Yeats and the Anglo-Irish Twilight
Of all the clichés that cluster round the name of W. B. Yeats his identification with the Celtic twilight is perhaps the most familiar and the most persistent. In later years he became impatient with the label and strove to shake it off, but that it stuck to him so closely was largely his own doing: After all, had he not invested largely in a supernatural world over which eventually he seemed to assume almost proprietary rights? And did he not as…

Parnellism And Crime’, 1887–90
The Home Rule crisis of 1885–86 is generally held to mark a water-shed in the history of Anglo-Irish relations. This it undoubtedly does, though not necessarily for the reasons commonly advanced. The crisis was certainly important in the sense that it obliged the Liberal and Conservative parties to define their attitudes towards Irish self-government and thus to demonstrate to the Irish nationalist party in the House of Commons that their main ho…

The Political Ideas of Parnell
‘It is not easy to describe the mental life of a man who is neither expansive nor introspective’. Thus wrote T. P. O'Connor, one of Parnell's earliest biographers. Historians have never ceased to echo his lament, and however much they may have differed in their interpretation of Parnell, they have generally agreed that, while no Irish leader of the nineteenth century has been so intensively studied, none remains so enigmatic and inaccessible

Ireland since the Famine
John Dillon and the Plan of Campaign, 1886–90
There is a sense in which the home rule debates of 1886 were less the climax of than a deviation from the logical and predictable development of Irish politics in the Parnellite period. Had home rule been achieved, no doubt all would have been changed, and an autonomous Irish parliament would have addressed itself enthusiastically to solving the country's social and economic problems. But in the absence of home rule these problems immediately res…

XIV. Vicissitudes of a Middleman in County Leitrim, 1810-27
The letters which follow are concerned with conditions on, and with the management of, an estate in, county Leitrim in the early years of the nineteenth century. They form part of a body of correspondence now belonging to Dr Patrick Logan of Poole Sanatorium, near Middlesborough, and I am grateful to him for permission to quote from and to use the originals of these letters. My attention was first drawn to the documents by Professor T. W. Moody o…
The machinery of the Irish parliamentary party in the general election of 1895
Each of the general elections that took place between 1885 and 1910 was significant in the history of the party, but that of 1895 had an interest peculiar to itself, setting it apart from the others in the series. It was not an election which brought about any major change in the relative strength of the various parties; it was not even notable for the number of seats to be contested. Nor was it fought upon any major issue of policy, since it was…
IX. The Irish Parliamentary Party and the Liberals in Mid-Ulster, 1894
The letter that follows was written by Edward Blake, a member of the committee of the Irish parliamentary party, to Thomas A. Dickson, formerly a nationalist member of parliament, and since 1892 the principal organiser of the liberal home-rule vote in Ulster The importance of the document lies in the fact that it formed the basis of one of the most serious charges ever levelled against the Irish party in the course of its history. At the general …
The Irish unionist party and the devolution crisis of 1904-5
The passing of the land act of 1903 had been in large part due to the success of the conference held in Ireland during the previous winter between representatives of Irish unionists and nationalists. The chairman of the conference, Lord Dunraven, had been one of the most prominent of the unionist advocates of a conciliatory policy and, after the initial work of the conference had been accomplished, he was reluctant to abandon the instrument for g…
