This book builds upon research on the role of Catholicism in
creating and strengthening a global Irish identity, complementing
existing scholarship by adding a 'Roman perspective'. It assesses
the direct agency of the Holy See, its role in the Irish collective
imagination, and the extent and limitations of Irish influence over
the Holy See's policies and decisions. Revealing the centrality of
the Holy See in the development of a series of missionary
connections across the Atlantic world and Rome, the chapters in
this collection consider the formation, causes and consequences of
these networks both in Ireland and abroad. The book offers a long
duree perspective, covering both the early modern and modern
periods, to show how Irish Catholicism expanded across continental
Europe and over the Atlantic across three centuries. It also offers
new insights into the history of Irish migration, exploring the
position of the Irish Catholic clergy in Atlantic communities of
Irish migrants.
