The Land and the people of Nineteenth-Century Cork: The Rural Economy and the Land Question
First published in 1975. Using estate records, local newspapers and parliamentary papers, this book focuses upon two central and interrelated subjects – the rural economy and the land question – from the perspective of Cork, Ireland’s southernmost country. The author examines the chief responses of Cork landlords, tenant farmers and labourers to the enormous difficulties besetting them after 1815. He shows how the great famine of the late 1840s w…

Big House Burnings in County Cork during the Irish Revolution, 1920–21
Big House Burnings in County Cork during the Irish Revolution, 1920–21 James S. Donnelly Jr. (bio) Introduction The burning of Big Houses belonging to landed Protestants and the occasional Catholic was one of the most dramatic features of the Irish Revolution of 1919–23. Of course, the Protestant landed elite was only a shadow of its former self in the southern parts of Ireland by the time that revolution erupted in 1919. But even where land-owne…
"Opposing the "Modern World: The Cult of the Virgin Mary in Ireland, 1965-85
Opposing the Modern World:The Cult of the Virgin Mary in Ireland, 1965-85 James S. Donnelly Jr. (bio) The material, cultural, and religious change that began to sweep through Ireland in the 1960s dethroned Marianism from its central place in Irish Catholic popular devotion. The remarkably strong economic expansion that commenced in the late 1950s inevitably quickened the acquisitive instincts of a society that had long known widespread poverty an…
The Great Irish Potato Famine
New edition published November 2010. In the century before the great famine of the late 1840s, the Irish people, and the poor especially, became increasingly dependent on the potato for their food. So when potato blight struck, causing the tubers to rot in the ground, they suffered a grievous loss. Thus began a catastrophe in which approximately one million people lost their lives and many more left Ireland for North America, changing the country…
An Open Port: The Berwick Export Trade, 1311–1373
As events have moved towards the creation of a subordinate parliamentary assembly in Edinburgh, contributors to the Scottish Historical Review have been understandably preoccupied with political history, to the virtual exclusion of economic history. Things were different when the journal first appeared in 1903. With the Unionist tide at its flood, a secure political climate was reflected in an altogether more balanced coverage of history and, ind…

strength of this volume cannot be conveyed by an itemisation of its contents; for what it provides is an incisive commentary on the newly-recognised landmarks of Irish agrarian history in the modern period. . . . The importance, even indispensability, of this achievement is compounded by exemplary editing. Roy Foster, London Times Literary Supplement As a whole, the volume demonstrates the wealth, complexity, and sophistication of Irish rural stu…

The Whiteboy movement, 1761-5
The great tradition of the Buachailli Bána in the south of Ireland had its small beginnings on the Tipperary side of the Knockmealdown mountains during the closing months of 1761. ‘ Their first rise was in October last,’ a Youghal gentleman told his son in London in April 1762, ‘ and they have ever since been increasing;... they always assembled in the night with their shirts over their clothes, which caused them to be called Whiteboys . ’ The ex…
