Book The New Birth of Ireland  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The New Birth of Ireland Classic Reprint written by Louis G. Redmond-Howard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Birth of Ireland Mr Balfour once observed that the Irish Question had almost become synonymous with English polities. He was not far wrong, for it is perfectly true that for close upon a century the Nationalist party has dominated with local grievances the whole course of Imperial policy. Nevertheless the Irish Question is not, intrinsically, a party question at all, nor indeed should it ever have been allowed to become one. It shall therefore be the primary intention of this volume to analyse the situation down to those constituent elements into which it must eventually resolve itself before its anomalous factors can be discussed; polities proper will be introduced only when they become absolutely essential to a right understanding of the tangle into which they have thrown economic controversies.

Book New Ireland  Classic Reprint

Download or read book New Ireland Classic Reprint written by A. M. Sullivan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Ireland Within considerably less than half a century, changes, social and political, accomplishing a veritable revolution, have taken place in Ireland. In the following pages I have undertaken, not so much to picture them in all their phases, or to write a formal history of the period, as to sup ply, chie y from personal observation, a series of sketches or narratives which may perhaps assist in the readier and more correct appreciation of visible results. I have, indeed, been mindful of the fact that this work would be published, and, if I may say it, be read, in England; yet I decided not to write it either for or at the English people, but to tell my story in my own way, and from my own point of view. I do not pretend to be dispassionate. I have borne - as will be seen in what follows - an active part in some of the stormiest scenes of Irish public life for at least a quarter of a century; and. I wish to hold my place as a man of decided views and strong convictions. I trust, however, it may be found that I have taken thought of the responsibilities which devolve upon one who attempts a contribution, no matter how hum ble, to the history of his time, not to the controversies of politics or polemics.

Book The New Ireland  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The New Ireland Classic Reprint written by Sydney Brooks and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Ireland I spent a couple of months in Ireland in the autumn of 1906. It was the first time I had visited the country. Both these facts are probably apparent enough in the chapters that follow, but I state them here, thus nakedly, partly as an excuse, and partly as an explanation. The substance of this book appeared originally in the form of a series of twelve articles that I contributed to the Daily Mail during December, 1906, and January, 1907. By the courtesy of the editor I have been permitted to reproduce them, with such changes and amplifications - neither few nor inconsiderable - as I have thought fit to make. A similar indulgence has been shown to me by the editor of the Morning Post in regard to two articles, one on the Gaelic League and the other on the I. A. O. S., that were first published in his columns. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Patriot s History of Ireland  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Patriot s History of Ireland Classic Reprint written by Mary Francis Cusack and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Patriot's History of Ireland I Have been asked to write a short, concise History of Ireland for the benefit of those who have not time to read a larger work, and for the use of schools, as an Introduction to Irish History. I have complied with this request; but the reader should remember that it requires some care and thought to understand a history written with care and thought, and that, while "stories" about Ireland may amuse, and rudely-written rhymes may excite, it requires something higher, something of which Irishmen are specially capable, to enable them to like and to profit by what requires some study. This History is intended for thoughtful men and women, as well as for thoughtful boys and girls. It contains the result of many years' careful and anxious study, given to the reader in the form in which, as I hope, it will be most easily understood and remembered. It is not intended to take the place of a larger History, nor is it intended for the senior classes in colleges; for such use a larger work, containing more general information, given in the form best suited for students, is now ready.

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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work takes Irish history from the Act of Union in 1801 through the next ten years of its volatile history and relationship with England. As a contemporary account saturated with documentary evidence by an astute Catholic political historian it is unsurprising that it too caused a scandal. Upon refusing to pay a libel charge, Plowden fled to France where he ended his days at the Scots College in Paris. Plowden's History is an essential resource for understanding the making of Ireland. --both works available together for the first time since original publication --continuation of the above work --contemporary Catholic account of the first ten turbulent years of the Union

This inscription they had visited in a previous year. Further, the quick eye Of the hostess of Dunecht had caught sight of some curious sculptures on a stone by the road-side on the way to the minus cule inscription; and other like stones in the neighbourhood had been shewn in Stuart's two volumes of Sculptural Stones of Scotland.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Young Ireland: A Fragment of Irish History, 1840-1850 I have written this book in the intervals of a busy life, because I believed it was the best and last service I could render to Ireland. It contains a memoir of the public affairs of that country during a period of abnormal political activity a period to which may be traced, as to their fountain-head, many of the Opinions now universally current among the Irish people. My first aim was to make a new generation familiar with the truthfulness, simplicity, and real moderation of the men with whom, it was said, a new soul came into Ireland. The Young Ireland party, as their enemies in the first instance named them, and as they came in the end to name themselves, after having been long misrepresented, have in latter times been vindicated and. Applauded more than enough, but they have never I think been understood. What they aimed to do, and what they accomplished; their actual motives and their means of action, as disclosed in their private correspondence, and interpreted by one who shared their counsels, are set down in this book for the first time and will be found I think worthy of study by statesmen and publicists accustomed to meditate on the afiairs of Ireland.
