Book ORANGEISM  A HISTORICAL PROFILE

Download or read book ORANGEISM A HISTORICAL PROFILE written by Kevin Haddick-Flynn and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orangeism: A Historical Profile traces the Orange movement from its pre-Reformation beginnings in the French principality of Orange, to its role in 21st century Ulster. This narrative history offers a lucid account which explains how the Orange tradition took root and developed. Many important events are examined, including the Orange/Green controversies of the 19th century, the Order’s role in the creation of Northern Ireland, its influence during the Stormont era and its stance during the ‘Troubles’. The book also features hard-to-get data provided on the Order’s associated bodies: The Apprentice Boys of Derry, the Purple Order and the Black Preceptory, and provides details of their rituals and lodge practices. International Orangeism and the Order’s role in popular culture are explained and apprised, and the stage is filled with historic figures. Meticulously researched and written without malice, Orangeism: A Historical Profile embodies a reevaluation of accepted views and includes information from unused, usually sealed, archives. Praise for the First Edition: “At last there is an excellent, reliable and absorbing account of Orangeism” – Eamonn Phoenix, The Irish News “A thorough and determinedly unbiased account … written with great enthusiasm” – Niall Savage, The Sunday Business Post

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Orangeism: Its Origin and History It has been said by Lord Bolingbroke, that the erring nature of man, and the constant state of affairs in this mutable world, often preclude the reception of materials from tradition, and even sometimes from his tory, but such as are generally uncertain in the one case, and perhaps greatly altered from the original in the other. Where the early ages of a Society may be enveloped in some obscurity, though curiosity may prompt to trace it through many Of its intricate and diversified meanderings, yet the abilities of the author will be misspent, and the time of the reader wasted, who may rely on such recitations as upon authentic history. Though it is true that tradition may be often fabulous, and even history occasionally uncertain, yet good ore may be sometimes dug out of the traditions of mankiiid; and the writings of uncertain authors, when patiently sifted, may oftentimes produce pure mineral. It is an Old maxim with philosophers, that it is difficult to understand things thoroughly, un less their origin can be traced, and their principles of action clearly defined. The closer, then, that the beginning of the Orange Society can be inves tigated, and the great and momentous circumstances out of which it grew understood, the more must the mind be informed, the reader gratified, and the work itself rendered complete.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Orangeism: Its Origin, Its Rise, and Its Decline This was the beginning of those Penal Laws which honest Englishmen have learned in the present day to be ashamed off - laws which robbed a people of their inheritance, and sent them in droves to the English shambles, While their own countrymen were aiding in the slaughter or reap ing the benefits of it, and fattening upon the blood of their kindred. William was not a fanatic. He was too good a soldier to be cruel. In fact, that he would have restrained the bigotry of those around him is made evident. But he was made King by the Protestant party, and the tenth part of the population of this island were determined, in the words of Gloster, that they would not be called fools as well as villains, and having got the advantage they were resolved to keep it. Accord ingly the minority, headed by their clergy, insti tuted a reign of persecution, for which they cannot even claim the palliation of avarice, seeing that it was carried out with unexampled and unnecessary cruelty. A strange event in the history of nations - onetenth part of the popu lation set about exterminating the remain ing nine. The Irish Peers and Cominoners of the Catholic persuasion who attended on the summoning of the next Parliament in 1692 were asked to swear that the Mass was damnable; they left the House in a body, and the political existence of the Irish Catholic became extinct. Mitchel says, referring to this incident, that thereafter they had no more influence upon public affairs than have the red Indians in the United Sta The same monarch who signed the death warrant of the Machine, of Glencoe, gave his Royal assent to Bills which were a direct breach of faith with the Irish people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The crisis of Ulster Unionism and the future of Northern Ireland The fissures that have split the United Kingdom in the last decades have run through Northern Ireland. Since the 1998 Good Friday Agreement, the fragile peace has been threatened by Brexit, the rise and fall of the D U P and the failure of power-sharing arrangement between the main parties at the Stormont Assembly. As the very future of Northern Ireland is now in jeopardy, will Britain face up to its imperial legacy and address the deep inequalities that remain in the aftermath of the Troubles, and the uneven development of the 'New Ireland'?

What is the future of the Union in the post-Brexit reality? How will the relationship between Northern Ireland and Westminster develop? Can the United Kingdom survive?

Book Ireland s Great Famine and Popular Politics

Download or read book Ireland s Great Famine and Popular Politics written by Enda Delaney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ireland’s Great Famine of 1845–52 was among the most devastating food crises in modern history. A country of some eight-and-a-half-million people lost one million to hunger and disease and another million to emigration. According to land activist Michael Davitt, the starving made little or no effort to assert "the animal’s right to existence," passively accepting their fate. But the poor did resist. In word and deed, they defied landlords, merchants and agents of the state: they rioted for food, opposed rent and rate collection, challenged the decisions of those controlling relief works, and scorned clergymen who attributed their suffering to the Almighty. The essays collected here examine the full range of resistance in the Great Famine, and illuminate how the crisis itself transformed popular politics. Contributors include distinguished scholars of modern Ireland and emerging historians and critics. This book is essential reading for students of modern Ireland, and the global history of collective action.
