This book is the first full-length study of the development of
Irish political print culture from the Glorious Revolution of
1688-9 to the advent of the Hanoverian succession in 1714. Based on
extensive analysis of publications produced in Ireland during the
period, including newspapers, sermons and pamphlet literature, this
book demonstrates that print played a significant role in
contributing to escalating tensions between tory and whig partisans
in Ireland during this period. Indeed, by the end of Queen Anne's
reign the public were, for the first time in an Irish context,
called upon in printed publications to make judgements about the
behaviour of politicians and political parties and express their
opinion in this regard at the polls. These new developments laid
the groundwork for further expansion of the Irish press over the
decades that followed.
