Book excerpt: Excerpt from Macariae Excidium, or the Destruction of Cyprus: Being a Secret History of the War of the Revolution in Ireland The Members of the Irish Archaeological Society are presented, in this volume, with the Macariae Excidium, an account of the War of the Revolution in Ireland from 1688 to 1691, by Colonel Charles O'Kelly. The Colonel's work, being the only narrative of that contest known to exist from the pen of an Irish Officer on the side of King James II., and being, so far, calculated to throw light on an interesting portion of our history from the precise quarter whence it was most needed, had engaged the attention of the Society, from the period of its formation. At the first General Meeting of the Society, No. 202, Great Brunswick-street, Dublin, May 3rd, 1841, the Report from the Provisional Council, read by the Secretary, the Rev. James Henthorn Todd, announced the Irish Colonels work, as the "third tract," intended for publication; and to be "edited by George Petrie, Esq., from a manuscript which had recently been added to the collection of Trinity College."

Excerpt: ...the most wealthy, powerful, loyal, and gallant races in Munster. The head of the name, Donat or DonoughO'Callaghan, who was possessed of large estates and several castles, was distinguished as a member of the Sovereign Council of Kilkenny, and in other posts of the civil magistracy, amongst his countrymen; while, in the national army, of which his brother, Colonel Callaghan O' Callaghan, was a brave and skilful officer, there were, according to Dr. Callaghan, above 500 of the name, of the rank of gentlemen. The Doctor's words, writing in France, in December, 1652, are: " De la seule branchedes Callaghans de Muskry dont je suis, il s'est trouuv plus de deux cens gentilshommes sous les armes en 1641, & de l'autre plus de trois cens, tous combattans pour la foy catholique,"--of whom, he adds, "sont morts vn tres grand nombre de mes proches parents, mesme de mes neveux." By the fatal results of that contest, as well to the old Irish in general, as to the royal cause, almost all of the O'Callaghans, on this side of the Shannon, were those Irish potentates is, "That they will not exact any Black Rents, for the future, from the Inkabitants of Cork, Youghal, or Kingsale." It may be noted, in a work connected with the Revolution of 1688, that, in the history of these islands, we read, so late as the year 1691, of plans to pacify Celtic Chieftains by money, in in the case of William III.'s government in Scotland, and the heads of the Highland clans, who were the adherents of James II. Having mentioned how, with the "winter" of that year, the Highlanders "recommenced their hostilities," upon which, Lord Breadalbane, a member of William's government in Scotland, set on foot "a scheme for...

Download or read book The Jacobite Duchess written by Frances Nolan and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2021 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascinating life of Frances Jennings, elder sister of Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough, charting her marriages and changes of fortune, her exile and return, her ambition, political manoeuvring and sincere piety.Frances Jennings, elder sister of Sarah, duchess of Marlborough, had an interesting and eventful life, most notably as the influential wife of Richard Talbot, earl of Tyrconnell, Catholic viceroy of Ireland under James II. Born circa 1649 into a Hertfordshire gentry family, she was a noted beauty at the Restoration court. There, she met and married George Hamilton, a Catholic officer who, after 1667, served in Louis XIV's army. In Paris, Frances raised three daughters, converted to Catholicism, and became an active member of the English Catholic émigré community. Following Hamilton's death, she remarried to Richard Talbot. As vicereine of Ireland, Frances helped re-establish Catholic hegemony, assisting in the foundation of convents and re-consecration of Christ Church cathedral. During the Williamite-Jacobite War in Ireland (1689-91), Frances fled to James II's exiled court in France. In 1691, she received word that her husband, now Jacobite duke of Tyrconnell, had died. Attainted for high treason, she used the Marlboroughs' influence to recover her Irish estates. In 1708, she returned to Dublin, where she died in 1731. Highlighting Frances's political manoeuvrings, religious identity and deep family attachments, this book portrays a complex and contested figure, a woman who acted on multiple stages, in diverse roles, challenging expectations of rank, gender, and 'nationality' in unexpected ways.te-Jacobite War in Ireland (1689-91), Frances fled to James II's exiled court in France.

Download or read book Seventeenth Century Ireland New Gill History of Ireland 3 written by Raymond Gillespie and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2006-10-24 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Seventeenth-Century Ireland, Professor Raymond Gillespie, one of Ireland's most eminent historians, tries to understand Ireland in the seventeenth century in a new way. Most surveys of seventeenth-century Ireland approach the period using war, conquest, plantation and colonisation as their organising themes. It does not see Ireland as a passive receptor of colonial ideas imposed from above. In fact, Professor Gillespie argues that the seventeenth century was a uniquely creative moment in Ireland's history, as the various social and political groups within the country tried to forge new compromises. He also shows how and why they failed to do so. Well-established ideas of monarchy, social hierarchy and honour were under pressure in a fast-changing world. Political, religious, social and economic circumstances were all in flux. The common ambition of every faction was the creation of a usable focus of governance. Thus plantations, the constitutional experiments of Wentworth in the 1630s, the Confederation of the 1640s, the republican 1650s and the royalist reaction of the latter part of the century can be seen not simply as episodes in colonial domination but as part of an on-going attempt to find a modus vivendi within Ireland, often compromised by external influences. This book is not simply a narrative history of politics in seventeenth-century Ireland. It is a social history of governance that, while dealing with the main political, religious and economic developments, has at its interpretative core the process of making a new society out of competing factions.

Download or read book Ireland and the End of the British Empire written by Helen O'Shea and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1949, Ireland left the Commonwealth and the British Empire began its long fragmentation. The relationship between the new Republic of Ireland and Britain was a complex one however, and the traditional assumption that the Republic would universally support self-determination overseas and object to 'imperialism' does not hold up to historical scrutiny. In reality, for economic and geopolitical reasons, the Republic of Ireland played an important role in supporting the Empire- demonstrated clearly in Ireland's active involvement in the Cyprus Emergency of the 1950s. As Helen O'Shea reveals, while the IRA formed immediate links with EOKA and the Cypriot rebels, the Irish government and the Irish Church supported the British line- which was to retain Cyprus as the Middle-Eastern base of the British Empire following the loss of Egypt. Ireland and the End of the British Empire challenges the received historiography of the period and constitutes a valuable addition to our understanding of Ireland and the British Empire.
