A very good set with a remarkable association. €2,350 Maria Edgeworth (1767-1849), novelist, children’s writer and educationalist, was born at Black Bourton near Reading, and educated in England. She returned to Ireland with her father, Richard Lovell Edgeworth, in 1782, and taught the children of his later marriages, sharing his progressive views on education. Her early works included ‘The Parent’s Assistant’ (1796) and ‘Practical Education’ (1798). During the 1798 rebellion Edgeworthstown was spared by the insurgents because of the family’s standing with its tenants. In 1800, Maria, published ‘Castle Rackrent’, the earliest regional novel in English, which made her internationally famous. Her work earned the admiration of Sir Walter Scott who acknowledged his debt to her in the general preface to the ‘Waverley Novels’. She edited and completed her father’s ‘Memoirs’ in 1820. In later years she was largely occupied with rectifying her brother’s mismanagement of the Edgeworthstown estate, and in relieving victims of the Famine. Aid came from her admirers around the world (from Boston came 150 barrels of flour addressed simply to “Miss Edgeworth, for her poor”). Her last work ‘Orlandino’ (1848) was written for the Poor Relief Fund. The first scholarly survey of the French Revolution in English, written by the prominent Edinburgh legal figure and historian Archibald Alison (1792-1867). Following the conclusion of the Napoleonic wars in 1815, Scottish lawyer Archibald Jr. toured Europe before embarking on his legal career, awakening a life-long interest in politics both at home and abroad. He began writing for a living following his dismissal due to the election of a Whig government in 1830, articulating a strongly conservative, Tory political vision. His ‘History of Europe During the French Revolution,’ begun in 1833, was the first English-language account to be published, winning great attention and many sales 1 Catalogue 142 around the world, despite Disraeli’s caricature of the author as ‘Mr. Wordy.’ His ‘History’ was eventually regarded as the ‘Bible of the Tory Party,’ consistently promoting a paternalist, anti-trade- union, anti-capitalist agenda totally. Provenance: Bequeathed to Rosa Florentina Eroles (1815-1864). Francis Beaufort Edgeworth, son of Richard Lovell Edgeworth and Frances Ann Beaufort “was a restless philosophy student at Cambridge on his way to Germany when he decided to elope with a teenage Catalan refugee Rosa Florentina Eroles he had met on the steps of the British Museum”. They married in 1831 at Old Church Street, St. Pancras, London. One of the outcomes of their marriage was Ysidro Francis Edgeworth (the name order was reversed later), who was destined to become one of the most brilliant and eccentric economists of the 19th Century. Francis Beaufort Edgeworth was 21st child of Richard Lovell Edgeworth. The 5th child of Richard and his fourth wife Frances Anne Beaufort. ALAMEIN FORCES PRESS 3. [ANON] Swaying Pines.

Mervyn Archdall, (1723-1791), historian, antiquarian and genealogist was a native of Dublin. After graduating from Trinity, he took a keen interest in antiquities and literary research. Having made the acquaintance of Walter Harris, Charles Smith, and Thomas Prior he resolved on collecting material for an ecclesiastical history of Ireland. His ‘Monasticon Hibernicum’ first appeared in 1786, the product of forty years zealous research. “It contains many particulars which will gratify the antiquary’s curiosity ... It is more valuable on account of its being compiled from authentic official records” - London Monthly Review, 1786. This publication was intended as an edition of three volumes, but, the Publisher died before the third volume was completed. It was first issued in Dublin in a single quarto volume in 1786. Archdall added much extra material, as he did with his edition of ‘Lodge’s Peerage of Ireland’. Engravings of the Several Religious and Military Orders in gold and colours. 6.

It was eventually resolved with an acknowledgment from Cardinal Dalton in a letter to Dr. Hillery, Minister for Education, in which on behalf of the Hierarchy, he expressed recognition of the normal expectations of lay national teachers in regard to posts as principal teachers. 7.

