, baby, burn") contribute to the hodgepodge. Both the pious (including Pius XII) and the rebarbative (Joseph McCarthy) have their say. Competing dictionaries of political maxims are largely nonexistent today. Some are attuned to American affairs, such as Wolfgang Mieder's Proverbs Are the Best Policy: Folk Wisdom and American Politics (2005). Other dictionaries compile the sayings of presidents, including Barack Obama in His Own Words (2007), edited by Lisa Rogak. Jay is especially adept at selecting scathing ripostes by both obscure and well-known British politicians, including Winston Churchill's comment on Stanley Baldwin: "The candle in that great turnip has gone out." Lend Me Your Ears invites readers to eavesdrop on Mark Twain, Sting, and Aeschylus. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All libraries; all levels. General Readers; Lower-division Undergraduates; Upper-division Undergraduates; Graduate Students; Researchers/Faculty; Two-year Technical Program Students; Professionals/Practitioners. Reviewed by C. B. Thurston.
