Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Irish parliament was both the scene of frequent political battles and an important administrative and legal element of the state machinery of early modern Ireland. This institutional study looks at how parliament dispatched its business on a day-to-day basis. It takes in major areas of responsibility such as creating law, delivering justice, conversing with the executive and administering parliamentary privilege. Its ultimate aim is to present the Irish parliament as one of many such representative assemblies emerging from the feudal state and into the modern world, with a changing set of responsibilities that would inevitably transform the institution and how it saw both itself and the other political assemblies of the day.

Book Neither Kingdom Nor Nation

Download or read book Neither Kingdom Nor Nation written by Neil Longley York and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using Anglo-Irish attempts to define and defend their civil rights, Neil Longley York demonstrates how political ideology is played out in a social context. His study begins with seventeenth-century expressions of Anglo-Irish grievance and proceeds, via an examination of patriot writings, to the union of the British and Irish parliaments in 1800. The author traces the development of an Irish constitutional tradition, which he sees as nationalistic and revolutionary, from its origin in seventeenth-century Protestant and Catholic sources and analyzes the impact of this tradition on Irish political institutions and on Ireland's place in the eighteenth-century British imperial system. He also shows how Irish Catholics helped to articulate a constitutional tradition that is normally thought of as originating with the Anglo-Irish Ascendancy. Thus, for York, the 1643 Argument of Patrick Darcy, a Catholic, deserves as prominent a place in the emergence of Irish constitutionalism as William Molyneux's more famous 1698 Case of Ireland Stated. The author's comparison of the Anglo-Irish to their American contemporaries allows him to put the Anglo-Irish problem into a larger context and to ask questions that Irish specialists have tended to pass over. That the Anglo-Irish talked the same constitutional language as their Revolutionary American cousins while pursuing different objectives is, according to York, a reminder that constitutional disquisition cannot be separated from social and political context. This is a notion rarely touched on by Irish historians but frequently explored at length by specialists in Revolutionary American history. This engaging study will prove especially useful to Irish studies specialists--particularly those interested in eighteenth-century Ireland and the Anglo-Irish Protestant Ascendancy, to students of British political and intellectual history, and to anyone interested in constitutional history presented in a socio-political context. Neil Longley York is an associate professor of history and past director of the American studies program at Brigham Young University. He is the author of Mechanical Metamorphosis: Technological Change in Revolutionary America (1985) and editor of Toward a More Perfect Union: Six Essays on the Constitution (1988). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One of the most rewarding books on eighteenth-century Ireland published in the last generation.--Gerard O�Brien, Magee College, University of Ulster

Book John Redmond and Irish Parliamentary Traditions

Download or read book John Redmond and Irish Parliamentary Traditions written by Martin O'Donoghue and published by . This book was released on 2024-08-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New and fresh perspectives on an influential Irish nationalist politician. This collection explores the political life of John Redmond and the Irish Parliamentary Party tradition, emphasizing his early career and offering a new perspective on the legacy of the Redmond family. Using a longue durée approach, the volume spans the nineteenth-century Land War through the 1952 death of Bridget Redmond, the last member of the family elected to parliament. The book brings together an outstanding lineup of scholars from different disciplines who offer a range of new viewpoints on Redmond, the IPP, and its origins and legacies. Drawing on printed and archival sources, essays consider the influence of leaders Isaac Butt and Charles Stewart Parnell on Redmond, examine aspects of Redmond's political philosophy, reflect on the party's actions during World War I, and offer a stimulating reassessment of Redmond's attitude to women's suffrage. Taken together, they explore the Home Rule movement in a broader context, examining the continuities and discontinuities between the IPP and the parties that succeeded it. Further, the volume offers a new analysis of gender and politics in independent Ireland through an exploration of the suffrage movement and the career of Bridget Redmond. Encompassing the contemporary context of the post-Brexit landscape, this book will appeal to scholars, students, and readers with an interest in Anglo-Irish relations.

Book A Discourse Perspective on Daniel O Connell s Repeal Movement

Download or read book A Discourse Perspective on Daniel O Connell s Repeal Movement written by Davide Mazzi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-21 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no doubt that Daniel O’Connell can be hailed as a towering figure of nineteenth-century Irish politics. In this book, however, a different angle is taken on O’Connell’s centrality to Irish public discourse. Thus, rather than adding to the vast body of research works on O’Connell’s politics or the history of Catholic Emancipation and Repeal, this study provides a discourse perspective on the Liberator’s oratorical skills, along with the general perception of O’Connell as shaped by the press of his age. What rhetorical strategies did O’Connell implement in order to persuade the Catholics of Ireland that he was the man to make their voice heard by the British authorities?; How were O’Connell’s figure, his followers and his ideology assessed by nationalist and unionist print media? The volume addresses these research questions by combining the study of public speaking with news discourse within an integrated approach to the Irish public sphere in the early 1840s.

Download or read book Ireland Since the Union written by Justin H. Mccarthy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland Since the Union: Sketches of Irish History, From 1798 to 1886 When the Liberal vernmcnt entered into ofiice in the early spring of 1880, Mr. Parnell was the chosen leader of the Irish Parliamentary party. That party, in obedience to the Wishes of the Irish people, sat in opposition to the new Government, and announced their intention of sitting in opposition to any Government that refused to recognise the right of Ireland to regulate her own local affairs after her own fasliion. That resolve, apparently a slight thing in itself, had a deeper significance in it than many politicians at that time were keen enough to perceive. Up to that hour every Irish party in Parliament had been made the victim of a spurious tradition which forced them into an alliance with the Whigs, and dragged them helpless and hopeless at the tail of every successive Whig Administration or Whig Opposition. The recent elections, which have for the first time severed the connection between the Whigs and the Radicals by creating the amazing whig-tory alliance, were the fitting sequel to and the fitting justification of the attitude of the followers of Mr. Parnell in 1880. A few fossil members of the old sham Home Rule school persisted for some time in sitting below the gangway on the Government side of the House, but these have all vanished from the field of Irish politics, and their place knows them no more.

Book The Irish Parliament in the Eighteenth Century

Download or read book The Irish Parliament in the Eighteenth Century written by David Hayton and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published to mark the two hundreth anniversary of the Act of Union between Great Britain and Ireland, which took effect on 1 January 1801, this collection of essays explores the history of the independent Irish parliament which the Act of Union extinguished; a subject of interest not just to students of Irish history, but also in its European context as an unusually successful example of a provincial representative institution in a composite monarchy. Traditionally, Irish historians have been interested in the history of the Dublin parliament as an arena for high-political conflict or as a forum for the development and expression of Anglo-Irish patriot ideology. By contrast, this volume looks at parliament as an institution, the role of the house of commons in the collection an expenditure of public money, and the recording of proceedings and debates.
