Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Irish Situation Five years have elapsed since the Easter Rising of 1916; six and a half since the outbreak of European War; eight since the formation of the Ulster Volunteer Force. These are the main marking points in the evolution which has transformed Ireland from a peaceful country into a theatre of operations for three armed forces, all differing in purpose and control; these milestones mark stages for Ireland on a new track of political development. But survey of the situation must begin a good deal farther back if it is to be intelligent, or intelligible to the general reader who has not closely followed Irish affairs. At the joining point between this century and the last the South African War furnished illustration of the permanent contradictions which characterise the relations between Ireland and Great Britain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland in the Last Fifty Years Perhaps one may say that the Irish Question, as it has shown itself through the centuries, goes even deeper than politics and economics. It is the result of a clash of two ways of life. England early evolved the conception of the State. We may even say that England was the first heir Of Rome, among modern nations, in the transmission of that conception. But it is a conception which under, most of its forms - and there have been several - has failed to. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Irish Question Everywhere I found the people very polite and court eons. Clergymen, landlords, tenants, laborers and busi ness men - representatives of all classes - talked freely of the troubles that were agitating the country. In some instances I have allowed these men to speak in these pages; in others have given their views in my own language. I desire to acknowledge the special courtesy shown me by Mr. Commissioner Vernon, who explained the practical working of the Land Act and gave me much valuable information besides; by Mr. H. A. Robinson, Local Government Inspector of Mayo and Galway, whose intimate knowledge of and sympathy with the poor people of those counties made his conversation extremely interesting and profitable; and by-dr. Neil son Hancock, whose familiarity with the statistics of Ireland is well known. The debates on Irish affairs in the House of Commons, which I was enabled through the kindness of Dr. Lyon Playfair to hear regularly while in London, gave me an excellent opportunity for studying the characteristics and relations of the men who have taken a leading part in these discussions; and I saw' their tactics in vigorous operation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Irish in America So, too, the lesson as to the practical value of organiza tion as a weapon of political warfare has not been lost, and coupled with the organized effort of her people here, has enabled Ireland to carry forward a land agitation which, in its beginnings seemed based upon a forlorn hope, but which now, in the light of recent events, seems certain to be crowned with an abiding success. Indeed, the fruits of a struggle renewed again and again during the eighty-five years that have elapsed since the union, are almost within reach, and the land agitation which at first was only a phase of the irrepressible con fiiet, is likely to prove the key which is at last to solve the problem of a home government for Ireland. Of this result the American Irish may well feel hopeful, and without them it is not too much to say its realization would have been indefinitely postponed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cause of Ireland, Pleaded Before the Civilized World No Irish-American who has followed, with anything like a kindly interest, the sufferings and struggles of the Irish at home during the last fifty years, but must have asked himself if these sufferings were never to end, or if such struggles were, at length, to be crowned by the long-prayed-for success. Yes - we have been long waiting, in our free homes beyond the Atlantic, for the end of these awful trials, prolonged century after century down to the present year, and borne with a fortitude and a hopefulness, which speak more eloquently than inspired voice or pen for the heroic temper of the Irish soul. We have contributed by word and deed, as the trial deepened, and the struggle became ever fiercer, to soothe the suffering whose source we were powerless to remove, and to aid the brave men and true who were battling for the cause of the Martyr-Nation.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland and the Home Rule Movement The great tendency which has been so marked a feature of Irish life in the course of the last decade to turn the attention of the people towards efforts at self improvement and the development of self-reliance without regard to English aid, English neglect, or English Opinion, excellent though it has been in every other respect, has had this one drawback - that there has grown up a generation of Englishmen, well intentioned towards our country, to whom the problems of Irish Government are an unknown quantity. The ignorance of Irish affairs in England is due partly to ourselves, but also to a natural heed lessness arising from distance and preoccupation with problems with which Englishmen are more intimately concerned.
