Historiography has highlighted Ireland's sixteenth-century
rebellions and ignored its revolution. The transformation of the
island's political personality in the course of the middle Tudor
period must be the last remarked-upon change in its whole history.
Yet it might be claimed to be the most remarkable. It provided
Ireland with its first sovereign constitution, gave it for the
first time an ideology of nationalism, and proposed a practical
political objective which has inspired and eluded a host of
political movements ever since: the unification of the island's
pluralistic community into a coherent political entity. The reason
for the neglect lies partly in another remarkable feature of the
revolution itself, the circumstances of its accomplishment. it was
engineered by Anglo-Irish politicians, in collaboration with an
English head of government in Ireland, and by constitutional means,
in particular by parliamentary statute.
