This collection explores the complex political thinking of a
fundamental period of Irish history. It moves from the political,
religious and military turmoil of the seventeenth century, through
the years of the protestant ascendancy, to the revolutionary events
at the end of the eighteenth century. The book addresses the basic
conflicts of the age. In the case of religious politics it examines
the hopes, anxieties, and interactions of Anglicans, Catholics and
Presbyterians. It investigates the great political issues of the
day - the constitutional thinkers and politicians involved in these
struggles. Light is thrown on the great and the good - Swift and
Molyneux, Grattan and Lucas - as well as on a huge cast of
forgotten or never known figures, be they royal officials, lawyers,
clergymen, landowners, or popular writers. A whole world of vibrant
political debate is exposed.
