Introduction The title of this book is intended to inform the reader that though the history of a particular Foundation fills most of its pages, the general history of the country, and its social and intellectual conditions, have been always before the author's mind. The great struggle for the education and creed of the people between the reformed Church of England and the Jesuits has been viewed from a special point of view. But the author claims to have made a contribution to the Eliza- bethan and Jacobean history of Ireland, as well as to the knowledge of the early fortunes of the great Irish University and College. He also claims, while in no way concealing his Protestant convictions, to have represented the merits and the feults of all the conflicting parties in this struggle without fear or favour. The history of Trinity College, Dublin, which up to the present includes that of the University of Dublin, has been many times written, and these essays have been at least in five cases published. It might therefore fairly be expected that each succeeding work would utilise its predecessors, and thus gradually attain to an adequate account of the origin and development of " the only English foundation that ever succeeded in Ireland." But this is not the case. The earliest systematic (though unfinished) history is that of X INTRODUCTION Provost Hely Hutchinson, composed about 1790-2. It was never printed, but was utilised by the late Dr. Todd in his historical Introduction to the first College Calendar (1833), and again by Dr. Stubbs in his History, though very inadequately.^ The many papers left by Vice-Provost Barrett, and now in the Library, show that he was accumulating materials, and making special studies, for the same purpose, but he never carried out his intention. His transcripts of many early documents were, however, very serviceable to those of his successors who were unable to read the originals. There is yet another MS. history, hitherto lying in the Bursar's office. This very neat MS., evidently a careful copy from a rougher original, especially from the Barrett papers, is probably the most valuable of all the attempted histories. It is anonymous, the only clues to its date and author being that it copies and cites Dr. Barrett, and was in the possession of Provost MacDonnell. As the writer had complete access to all the documents in the Muniment Room, or else to Barrett's copies of them, he must have been one of the authorities of the College ; the most likely author is, I think, Charles Elrington (the editor of the life and works of Ussher), who was Professor of Divinity 1829. Many original documents, some of which are now mis- laid or lost, are cited in this history, and it is far less tinged with subjectivity than the work of Hely Hutchinson, whose lifelong quarrels with his Fellows colour the accounts he gives of similar dissensions in earlier times. Unfortunately this anonymous author has not carried his work beyond the life of Winter, the Cromwellian Provost ; but he has added, in some- what random order, transcripts (Barrett's) of many of the old documents in the Muniment Room. The first published history is Taylor's (1845), a rhetorical » The original MS. has only recently been recovered by the College, and is now in the Muniment Room—a typewritten copy l)eing deposited in the Library. INTRODUCTION xi book, provincial in tone and full of bigotry, and unhandy to consult, as it has no index. Taylor must have known and used Todd's first Calendar, though he does not cite it. The mediaeval attempts at founding an Irish University are evidently described from this source ; and the false estimate of Archbishop Loftus's importance as a founder of Trinity College appears here, as it does in the subsequent History of Stubbs. Taylor's book is nevertheless useful, in that he searched the annals of the Irish House of Commons, and transcribes for us many important documents, down to the Report of the Wide Street Commission of 1800 on College Street, from these records. But of the documents in the Muniment Room, or the earlier MS. histories, he seems to have known nothing. His judgments are often partial and wrong. His estimates, e.g.^ of Provost Chappell, are entirely from the charges brought against him by his enemies in the Parliament of 1640, and ignore Chappell's personal defence, as well as the evidence in Laud's and Strafford's letters. Taylor also brought into fashion the practice of evading the more troublesome task of writing a systematic and orderly history by giving mere biographical sketches of eminent men, and the annals of special schools in the University. These digressions and supplements are often interesting, but often irrelevant to the task of the historian. The late Dr. Stubbs, when Bursar, undertook the work afresh, though untrained for it by any general historical studies. He knew Hely Hutchinson's MS. and had full access to the Muniment Room, as well as of course to the Anon, history in his own office. Here again the documents printed in his Appendix—many of them hitherto inaccessible—are of great value to the student. There was not one of them, indeed, unknown to Hely Hutchinson or Barrett, and they were apparently all given by Stubbs from Barrett's transcripts. But here many official documents relating to the founding of the College are to be found, though many still remain xii INTRODUCTION to be printed. The narrative brings us up to the year 1800. As regards the characters of the early rulers of the College, who lived in perpetual controversies, and who are described to us either by warm friends or bitter enemies among their con- temporaries, Stubbs offers us no independent judgments. He seems hardly to have looked into the Calendars of State Papers, or the documents in the Record Office, still less into the Records of the Corporation of Dublin. It was indeed unfortunate that he did not begin, instead of concluding, his work with the year 1800. For many of us remember how full he was of the traditions and the gossip of the early and middle nineteenth century in Dublin. If he had set down all the facts and stories repeated to him in his youth by garrulous seniors, he would have left us a picture of Trinity College in the days of its greatest wealth (and its greatest sloth) which is now lost for ever. At the moment of the Tercentenary Celebration (1892) two new documents concerning this history appeared, of which the smaller and less pretentious had a real and independent value. This was Urwick's Early History of Trinity College^ Dublin (i 591-1660), a little shilling book in a bright green cover. It was written to support a definite thesis. The author, a repre- sentative Non-Conformist, found that the services of the Puritan party and their importance at the founding of the College and during the Commonwealth had been ignored by Episcopalian historians. Even the characters of men like Travers and Winter had suffered from the unpopularity of their views among the Church party. In this short but most valuable tract Mr. Urwick sought to set things right. He knew where to find the proper sources, and he knew how to use them when found. His book is therefore a notable contribution to the history of the University, the more so as it gives us general views of religious politics in Ireland, and not mere contro- versies about petty internal affairs. The Book of Trinity College, published for a gift to the guests at the feast, was com- INTRODUCTION xiii piled by various hands, and in a great hurry, owing to the jealousies and oppositions then brought to bear upon it. It therefore does not represent a tithe of what could have been done with a little more generosity and sympathy on the part of the Bursar. But even in this hurried volume documents were cited and views set forth which were fresh to the public.

