The UK’s decision to divorce from the European Union has brought significant uncertainty for the country both in domestic and foreign policy and has spurred a national identity crisis across the United Kingdom. The Brexit negotiations themselves, and the consequences of them, put tremendous pressure on already strained international relationships between the UK and other European countries, most notably their geographic neighbour: the Republic of Ireland. The Anglo-Irish relationship is characterized by centuries of mutual antagonism and the development of Irish national consciousness, which ultimately resulted in the establishment of an autonomous Irish free state in 1922.

    LEAVING CERTIFICATE HISTORY CASE STUDY Meiler Magrath’s Clerical Career EARLY MODERN IRELAND: TOPIC 2 REBELLION AND CONQUEST IN ELIZABETHAN IRELAND, 1558-1603 A resource for teachers of Leaving Certificate History, developed by the National Library of Ireland in association with the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment Written by: Dr Brian Kirby Steering Committee: Dr Ciaran Brady, Mr John Dredge, Dr Noel Kissane, Mr Gerry Lyne Contents Introduction 3 Biographical Notes 6 Glossary 9 List of abbreviations 11 Chronology of Meiler Magrath's life 12 Documents used in case study 14 Documents 16 2 Introduction Meiler Magrath was one of the most prominent and controversial figures of Elizabethan Ireland. He was born into a Gaelic ecclesiastical family in Fermanagh. His kin held the territory of *Termon Magrath which included St. Patrick’s Purgatory on Lough Derg. Meiler became a Franciscan friar and in October 1565 he was appointed bishop of Down and Connor by the Pope. Soon afterwards, however, he was captured by the English, took the oath of supremacy and conformed to Protestantism. Even though the exact circumstances of his conversion remain unknown, it is clear that Queen Elizabeth had enough faith in Magrath to appoint him bishop of Clogher in 1570 and promote him to the archbishopric of Cashel five months later. During his long clerical career he also received appointments to the bishoprics of Waterford and Lismore and Killala and Achonry. However, this brief sketch of Magrath’s life does little justice to a man who became an extremely influential political figure in the latter years of Elizabeth’s reign.
