"In 1920, the three Ulster counties of Cavan, Donegal and Monaghan were excluded from Northern Ireland. This book examines the enduring loyalism within protestant communities in the "lost counties". It traces the role of intergenerational memories of violent displacement in militant loyalist politics and paramilitarism during the recent Troubles"--

Excellent. Thought-provoking. A must-read' - Belfast Telegraph 'Fascinating' - Irish Times 'Mark Carruthers has done something remarkably clever and refreshing . . . A very important book' - Belfast News Letter 'The best political book of the year' - Alex Kane Ulster is an ambiguous and complex place. With six of its nine counties in Northern Ireland and three in the Republic of Ireland, it is perhaps most readily associated with the Troubles of the past four decades. It is also, however, a place with a rich literary, musical and sporting heritage. Its people represent a surprising mix of cultural identities, religious ideologies and political allegiances. There is no one settled Ulster identity but as this collection of conversations bears out, there are many areas where experiences and beliefs overlap - even though people come from very different backgrounds and traditions. In Alternative Ulsters, the broadcaster Mark Carruthers interviews a wide range of high-profile writers, actors, journalists and politicians, each of them with an enduring Ulster connection. He uses his finely tuned skills as an interviewer to draw each contributor into a personal reflection on identity. The stories and experiences that helped shape and influence each of the thirty-six interviewees are presented here in a series of colourful, lively, and at times deeply moving exchanges. Together, these conversations with those who know the place best explore Ulster in the twenty-first century, revealing a freshness of thought and a richness of culture that rarely make the headlines.
An improved topographical and historical Hibernian gazetteer; to which is added, an introduction to the ancient and modern history of Ireland by G. Hansbrow Pdf
The twelve chapters in Phases of Irish History were delivered as lectures before public audiences in Dublin. These chapters make no pretense of forming an entire course of Irish history for any period. Their objective was to update and augment. These chapters presume the reader's acquaintance with some general presentation of Irish history. The author of this work Eoin MacNeill (1867 –1945), was an Irish scholar, Irish language enthusiast, Gaelic revivalist, nationalist, and politician. A key figure of the Gaelic revival, MacNeill was a co-founder of the Gaelic League to preserve the Irish language and culture. He has been described as "the father of the modern study of early Irish medieval history". Content includes: The Ancient Irish a Celtic People The Celtic Colonisation of Ireland and Britain The Pre-Celtic Inhabitants of Ireland The Five Fifths of Ireland Greek and Latin Writers on Pre-Christian Ireland Introduction of Christianity and Letters The Irish Kingdom in Scotland Ireland's Golden Age The Struggle with the Norsemen Medieval Irish Institutions The Norman Conquest The Irish Rally
