Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literature and the Literary Men of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. 1 of 2 Literam'a. With aids so abundant, the author has still, in no in stance, sacrificed his own judgment to the opinion of others; but has endeavored, in all cases, to present such views of the Litera ture and Literary Men of Great Britain and Ireland, as truth and j astice seemed to require aiming, throughout, to leave a correct impression of the moral influence which the life of each author, and each work noticed, is calculated to produce. He can not, however, withhold an expression of the deep solicitude with which he offers so important a production to the public; and in the language used by Burke under similar circumstances, he would 'desire one favor, that no part of this work may be j udged of by itself, and independently of the rest; for he is sensible he has not disposed his materials to abide the test of a captions con troversy, but of a sober and even forgiving examination; that they are not armed at all points for battle, but dressed to those who are willing to give a peaceful entrance to truth.'

Download or read book 1000 Years of Irish Prose Vol 1 written by Vivian Mercier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-07 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 1000 Years of Irish Prose, Vol. 1: The Literary Revival The new period of British colonization of Ireland which began under Queen Elizabeth and continued to the end of the seven teenth century created a fundamental schism in Irish life which has persisted to the present day. Where the old anglo-norman colonists of the twelfth century and after were largely assimilated by the prevailing Gaelic culture, and in any Case shared the religion of the; people they invaded, the new colonists set out to destroy the Gaelic culture they found in situ; they felt the less sympathy for it because it was associated in their minds with the Roman Catholic religion, which was regarded by both Scottish and English settlers as an abominable heresy. Thus, as in the Spanish conquest Of South America, the normally selfish outlook Of a colonizing group was reinforced by religious bigotry - as well as by genuine religious idealism. Intermarriage between colonizers and colonized, which had been the chief agency of norman-gaelic assimilation, was now out of the question. Religion, culture, political and economic status went hand in hand. Even in present-day Ireland the rough-and ready equation of an irish-gaelic name with Roman Catholicism and peasant origins is more often right than wrong.
