The sophisticated social structure developed to cater for workers needs and welfare is analysed.

Book Synopsis Dugort, Achill Island, 1831-1861 by : Mealla C. Ní Ghiobúin

Book excerpt: This work traces the evolution of the settlement at Dugort from barren land to thriving village in a period of ten to twelve years. By the mid-1840s it was firmly established with its schools, reclaimed farmland and luxuriant crops. Secondary settlements were also established at Mweelin and on the island of Inishbiggle. However, very strong opposition to these developments came from the Roman Catholic archbishop of Tuam, and the priests he sent to the island. The great famine and its impact on the Mission, the departure of its founder Edward Nangle together with the falling off of voluntary contributions and emigration to the colonies and America, all contributed to the final collapse of this Protestant missionary experiment.

Book Synopsis Reminiscences of Daniel O'Connell by : William Cooke Taylor
Download or read book Reminiscences of Daniel O'Connell written by William Cooke Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This 'instant life' of Daniel O'Connell, written within weeks of his death, synthesises personal observation and contemporary literature to describe the Liberator's career from a liberal Irish Protestant perspective. Taylor shows personal sympathy for O'Connell as leader of a downtrodden people, but sees his talents as distorted by oppression and by a conservative upbringing and concludes that his abusive and truculent oratory did as much to retard Catholic Emancipation as his tactical leadership did to advance it. Taylor's critique, and its limitations, provide valuable insights on the ambivalent and mistrustful alliance between O'Connell and the Whig Party." "This edition also includes Taylor's Atheaeum article on 'Repeal Songs of Munster', a wry look at O'Connellite street ballads and Young Ireland patriotic verse from a Whig-Unionist perspective, and a controversial review of Carleton's Famine novel, The Black Prophet, in which Taylor defends the Whig free-market approach to Famine relief."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis Prior Roger Outlaw of Kilmainham by : Eithne Massey
Download or read book Prior Roger Outlaw of Kilmainham written by Eithne Massey and published by Maynooth Studies in Irish Loca. This book was released on 2000 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As many corrodians were government officials, Outlaw created a network of support within the administration which left his position virtually impregnable, even against such enemies as the powerful bishop of Ossory. Outlaw's role in the Kyteler witchcraft case and his achievements as prior and bureaucrat are looked at in the context of other Hospitaller priors and the pattern of post-holding in the fourteenth century. Against a background of war, famine, feuding and treachery a picture emerges of the way in which a socio-economic construct such as the corrody could be used to support an exceptionally successful career and create a unique community."--Jacket.