    To Plant and Improve: Justifying the Consolidation of Tudor and Stuart Rule in Ireland, 1509 to 1625 Samantha Watson A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Humanities and Languages Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences September 2014 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Watson First name: Samantha Other name/s: Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: School of Humanities and Languages Faculty: Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Title: To plant and improve: justifying the consolidation of Tudor and Stuart rule in Ireland, 1509 to 1625. Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) This thesis aims to examine the ideologies employed in justifying English conquest and plantation of Ireland between 1509 and 1625. It adopts the methodology of a contextualist intellectual history, which situates the sources within the intellectual and material world, and in relation to the publically approved paradigms, available to the authors. The thesis encompasses a range of source material - correspondence, policy papers and published tracts - from major and minor figures in government and undertakers of colonisation schemes. The source material will be examined with respect to the major upheavals in intellectual culture in late medieval and early modern England and, in particular, the impact of major pan- European movements, the Protestant Reformation and the Renaissance. Focussing on the ethics associated with the spread of Renaissance humanism and Calvinist Protestantism, it explores socio-political ideas in England and examines the ways that these ideas were expressed in relation to Ireland.

  • History and the Shaping of Irish Protestantism
    Journal of the Irish Christian Study Centre Vol. 2 1984 History and the Shaping of Irish Protestantism (Based on the Annual Theological Lectures delivered at the Queen's University of Belfast, 21st and 22nd February, 1983) by DESMOND BOWEN 'History has mauled Ireland, but if we can prove ourselves able to learn from it, we may once again find ourselves in a position to teach'. James Downey, Them and Us: Britain, Ireland and the Northern Question, 1969-1982, (Dublin, 1983) The History In a world filled with insurgent ethnic groups the importance of the role of 'peoples' in world development is being increasingly recognized in our day, and Arnold Toynbee has gone so far as to argue "it is the only intelligible unit of historical study" .1 The Protestants of Ireland have until now formed a people unit with a strong sense of identity based on a configuration of political and religious symbols by which they explain their history. The social orders in both north and south which have long nurtured them are changing rapidly, however, and as a people they are now suffering from what in modern jargon is called 'an identity crisis'. They are confused with their self-image, the understanding of themselves historically, and their relationship with other peoples, which has traditionally given them their identity. This paper addresses itself to this crisis, suggesting that a new consideration of Irish Protestant historical development might be of value to them in both self-understanding, and in terms of what they might contribute to the world as a consequence of their unique historical experience.

  • Chapter V Educational Provision in Wales Part
    CHAPTER V EDUCATIONAL PROVISION IN WALES PART (i) : SCHOOLS In medieval Wales it was the Church which assumed the greatest responsibility for schooling, bardic schools and possibly the households of the Welsh lords being also centres of learning. The English universities, and to a lesser extent, the continental universities and the inns of court, provided further or higher 1 education for the ablest talents of Wales. In England, by the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, lay involvement in educati4n increased, as the needs of the Crown, the aristocracy and the towns expanded, and this was also faintly apparent in as scattered and 2 rural a society as Wales. The revival of classical learning emphasised anew the educational qualities required of administrators and all useful members of the state and which were also to be expected of gentlemen. At a time of social change, in Wales as in England, education became a 3 means of asserting and of reinforcing social distinctions. Neither the schools nor the universities were particularly suited 4 to the task of preparing young gentlemen. The newer grammar schools tried tEadapt, and there were a few signs that the universities and the inns of court, though still largely institutions of professional instruction, made some concessions towards providing a more general and 5 popular education. The essential conservatism of these places meant 6 that they were not in the van of intellectual progress. Rather, they were places for disseminating received and accepted truths intermixed with north European humanism and religious ideology, giving force to 333. 7 the ideal of wise and moral service and leadership.

    Chapter IV – The English and Irish Reformation. England. In 1521 the English monarch forwarded to Rome a copy of the treatise he had just completed in refutation of “Martin Luther the heresiarch”:* On this occasion, Clerk, the envoy** who presented the sumptuous manuscript to Leo X, expatiated on the perfect orthodoxy of his countrymen and their entire devotion to the Roman pontiff; – little dreaming that in the course of the next thirty years an era fatal to the old opinions would have dawned on every shire of England as on other parts of Western Christendom, and least of all anticipating that one of the prime movers in the changes then accomplished would be Henry VIII himself, who in return for his chivalrous vindication of the schoolmen had been dubbed “Defender of the Faith.”*** *[Above: cf. Audin’s narrative in his Hist. de Henri VIII. I. 259 sq. Paris, 1847. The zeal of the monarch was inflamed and his arguments supported by the leading prelates of the day. Thus Fisher bp. of Rochester preached at St Paul’s (May 12, 1521) “again ye pernicious doctryn of Martin Luther”; his sermon professing to have been “made by assyngnement of ye moost reuerend fader in God ye lord Thomas cardinal of York” [i.e. Wolsey]. Two years later appeared the same prelate’s more elaborate defense of Henry VIII entitled Adsertionis Lutheranae Confutatio, and also Powel’s Propugnaculum, the title of which characterizes Luther as an infamous friar and a notorious “Wicklifist”. On subsequent passages between the two chief antagonists, Henry VIII and Luther, see Waddington, II.
