A broad-ranging political and social history of the relationship of
the British monarchy with Ireland from 1800 to the present. James
Loughlin demonstrates how this relationship was shaped by the
personalities of individual monarchs and by government policies in
Ireland, especially during the nineteenth century when the state
sought to quell Irish demands for independence. The study takes
account not only of nationalist Ireland, but also of Ulster
loyalism; the function of royal ritual and spectacle in engaging
Irish popular opinion; and assesses royal allegiance within both
the context of Government policies in Ireland and the Irish
Viceroyalty, the British monarchy's surrogate presence. The
analysis moves through to the present day, examining the monarchy's
role in facilitating Anglo-Irish conciliation following the end of
violent conflict in Northern Ireland. This comprehensive account
makes a significant contribution to the history of Anglo-Irish
relations, the monarchy, nationalism, unionism and the politics of
identity.
