Book excerpt: "Religious beliefs and spiritual traditions have molded Ireland's past and present in spectacular ways. Ranging across a rich tapestry, from early Celtic culture to the Christian missionaries, from the Golden Age of monastic life to the diverse influence of the Vikings and the Normans, the Reformation, the wars of religion, to the people now engaged in the Peace Process, The Voice of the Irish offers a balanced account of the religious, social and political life of the Irish. A sweeping history of faith in Ireland, it brings to life the island's people and events, including the legacy of pagan Celtic spirituality, the real and the legendary St. Patrick, the religious roots of English involvement in Ireland, the Famine and new life in America, the origins of the Troubles in the North, and predicts a future between tradition and modernity." --Book Jacket.

Download or read book John Wheatley Catholic Socialism and Irish Labour in the West of Scotland 1906 1924 written by Gerry C. Gunnin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1987. This examination of the career of John Wheatley indicates the way in which one Irishman – reared among Liberal and Radical coal miners and taught by Roman Catholic priests and nationalist leaders to regard obedience to the Catholic Church and promotion of Home Rule as the vital interests for Irish Catholics – became a Socialist and adapted his Radical political views and devotional Roman Catholic convictions to a Parliamentary and Catholic Socialism. This title will be of interest to scholars and students of British and Labour history.
Download or read book Ireland and the Irish in Interwar England written by Mo Moulton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To what extent did the Irish disappear from English politics, life and consciousness following the Anglo-Irish War? Mo Moulton offers a new perspective on this question through an analysis of the process by which Ireland and the Irish were redefined in English culture as a feature of personal life and civil society rather than a political threat. Considering the Irish as the first postcolonial minority, she argues that the Irish case demonstrates an English solution to the larger problem of the collapse of multi-ethnic empires in the twentieth century. Drawing on an array of new archival evidence, Moulton discusses the many varieties of Irishness present in England during the 1920s and 1930s, including working-class republicans, relocated southern loyalists, and Irish enthusiasts. The Irish connection was sometimes repressed, but it was never truly forgotten; this book recovers it in settings as diverse as literary societies, sabotage campaigns, drinking clubs, and demonstrations.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Religion in Modern Ireland written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-30 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does religion mean to modern Ireland and what is its recent social and political history? The Oxford Handbook of Religion in Modern Ireland provides in-depth analysis of the relationships between religion, society, politics, and everyday life on the island of Ireland from 1800 to the twenty-first century. Taking a chronological and all-island approach, it explores the complex and changing role of religion both before and after partition. The handbook's thirty-two chapters address long-standing historical and political debates about religion, identity, and politics, including religion's contributions to division and violence. They also offer perspectives on how religion interacts with education, the media, law, gender and sexuality, science, literature, and memory. Whilst providing insight into how everyday religious practices have intersected with the institutional structures of Catholicism and Protestantism, the book also examines the island's increasing religious diversity, including the rise of those with 'no religion'. Written by leading scholars in the field and emerging researchers with new perspectives, this is an authoritative and up-to-date volume that offers a wide-ranging and comprehensive survey of the enduring significance of religion on the island.

Download or read book The Shaping of Modern Ireland written by Eugenio Biagini and published by Irish Academic Press. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1960 and edited by Conor Cruise O’Brien, The Shaping of Modern Ireland was a seminal work surveying the lives of prominent early twentieth-century figures who influenced Irish affairs in the years between the death of Charles Stewart Parnell in 1891 and the Easter Rising of 1916. The chapters were written by leading historians and commentators from the Ireland of the 1950s, some of whom personally knew the subjects of their essays. This volume draws its inspiration from that seminal work. Written by some of today’s leading figures from the world of Irish history, politics, journalism and the arts, it revisits a crucial phase in the country’s history, one that culminated in the Easter Rising and the Revolution, when everything ‘changed utterly’. With chapters on men and women of the stature of Carson, Connolly and Markievicz, but also industrialists such as Guinness who contributed to ‘shaping modern Ireland’ in the social and economic sphere, this book offers an important contribution to the renewal of the debate on the country’s history.
