The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was an era of continuity as
well as change. Though properly portrayed as the era of 'Protestant
Ascendancy' it embraces two phases - the eighteenth century when
that ascendancy was at its peak; and the nineteenth century when
the Protestant elite sustained a determined rear-guard defence in
the face of the emergence of modern Catholic nationalism. Employing
a chronology that is not bound by traditional datelines, this
volume moves beyond the familiar political narrative to engage with
the economy, society, population, emigration, religion, language,
state formation, culture, art and architecture, and the Irish
abroad. It provides new and original interpretations of a critical
phase in the emergence of a modern Ireland that, while focused
firmly on the island and its traditions, moves beyond the
nationalist narrative of the twentieth century to provide a history
of late early modern Ireland for the twenty-first century.
