Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland a Study in Nationalism Dear Lady Desart, It was through your great kindness in 1913 that I was enabled to begin this book. I had most in mind, at that time, the direct upbuilding of which you and Captain Cuffe had given such models in Kilkenny - the woollen mills and the woodworks and tobacco culture. When I came back to the United States, as I wrote you, I was thinking almost altogether of the needless disorganizations of Irish life, and I believed there were corresponding organizations of American life which could be adapted to Ireland. An American might not easily imagine the salient educative facts that would strike an Irishman, but I was convinced that we could apply to ourselves much that had been quietly developing in the ways of equipping and directing and cultivating American citizenship. In spite of Ulster and Sir Edward Carson, national and imperial issues were scarcely in my mind at all, until August, 1914. Since August, 1914, we have seen Ireland grow more and more uneasy in the powerful currents that are sweeping through the world. With the coming of the war I confess I lost hold on my first intentions and have never been able to take them up again.

VIII THE NATIONAL LEGACY WHY NATIONALISM? It is not because one is infatuated with the Irish people that their nationalistic struggle is seen primarily as a human cause. The disabilities of Catholic Irishmen are important not because they are Irish or because they are Catholic but because they have disabilities. It is this that gives democratic sanction to the emphasis on their nationhood. There is another emphasis on nationhood, the cultural, which intrudes patent difficulties into the sphere of the state. This is so much the case that disabilities take the attention of many nationalists only because their culture and their peculiarity are affected. With such partisans there is frequently no middle way. Their differentiation becomes as sacred, exclusive and imperious as it dares. Such arrogance, however, inheres in all differentiation. It is often necessary to penalize it, and a pleasure to do so, but you cannot get rid of it by crushing it, only by directing it. Most of statecraft, indeed, unless it be leviathan or stone-age statecraft, consists in harnessing these barbarous and obnoxious varieties of the will to power. When you think of nationalism merely as group particularism it seems wholly unworthy of political science; and political scientists as a rule shy away from sanctioning nationalism. In some respects, I am afraid, the modern political scientist is not unlike the political economist of fifty years ago. He much prefers to deal with issues uncontaminated by human nature. The war has changed many things and the war may have changed this, but throughout discussions of government and the state one is still constantly aware of intense unwillingness to see good systematic thinking deranged by unmalleable conglomerates of fact. I...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Young Ireland: A Fragment of Irish History, 1840-1850 I have written this book in the intervals of a busy life, because I believed it was the best and last service I could render to Ireland. It contains a memoir of the public affairs of that country during a period of abnormal political activity a period to which may be traced, as to their fountain-head, many of the Opinions now universally current among the Irish people. My first aim was to make a new generation familiar with the truthfulness, simplicity, and real moderation of the men with whom, it was said, a new soul came into Ireland. The Young Ireland party, as their enemies in the first instance named them, and as they came in the end to name themselves, after having been long misrepresented, have in latter times been vindicated and. Applauded more than enough, but they have never I think been understood. What they aimed to do, and what they accomplished; their actual motives and their means of action, as disclosed in their private correspondence, and interpreted by one who shared their counsels, are set down in this book for the first time and will be found I think worthy of study by statesmen and publicists accustomed to meditate on the afiairs of Ireland.

Download or read book The Evolution of Irish Nationalist Politics written by Tom Garvin and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2005-09-13 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Tom Garvin's classic work studies the growth of nationalism in Ireland from the middle of the eighteenth century to modern times. It traces the continuity of tradition from earlier organisations, such as the United Irishmen and the agrarian Ribbonmen of the eighteenth century, through the followers of Daniel O'Connell, the Fenians and the Land League in the nineteenth century to the Irish political parties of today, including Sinn Féin, Fianna Fáil, Labour Party and Fine Gael. The dual nature of Irish nationalism is shown in sharp focus. Despite the secular and liberal leanings of many Irish leaders and theoreticians, their followers were frequently sectarian and conservative in social outlook. This book demonstrates how this dual legacy has influenced the politics of modern Ireland.

Download or read book Towards the Republic written by Aodh De Blacam and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Towards the Republic: A Study of New Ireland's Social and Political Aims The ideals which are the inspiration of the advancing Irish-Ireland movement, are summed up in the Gaelic League's watchword: Naisiun saor Gaedhealach a dheanamh d'Eirinn: to make a Free Gaelic Nation of Ireland. The object of this book is to trace the meaning of the large aim in some degree of detail. What do Freedom and Gaelicism mean in "real politics"? For completeness of argument, it has been needful to touch on some obvious first principles. No Irishman has doubts as to the justice of the people's cause and methods in the Land War, but it has been necessary to set forth the people's position in such cases in order to exhibit the validity of Irish-Ireland's whole claims. Gaels will have patience with these apologetic touches, remembering that what is axiomatic truth to Ireland is "extremism" to the stranger, and blasphemy to the Briton. Many opinions advanced in these pages will be condemned as "Extremist," and extreme they are as contrasted with the utterances of your Redmonds and Dillons, who have been at pains to reconcile Irish Nationality and English Imperialism, or to mix oil and water.

Download or read book Irish Freedom written by Richard English and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2007 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling and authoritative history of Irish nationalism from the award-winning and critically acclaimed author of Armed StruggleRichard English's brilliant new book, now available in paperback, is a compelling narrative history of Irish nationalism, in which events are not merely recounted but analysed. Full of rich detail, drawn from years of original research and also from the extensive specialist literature on the subject, it offers explanations of why Irish nationalists have believed and acted as they have, why their ideas and strategies have changed over time, and what effect Irish nationalism has had in shaping modern Ireland. It takes us from the Ulster Plantation to Home Rule, from the Famine of 1847 to the Hunger Strikes of the 1970s, from Parnell to Pearse, from Wolfe Tone to Gerry Adams, from the bitter struggle of the Civil War to the uneasy peace of the early twenty-first century. Is it imaginable that Ireland might - as some have suggested - be about to enter a post-nationalist period? Or will Irish nationalism remain a defining force on the island in future years? 'a courageous and successful attempt to synthesise the entire story between two covers for the neophyte and for the exhausted specialist alike' Tom Garvin, Irish Times
Download or read book Ireland written by Hugh F Kearney and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the Irish nation? Who is included in it? Are its borders delimited by religion, ethnicity, language, or civic commitment? And how should we teach its history? These and other questions are carefully considered by distinguished historian Hugh F. Kearney in Ireland: Contested Ideas of Nationalism and History. The insightful essays collected here all circle around Ireland, with the first section attending to questions of nationalism and the second addressing pivotal moments in the history and historiography of the isle. Kearney contends that Ireland represents a striking example of the power of nationalism, which, while unique in many ways, provides an illuminating case study for students of the modern world. He goes on to elaborate his revisionist “four nations” approach to Irish history. In the book, Kearney recounts his own development in the field and the key personalities, departments, and movements he encountered along the way. It is a unique portrait not only of a humane and sensitive historian, but of the historical profession (and the practice of history) in Britain, Ireland, and the United States from the 1940s to the late 20th century-at once public intellectual history and fascinating personal memoir.

Download or read book Rethinking Irish History written by Patrick O'Mahony and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1998 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rethinking Irish History provides a critical interpretation of the construction of Irish national identity in the longer perspective of history. Drawing on recent sociological theory, the authors demonstrate how national identity was invented and codified by a nationalist intelligentsia in the late nineteenth century. The trajectory of this national identity is traced as a process of crisis and contradiction. One of the central arguments is that the negative implications of Irish national identity have never been fully explored by social science.
