In this collection of essays, a range of established and
early-career scholars explore a variety of different perspectives
on Oliver Cromwell’s involvement with Ireland, in particular his
military campaign of 1649-1650. In England and Wales Cromwell is
regarded as a figure of national importance; in Ireland his
reputation remains highly controversial. The essays gathered
together here provide a fresh take on his Irish campaign,
reassessing the backdrop and context of the prevailing siege
warfare strategy and offering new insights into other major players
such as Henry Ireton and the Marquis of Ormond. Other topics
include, but are not limited to, the Cromwellian land settlement,
deportation of prisoners and popular memory of Cromwell in Ireland.
Overall, a picture emerges of a more moderate Cromwell than the
version that has been passed down in Irish history, tradition and
folklore. CONTRIBUTORS: Martyn Bennett, Heidi J. Coburn, Sarah
Covington, John Cunningham, Eamon Darcy, David Farr, Padraig
Lenihan, Alan Marshall, Nick Poyntz, Tom Reilly, James Scott
