From the turn of the twentieth century until the end of the Irish
Civil War, Protestant nationalists forged a distinct counterculture
within an increasingly Catholic nationalist movement. Drawing on a
wide range of primary and secondary sources, Conor Morrissey charts
the development of nationalism within Protestantism, and describes
the ultimate failure of this tradition. The book traces the
re-emergence of Protestant nationalist activism in the literary and
language movements of the 1890s, before reconstructing their
distinctive forms of organisation in the following decades.
Morrissey shows how Protestants, mindful of their minority status,
formed interlinked networks of activists, and developed a vibrant
associational culture. He describes how the increasingly Catholic
nature of nationalism - particularly following the Easter Rising -
prompted Protestants to adopt a variety of strategies to ensure
their voices were still heard. Ultimately, this ambitious and
wide-ranging book explores the relationship between religious
denomination and political allegiance, casting fresh light on an
often-misunderstood period.
