Ireland in the Last Fifty Years (Classic Reprint) by Ernest Barker Pdf

Excerpt from Ireland in the Last Fifty Years Perhaps one may say that the Irish Question, as it has shown itself through the centuries, goes even deeper than politics and economics. It is the result of a clash of two ways of life. England early evolved the conception of the State. We may even say that England was the first heir Of Rome, among modern nations, in the transmission of that conception. But it is a conception which under, most of its forms - and there have been several - has failed to. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Fifty Years of Irish Journalism, 1911 (Classic Reprint) by Andrew Dunlop Pdf

Excerpt from Fifty Years of Irish Journalism, 1911 A portion of the following pages was written during the nine months - excepting the brief vacation intervals - which I spent at the Parnell Commission in London. The Court sat four days each week, some times only three, and this gave me a good deal of spare time which I utilised in writing portions of these reminiscences. People in every part of Ireland have repeatedly said to me Why don't you write your reminiscences My answer, speaking generally, for the last twenty years, has been that I had not time. Recently, however, I have had occasional short periods of leisure in which I have been enabled to complete my self-imposed task. I am well aware that the narrative is very much of a personal nature, but possibly it may prove of some interest as a picture of journalistic life in Ireland during the troublous times to which it relates.xii fifty years OF irish journalism. This work makes no pretension to being a history of the period which it covers. A very fair idea of that history might, I think, be gathered from the newspapers of the time, and possibly, for the period from 1867 to 1889 during which I was correspondent, and, frequently, the special correspondent of The Daily News, that journal may be found to contain as good a summary as exists. I know that I was the most energetic of all the Irish correspondents of the London papers during those years. I have not attempted to adhere to chronological order, which I consider would not have been suitable for the general plan of the work.

The O'Donoghue by Charles Lever Pdf

Excerpt from The O'donoghue: A Tale of Ireland Fifty Years Ago Here was much for speculation and something for story. For an opening scene what could I desire finer than the gloomy grandeur and the rugged desolation of Glenflesk, and if some patches of bright verdure here and there gleamed amidst the barrenness - if a stray sunlight lit up the granite cliffs and made the heather glow, might there not be certain reliefs of human tenderness and loveto show that no scene in which man has a part is utterly destitute of those affections whose home is the heart. I had now got my theme and my locality. For my name I took the o'donoghue: it had became associated in my mind with Glenflesk, and would not be separated from it.

Fifty Years of Concessions to Ireland, 1831-1881, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint) by R. Barry O'Brien Pdf

Excerpt from Fifty Years of Concessions to Ireland, 1831-1881, Vol. 1 of 2 From the middle Of the sixteenth to the beginning of the nineteenth century, the end aimed at by the policy of the English Government in Ireland was the conversion of the Irish people to the reformed faith, and their incorporation, in language and feeling, with the English name and nation. That the Irish should be made Protestant in creed, andenglish in sentiment, was, not unnaturally, deemed, by those who had com pleted the conquest Of the island in the Sixteenth cen tury, the most essential requisite for consolidating their own power, and uniting the people of the two countries. This being the end in View, the means employed by English sovereigns and statesmen to effect it were unquestionably neither very just nor very wise.

Fifty Years of Railway Life in England, Scotland and Ireland (Classic Reprint) by Joseph Tatlow Pdf

Excerpt from Fifty Years of Railway Life in England, Scotland and Ireland That my undertaking will not be an easy one I know. My memory is well stored, but unfortunately I have never kept a diary or commonplace book of any kind. On the contrary a love of order and neatness, carried to absurd excess, has always led me to destroy accumulated letters or documents, and much that would be useful now has in the past, from time to time, been destroyed and cast as rubbish to the void. Most autobiographies, I suppose, are undertaken to please the writers. That this is the case with me I frankly confess; but I hope that what I find much pleasure in writing my readers may, at least, find some satisfaction in reading. Vanity, perhaps, plays some part in this hope, for, He that is pleased with himself easily imagines that he shall please others.

Five Years in Ireland 1895-1900 (Classic Reprint) by Michael J. F. McCarthy Pdf

Excerpt from Five Years in Ireland 1895-1900 The visit Of Her Majesty the Queen, in April this year, and events connected therewith, rivetted men's minds upon Ireland to an extent rarely, if ever, before equalled. Not only the thoughtful and the sympathetic, but even the hitherto adverse Englishman and American have felt their interest in this historic island quickened. If, therefore, an Irishman seizes the occasion to give the public some account Of social and political life and progress in his country, it is to be hoped, at least, that the time Will not be considered inopportune. During no previous similar period, perhaps, has so much beneficial legislation been passed for Ireland, without pre cedent agitation, as during the five years under review. This book is not intended to be a eulogy of the Irish Government on that account. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Reformed Church of Ireland by John Thomas Ball Pdf

Excerpt from The Reformed Church of Ireland: 1537-1889 Of the Churches in which during the sixteenth century, either by legislative interference or their own voluntary action, the principles of the Reformation were introduced, none can claim attention more justly than the Church then established in Ireland. Its history has been traced to the time of the Union with accuracy and minuteness; but of subsequent events, although some (for instance, Disestablishment and the construction of a new Constitution) are of the highest importance, a narrative is yet wanting. The following pages are an attempt to supply this deficiency; they also aim at recalling what has been already discussed by others, but in a compressed form, and without details which no longer instruct or interest.
