Peace and Protest in Ireland: Women’s Activism in Ireland, 1918-1937
Political violence was a fact of Irish life in the early twentieth century, exacerbated by the sacrificial and martial cultures that grew out of nationalist and unionist politics. The Irish women’s movement developed in this context, adjusting to the demands made on activists by these particular circumstances, and playing a vital role in all the major political movements of the era. Buoyed by the achievement of partial women’s enfranchisement in …
Suffrage and citizenship in Ireland, 1912-18
In this published lecture, Professor Senia Pašeta argues that our understanding of modern Irish and British politics would be enormously enriched if we recognized both that the Irish and British suffrage movements were deeply connected; and that the Irish Question fundamentally shaped the women’s suffrage movement across the UK from the late nineteenth century and into the twentieth. The movement did not exist in a vacuum, but rather interacted w…
New Issues and Old: Women and politics in Ireland, 1914-1918
This article explores the experiences of politically active Irish women during the First World War. Focusing on political campaigns including women's suffrage, nationalist activism and pacifism, it argues that Irish women were particularly well placed to respond to the demands of total war by virtue of their existing political commitments and the highly incendiary condition of Irish political life in 1914. Although the outbreak of war complicated…
Feminist Political Thought and Activism in Revolutionary Ireland, C . 1880–1918
Feminist thought and activism was a feature of Irish political life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Because the women's suffrage campaign coincided with and was at times influenced by wider debates on the national question, it has often been understood almost entirely in relation to Irish nationalism and unionism, and usually in the specific context of acute political crisis such as the third Home Rule. The Irish suffrage mo…
Uncertain Futures: Essays about the Irish Past for Roy Foster
"This volume has been produced to mark the retirement of Roy Foster from the Carroll Professorship of Irish history at the University of Oxford, and to mark his extraordinary career as a historian, literary critic, and public intellectual. It consists of twenty three essays contributed by many of the leading historians of modern Ireland, including scholars whose work has influenced Roy Foster's own research, leading Irish historians who have infl…
Poverty and the Poor Law in Ireland, 1850–1914, by Virginia Crossman
Virginia Crossman’s book is one of the major products of an ambitious research project which set out to collect and analyse data relating to the history of statutory poor relief in Ireland from the end of the Great Famine in 1850 to the establishment of the Irish Free State in 1922. Funded by a large research grant from the Economic and Social Research Council, this project has proved to be enormously constructive and stands as a testament to the…

Waging War on the Streets: The Irish Women Patrol, 1914–22
Female activists across the United Kingdom had insisted from the late nineteenth century that the employment of women police who would deal with problems specific to women and children could help to address pressing social questions, or at least to offer women some protection within the entirely male criminal justice system. Their campaign for women police was connected to similar demands for the employment of female prison visitors and inspector…
Irish Nationalist Women, 1900–1918
This is a major new history of the experiences and activities of Irish nationalist women in the early twentieth century, from learning and buying Irish to participating in armed revolt. Using memoirs, reminiscences, letters and diaries, Senia Pašeta explores the question of what it meant to be a female nationalist in this volatile period, revealing how Irish women formed nationalist, cultural and feminist groups of their own as well as how they i…
The Lost World of Stephen Gwynn: Irish Constitutional Nationalism and Cultural Politics, 1864–1950, by Colin Reid
This is one of those books that makes one wonder how on earth its subject escaped scholarly attention before its publication. Stephen Gwynn was one of the most intriguing men of his era. He was one of those people who seemed to know everybody who was worth knowing and to have found himself at the heart of almost all the crucial political and intellectual debates in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Ireland. As a prolific essayist, biog…

Rendering to God and Caesar: The Irish Churches and the Two States in Ireland, 1949-73
In 1921 the two new states of Northern Ireland and the Irish Free State were established. While the populations of these states adjusted to the new political reality, several all-Ireland bodies attempted to exist within, around and beyond the new boundary. The Catholic Church and the Church of Ireland were the most important of these bodies, and this new book is a marvellous explanation of how they attempted to do this. Ó Corráin's approach is no…

Nationalist responses to two royal visits to Ireland, 1900 and 1903
In July 1903 Maud Gonne hung a black petticoat from the window of her Dublin home, insulting her unionist neighbours and provoking what became known as ‘the battle of Coulson Avenue’. Aided by nationalist friends, athletes from Cumann na nGaedheal and her sturdy housekeeper, she defended her ‘flag’ against police and irate neighbours. Gonne’s lingerie — allegedly a mark of respect for the recently deceased pope — flew in stark and defiant contras…
