The 1790s is one of the most critical decades in the history of
modern Ireland. The decade witnessed the birth of the modern
ideology of separatist Irish republicanism, the creation of the
Orange Order, and the greatest bloodletting in modern Irish history
in the form of the 1798 rebellion. In the aftermath of the
rebellion came the Act of Union that brought Ireland into the
United Kingdom for the next 121 years, and the smaller rebellion of
Robert Emmet, possibly one of the most famous - and, to later
generations, inspirational - of Irish republicans. Now, in the
second instalment of the collaboration between Pen and Sword and
History Ireland magazine, some of the world's leading experts on
the 1790s explore the origins, nature and aftermath of the decade
from a range of perspectives: from the individuals involved and
their international links, to the events of the rebellion and the
responses of the government, to the manoeuvres that led to the Act
of Union, this volume explore the motives, actions and legacies of
the republicans, loyalists, and propagandists who shaped one of the
most important decades in Ireland's modern history.
