Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures and Essays on Irish and Other Subjects It is now some years since I began to speak in Boston. Among the first of my efforts, Ireland was my theme. I endeavored, as best as I could, to tell her story. I was heard with generous interest, but it was the story, and not the teller, that inspired it. It was called for throughout the length and breadth of New England; it was repeated in city halls and in village lyceums. Old and young, grave and gay, listened to it with open ears and with eager hearts; and to many of them it seemed a new, and wild, and strange recital. It is no longer novel. It is now, not a story, but a drama; a black and fearful drama, which civilized nations gaze upon with a terrified astonishment, that has no power to weep. It was then gloomy and sad enough, and to those who know life only in its general comforts, it appeared a condition which it would be hard to render worse. But the presumptuousness of man is constantly rebuked by the vicissitude of events. It is but too surely so in this case. There was yet the vial of a deeper woe in store, and that vial is now open.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures and Essays, Vol. 2 of 2 The three journals named below are in opposition to the British government in Ireland, but with different degrees of antagonism. The Tablet is a paper in the interest of the Roman Catholic Church, and though English in its spirit and editorship, it sympathizes with the struggles going forward in Ireland. It denounces the Union, it pleads for Repeal but it does not commit itself to any danger of legal prosecution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures and Essays, Vol. 1 of 2 The greater part of the following pages consists of oral addresses, delivered in mixed and popular assemblies. The author, in giving them to the press, acts upon a desire expressed in various directions to see them in this form; and if they shall be read with a portion of the kindness with which they were heard, the author will be content. He is clearly aware, that they have, in full measure, the faults that mark the class of compositions to which they belong, but he trusts that they are not wholly wanting in some of the characteristic merits of such compositions. The author does not presume to attribute any permanent or critical value to these pages; yet to the author, personally, they have a greater value, though of another kind; they call up hours passed in living communion with his audiences; memories of generous sympathies, of hospitable bounties, of friendly encouragements, of general regard, which he would scarcely exchange for the proudest merely literary reputation.

Download or read book Lectures and Essays Vol 2 of 2 written by Henry Giles and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures and Essays, Vol. 2 of 2 This is the organ of "Young Ireland," and of a portion of the physical-force party. Still, though it hints at republicanism, it does not openly avow it. It professes loyalty to the imperial crown, but disowns the right of the imperial legislature to make laws for Ireland. The real purport of its views is, not simply repeal of the Union, but the absolute nullity of the Union. Meagher is its leading genius. "The Nation" was not strong enough for Mitchell, or Mitchell was too strong for "The Nation," and so he set up "The United Irishman." The United Irishman carries the doctrine of resistance out in its most logical consistency, and to its utmost consequences. It spits upon repeal, it cries for independence; it calls not only for a national parliament, but for national sovereignty. It laughs at "the golden link of the crown," and holds no terms with O'Connell, to whom this phrase, we believe, is attributed. It scouts Victoria, and mocks Conciliation Hall with as much scorn as it docs conciliation. It demands a republic at any cost, and with fierce earnestness it preaches the gospel of the pike. It tells the starving masses of Ireland that they cannot be worse off, and that, with courageous hearts and a strong right hand, they have the power to be better off. It goes even beyond a mere republic. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wanted an Irish Univeristy: Also, Essays on University and Kindred Subjects The Bill was, at all events, before the House of Commons, and had been for some time. What was Irish Ireland doing? Should the Bill in question ever become an Act of Parliament, it was bound to have far-reaching effects, whether for good or ill, on the fortunes of the National language as well as of Irish nationality. The Gaelic League might have reasonably been expected to show marked signs of activity, but apparently such was by no means the fact.
