Download or read book Catholic Emancipation written by Wendy Hinde and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1992 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roman Catholicism remained a threat to the English constitution for three centuries following the Reformation, and virulent hatred of popery was widespread among Parliament and public alike. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, with Europe in revolutionary turmoil, Britain's stability and safety were seen to depend on defending the Protestant constitution, and to many this meant continuing to exclude Catholics from political and public life--disabilities bitterly resented especially among the predominantly Catholic Irish. In this book, Wendy Hinde examines the interaction of events and personalities in the sixteen months from January 1828 to April 1829 which brought the issue to a crisis, culminating in the defiant election of Catholic activist Daniel O'Connell for County Clare in July 1828 and 'a glorious and bloodless victory' for the Irish Catholics and their unlikely champion, the Duke of Wellington. Wellington stood firm against strong public opposition, fierce resistance in the Commons and the Lords, and the intransigence of King George IV, who believed that he was bound by his coronation oath to maintain the rights and privileges of the Church of England. Finally, on 13 April 1829, after earlier sacking the entire Cabinet and changing his mind overnight, the embattled King put his signature to the Catholic relief bill, and five weeks later the first Irish MP took his seat in Parliament. In tracing this vexed passage of a bill described by one of its opponents as 'the most fatal, the most infatuated and suicidal measure ever adopted by a British Parliament', Wendy Hinde considers Catholic emancipation in relation to other important aspects of the contemporary political scene: pressure for parliamentary reform, the changing relationship between Lords and Commons, the declining power of the monarch and the rise of Irish nationalism. She shows that Catholic emancipation did not fatally undermine the English constitution, as many had feared; nor, as others had hoped, did it bring peace, prosperity and an end to sectarian discord to the Irish people. However, in demonstrating that constitutional change was possible and that public pressure could be brought to bear on the government without bloodshed, it opened the way for the further political, social and economic reforms of the 1830s.
Download or read book Crown Church and Constitution written by Jörg Neuheiser and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much scholarship on nineteenth-century English workers has been devoted to the radical reform politics that powerfully unsettled the social order in the century’s first decades. Comparatively neglected have been the impetuous patriotism, royalism, and xenophobic anti-Catholicism that countless men and women demonstrated in the early Victorian period. This much-needed study of the era’s “conservatism from below” explores the role of religion in everyday culture and the Tories’ successful mobilization across class boundaries. Long before they were able to vote, large swathes of the lower classes embraced Britain’s monarchical, religious, and legal institutions in the defense of traditional English culture.

Download or read book The King and the Catholics written by Antonia Fraser and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the eighteenth century, the Catholics of England lacked many basic freedoms under the law: they could not serve in political office, buy or inherit land, or be married by the rites of their own religion. So virulent was the sentiment against Catholics that, in 1780, violent riots erupted in London—incited by the anti-Papist Lord George Gordon—in response to the Act for Relief that had been passed to loosen some of these restrictions. The Gordon Riots marked a crucial turning point in the fight for Catholic emancipation. Over the next fifty years, factions battled to reform the laws of the land. Kings George III and George IV refused to address the “Catholic Question,” even when pressed by their prime ministers. But in 1829, through the dogged work of charismatic Irish lawyer Daniel O’Connell and the support of the great Duke of Wellington, the watershed Roman Catholic Relief Act finally passed, opening the door to the radical transformation of the Victorian age. Gripping, spirited, and incisive, The King and the Catholics is character-driven narrative history at its best, reflecting the dire consequences of state-sanctioned oppression—and showing how sustained political action can triumph over injustice.
