Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 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 duree 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.

The book brings together an outstanding line-up of scholars, from different disciplines, who offer a range of new perspectives on Redmond, the IPP, and its origins and legacies.

These discussions are complemented by pieces focusing on the party during World War I and the legacy of Redmond and his party. Taken together, they explore the Home Rule movement in a broader context including examination of the continuities and discontinuities between the IPP and the parties that succeeded it, along with new analysis of gender and politics in independent Ireland through an exploration of the suffrage movement and the career of Bridget Redmond.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Eoin MacNeill (1867-1945) was a founding figure in the Gaelic League, the Irish Volunteers, and the government of Ireland. As Professor of Early (including Mediaeval) History at University College Dublin was also one of the foremost Irish historians of his generation. As a professor, a politician, and the leader of a paramilitary organisation, MacNeill fused scholarship and activism into a complex life that both followed and led the course of Irish independence from gestation to maturation. MacNeill is arguably best known as the man who tried to stop the 1916 Rising. However, as this book shows, as a newspaper editor, a language teacher, a historian, a paramilitary leader, a parliamentarian, a convict, and a cabinet minister, he crafted both the ideas and institutions of his own time while revising scholarly understandings of the society and institutions of medieval Ireland through his teaching and writings. MacNeill was also a political theorist and even a propagandist who moulded the Irish-Ireland and Sinn Fein movements through his writings and his oratory. A supporter of the Anglo-Irish Treaty and the Free State's first minister for education, MacNeill lost his son Brian who was killed fighting on the anti-Treaty side of Ireland's Civil War. After independence, MacNeill was centrally involved in the attempt to redraw the Irish border in his role as the Free State's representative on the Irish Boundary Commission. Its collapse took MacNeill's political career down with it and he reverted to his passion for scholarship, drafted his memoirs, founded the Irish Manuscripts Commission, and delivered a landmark lecture tour in the United States. While he received adulation as a scholar in his last years, his contribution to politics and state formation was variously marginalised and maligned, a pattern that persisted in the decades after his death.This collection confronts the complexities and apparent contradictions of MacNeill's life, work, and ideas. It explores the ways in which MacNeill's activities and interests overlapped, his contribution to the Irish language and to Irish history, his evolving political outlook, and the contribution he made to the shaping of modern Ireland. Eoin MacNeill (1867-1945) was a founding figure in the Gaelic League, the Irish Volunteers, and the government of Ireland. As Professor of Early (including Mediaeval) History at University College Dublin was also one of the foremost Irish historians of his generation.
