  • From Ulster to Northern Ireland, 1600–1925 Unit 2: 1700–1914
    KEY STAGE 3: FROM ULSTER TO NORTHERN IRELAND, 1600–1925 UNIT 2: 1700–1914 UNIT 2: UNIT DESCRIPTION The activities in this unit aim to help pupils learn about and evaluate 1700–1914 the relative importance of each of these three historical periods in the process leading to partition and the creation of Northern Ireland: • 1700–1800: Penal Laws, 1798 Rising, Act of Union 1800 • 1800–1900: Nationalism and Unionism • 1900–1914: The Home Rule Crisis Unit 2 begins in the period after King William III’s victories of 1689–1691. Pupils will learn how the most powerful elements of the Protestant minority in Ireland set out to secure their position against the Catholic majority. They did this by introducing a series of Penal Laws against Catholics in the Irish Parliament. In 1798, a group of Presbyterians and Catholics joined together in an attempt to establish a secular Irish Republic which supported the ideals of the French revolution in Ireland: namely, a non-sectarian and democratic nation. The rebellion was rapidly suppressed and led to the Act of Union in 1800, which brought Ireland more closely under British control. Whether to preserve, modify or replace this Act defined the terms of political developments in Ireland, including Ulster, during the 19th century. Finally, pupils will discuss and evaluate how the emergence of Home Rule for Ireland as a policy from 1886 stimulated the growth of unionist opposition, reaching a climax in the period 1910–1914. The idea of Ulster being excluded from Home Rule became an aspiration for Ulster unionists and a strong possibility.

  • The Banshee's Kiss: Conciliation, Class and Conflict in Cork and The
    The Banshee’s Kiss: Conciliation, Class and Conflict in Cork and the All for Ireland League. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Patrick Joseph Murphy. August 2019 1 The Banshee’s Kiss: Conciliation, Class and Conflict in Cork and the All for Ireland League. ABSTRACT Historians have frequently portrayed constitutional nationalism as being homogeneous - ‘the Home Rule movement’- after the reunification of the Irish parliamentary party in 1900. Yet there were elements of nationalist heterodoxy all over the country, but it was only in Cork where dissent took an organised form in the only formal breakaway from the Irish party when the All for Ireland League (A.F.I.L.) was launched in 1910. The AFIL took eight of the nine parliamentary seats in Cork and gained control of local government in the city and county the following year. Existing historical accounts do not adequately explain why support for the Home Rule movement collapsed in Cork, but also why the AFIL flourished there but failed, despite the aspiration of its name, to expand beyond its regional base. The AFIL is chiefly remembered for its visionary policy of conciliation with unionists following the Damascene conversion of its leader William O’Brien, transformed from the enemy of the landed classes to an apostle of a new kind of bi- confessional politics. This would, he claimed, end the ‘Banshee’s Kiss’, a cycle of conflict in which each new generation attempts to achieve Irish freedom. However, conciliation was a policy which was unpopular with both nationalists and unionists and O’Brien therefore needed to develop an electoral base by other means with more popular policies.

I have always been fascinated with history and have devoted a good deal of interest to the American Revolution and the heroes that came out of it. Through the course of my studies of Irish history, I began to develop an equal fascination for the series of revolutions that took place here, which are seemingly all strung together into a solid tradition of violent rebellion in Ireland. As discussed in more detail below, this interest evolved into a focus on Glasnevin Cemetery, where many of these revolutionary heroes are buried, and the political implications and consequences of events that occurred there.

  • John Edward Redmond — the National Leader
    01 JOHN EDWARD REDMOND — THE NATIONAL LEADER John Edward Redmond (1856–1918), Wexford man and leader of The Irish Parliamentary Party from 1900–1918, was one of the most influential Irish politicians in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He was a leading exponent of Irish parliamentary nationalism and was expected to become the first prime minister of an Irish Parliament. Redmond was a member of a Catholic landed family with a background in business and politics. John served as M.P. for New Ross (1881–1885), North Wexford (1885–1891), and Waterford (1891–1918). His aim and that of his party was to secure Home Rule or a domestic parliament for Ireland. Redmond skilfully secured the pas- sage of a third Home Rule Bill through Westminster in September 1914. 01. John Redmond as a young man The outbreak of the First World War in August 1914, combined with polit- ical division in Ireland, delayed the introduction of Home Rule. In the following years, support for Redmond declined rapidly under pressure of events at home and abroad. He died on 6 March, 1918 and is buried in the family mausoleum in St John’s graveyard, Wexford. This exhibition reflects on his life and achievements. 02. John Redmond 04.

  • 'Would You Agree That Charles Stewart Parnell's Achievements And
    Parnell | Sample answer ‘Would you agree that Charles Stewart Parnell’s achievements and failures were both significant? Explain your answer.’ 2019 Charles Stewart Parnell was born on 27 June 1846 in County Wicklow into a family of Anglo-Irish Protestant landowners. He had an anti-English attitude from early on. He studied at Cambridge University and was elected to parliament in 1875 as a member of the Home Rule League. His abilities soon became evident. In 1878, Parnell became an active opponent of the Irish land laws, believing their reform should be the first step on the road to Home Rule. He knew that obstructionism was popular in Ireland especially among the Fenians and he realised how important it was to be popular with the Irish in order to achieve his goals, thus he won their respect through defending the Manchester Martyrs. Parnell was gaining popularity but he realised he needed more support to win over the Irish completely, In April 1879 he held a protest meeting in Mayo which 10,000 people attended, he also protested in Westport in June in which he said to "demand a fair rent" and "keep a firm grip on your homestead" In 1879, Parnell was elected president of the newly founded National Land League by Michael Davitt, however it was really under Fenian control. The following year he visited the United States to gain both funds and support for land reform. In the 1880 election, he supported the Liberal leader William Gladstone, but when Gladstone's Land Act of 1881 fell short of expectations, he joined the opposition.
