First published between 1898 and 1900 as a series of articles in
the "New Ireland Review", "The Philosophy of Irish Ireland" was the
most forceful manifesto produced by that section of the Gaelic
Revival movement which saw Irish identity as inextricably Catholic
and Gaelic. The book addresses the growing Catholic professional
class educated in secondary schools run by religious orders, and
attempts to instil a collective consciousness in this nascent
elite. It shows that the Gaelic Revival would not inevitably lead
to separatism; it could also be deployed in the service of an
aggressively reinvented less deferential 'Catholic Whig' politics.
It includes a new introduction by Patrick Maume.
