Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Irish Labor Movement: From the 'Twenties to Our Own Day In sooth to ignore the Gaelic element in the survey generally is to leave the story of Irish Labor in the last hundred years less than a half told tale. On a broad view we might well re gard that story, till the later stages at all events, as a painful and often a lamentable record. Con nolly has spoken of a Via Dolorosa extending through three centuries. For the Irish toilers the last of the three might seem in some respects thedrabbest of all drab in general, with, at several stages, the terrible excitement of tragedy. That View is to a large extent true, But it is not all the truth. The Gaelic workers, who were numerous in all the provinces in the first half of the nine teenth century, had a Vivid interior life of their own, and unless we realize and understand that life we have only a superficial knowledge of their real position and history. Granted that for generations, through the absence of regular edu cation and of the merest elements of fair play in other regards, the minds of the Gaelic toilers had ceased to grow or to be really creative, the fact remains that they retained an enlivening share of the traditional lore and culture; of romance and poetry, of song and racy wisdom. The story is the same from Iveragh to Oriel, from Ring to Donegal. All these quarters just mentioned, long into the nineteenth century and in a measure to our own time - were centers of Irish poetical and other mental cultivation; the poet and the story-teller in homely pride of place and honor. Their history, like that of many kindred quarters, has both charm and pathos; and if it were widely known, if it had seized the popular imagination, as some day it surely will, we would all have a deeper, a more human conception of hosts of Irish workers who have gone before us. There would be not a little of glorious pride and sorrow inour minds as we looked back to their days and destinies.

Book Dawn in Ireland  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Dawn in Ireland Classic Reprint written by Marie Harrison and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dawn in Ireland Writing a book about Ireland at this time is necessarily an adventurous business. So much is happening so swiftly. The position changes not from month to month, but from day to day, and with the change in position there is a consequent change in the nature and power of the forces at work in the country. Indeed, it might be held that a book written in April would be out of date in June and hopelessly obsolete in August. But behind all that is transitory there remain certain permanent things. It is with affairs in Ireland as with the waves of the sea which amid all their transformations remain the same in substance, obedient to the same forces. This book has been made as an attempt to indicate some of the enduring facts and forces which underlie the appearance of Ireland to-day. Puzzled by endless apparent contradictions, observers are tempted at times to yield to hopelessness, and to declare that they can never understand the ways of that beautiful, perplexing land.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labour in Ireland: Labour in Irish History; The Reconquest of Ireland James Connonlly is Ireland's first Socialist martyr. To say so is not a rhetorical flourish. It is a simple historical fact that must be admitted even by those who dispute the wisdom of his actions and the excellence of his ideals. He died as a witness to his faith in the brotherhood of man as he wished to see it brought into being and shape in Ireland. Of all the leaders of the insurrection of Easter Monday, 1916, he was most in the tradition of Wolfe Tone and the United Irishmen. Wolfe Tone and the United Irishmen raised in Ireland the banner of the French Revolution. They were European as well as Nationalist in their ideas, and none the less Nationalist for being European. They believed in liberty, equality and fraternity, not as a piece, of inky or street-corner cant, but as the three golden essentials of the commonwealth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland in Insurrection: An Englishman's Record of Fact Have known Hugh Martin as a journalist for many years, and I believe him to be a patriotic Englishman and an honest man. When there fore I read his reports day by day on the happen ings in Ireland I was convinced that they were accounts of the truth, trustworthy as far as it is possible for anyone to obtain the exact detail of truth in such conditions as those in Ireland - where the search for it is difficult and dangerous - and not written with any poisonous intent to destroy the good fame of England. It seemed to me then, and it seems to me now after reading Mr. Martin's book, in which he has given a careful and considered narrative of his observations and experiences, that here is evidence which cannot be disregarded by English people who have any honesty of mind and any love for the reputation of their country. Official denial, evasion, sup pression, and distortion of facts cannot stand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Irish Unionism  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Irish Unionism Classic Reprint written by James Winder Good and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irish Unionism Anglo-Irish history for seven centuries is a record of the efforts of British statesmen to assert, extend, and consolidate their authority in Ireland. From the sword of Cromwell to the bribes of Castlereagh innumerable experiments have been tried; but since the beginning of the nineteenth century the instrument employed to enforce the will of the ruling Power has been the machinery set up by Pitt under the title of the Legislative Union. To one school of Irish political thought this measure represents the highest achievement of British statesmanship, and constitutes the keystone of the wide arch of empire. To another, the keystone figures rather as a fetter which binds Ireland helplessly to the chariot-wheels of her conquerors, destroys her individuality, and enables her rulers to tighten with one hand the grip on her throat while with the other they rifle her pockets.

Book How the Irish Became White

Download or read book How the Irish Became White written by Noel Ignatiev and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '...from time to time a study comes along that truly can be called ‘path breaking,’ ‘seminal,’ ‘essential,’ a ‘must read.’ How the Irish Became White is such a study.' John Bracey, W.E.B. Du Bois Department of Afro-American Studies, University of Massachussetts, Amherst The Irish came to America in the eighteenth century, fleeing a homeland under foreign occupation and a caste system that regarded them as the lowest form of humanity. In the new country – a land of opportunity – they found a very different form of social hierarchy, one that was based on the color of a person’s skin. Noel Ignatiev’s 1995 book – the first published work of one of America’s leading and most controversial historians – tells the story of how the oppressed became the oppressors; how the new Irish immigrants achieved acceptance among an initially hostile population only by proving that they could be more brutal in their oppression of African Americans than the nativists. This is the story of How the Irish Became White.