    THE DOUBLE-VOICED NARRATIVES OF MARIA EDGEWORTH, SOMERVILLE AND ROSS, AND ELIZABETH BOWEN By SARAH MARGARET MALLONEE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2009 1 © 2009 Sarah Margaret Mallonee 2 To my grandparents 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My acknowledgements are many and heartfelt, but they start with three people who make every day better than the one before. I start with my parents, then, who most recently reminded me, with a kindness and graciousness unique to them, that they were in this with me ―for the long haul.‖ That it has been. What they signed on for took some time to see to its completion, but for their unwavering, unimaginably strong support, I am totally humbled and forever grateful. John D. Mallonee, M.D. and Elizabeth Heard Mallonee, M.A. set high standards for their children and this has always helped me keep a strong work ethic, a dedication to my goals, and an enthusiasm for all that I endeavor; I thank them for that. In the same breath that I thank my parents, I thank my constant companion, Elliott N. Gamsey, who brings the ―make it so‖ attitude to our lives and readily shares the tenderness, strength, and joy that emanates from his heart and his hands. What I should be most thankful for, I suppose, are the many songs, videos, comics, articles, and bits of news Elliott has used over the years to keep me sane along the way.

  • The History of Luttrellstown Demesne, Co. Dublin
    NORTHERN IRELAND HERITAGE GARDENS TRUST OCCASIONAL PAPER, No 4 (2015) 'Without Rival in our Metropolitan County' - The History of Luttrellstown Demesne, Co. Dublin Terence Reeves-Smyth Luttrellstown demesne, which occupies around 600 acres within its walls, has long been recognised as the finest eighteenth century landscape in County Dublin and one of the best in Ireland. Except for the unfortunate incorporation of a golf course into the eastern portion of its historic parkland, the designed landscape has otherwise survived largely unchanged for over two centuries. With its subtle inter-relationship of tree belts and woodlands, its open spaces and disbursement of individual tree specimens, together with its expansive lake, diverse buildings and its tree-clad glen, the demesne, known as 'Woodlands' in the 19th century, was long the subject of lavish praise and admiration from tourists and travellers. As a writer in the Irish Penny Journal remarked in October 1840: ‘considered in connection with its beautiful demesne, [Luttrellstown] may justly rank as the finest aristocratic residence in the immediate vicinity of our metropolis.. in its natural beauties, the richness of its plantations and other artificial improvements, is without rival in our metropolitan county, and indeed is characterised by some features of such exquisite beauty as are rarely found in park scenery anywhere, and which are nowhere to be surpassed’.1 Fig 1. 'View on approaching Luttrellstown Park', drawn & aquatinted by Jonathan Fisher; published as plate 6 in Scenery

  • CNI News 14 October
    CNI News 14 October Work together and be innovative, says C of E rural school report Plaque In Memory Of Seamus Heaney Dedicated At the dedication of the plaque in memory of Seamus Heaney in Nun’s Cross Church, Killiskey were Jenny McCrohan, Christopher Heaney, Anna Rose, Marie Heaney, Archdeacon Ricky Rountree, the Revd Ken Rue and Fr Eamonn Crosson Family and friends of Seamus Heaney gathered in Nun’s Cross Church, Killiskey, last night, Sunday 13 October, for the dedication of a plaque in memory of the celebrated poet. The Nobel Laureate was connected to the area through the nearby Glanmore Cottage where he lived with his wife Marie for five years in the 1970s. He maintained a close connection with the area and visited regularly as he sought inspiration for his poetry. He bought the cottage when it went on the Page 1 CNI News 14 October market in 1988 and divided his time between Dublin and Wicklow. Last night’s service was attended by Marie Heaney and the couple’s son Christopher along with his wife Jenny McCrohan and their daughter Anna Rose. Welcoming them, the Vicar the Revd Ken Rue noted that the Heaney family had been very generous to the church. The dedication took place after the Wicklow and Killiskey Harvest Thanksgiving Service. The Vicar was joined by the Archdeacon of Glendalough, the Ven Ricky Rountree, who preached and dedicated the plaque and the new Parish Priest of Ashford, the Very Revd Eamonn Crosson, who read the Gospel. A number of Seamus Heaney’s poems were read during the service.

We continue to feature books and ephemera from the American West but you’ll also find numerous pages of Americana, Travel and Photographic material along with Explora- tion, Mining and Native Americana. We’ve also picked up small collections of Poetry and Art Books which have been fun to catalogue. Perhaps my favorite genre of Catalogue #19 are the 21 Promotional items from western states and communities. These colorful pamphlets, mostly from the early 20th century, would make any Chamber of Commerce proud. It’s always interesting to see what items sell quickly in each catalogue. I of- ten guess wrong so I’ll leave the decisions up to you. Several items of note, however, include: The best association copy known of Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian--inscribed to Edward Abbey, a beautifully bright advertising poster for the ‘Field Self Discharging Rake’, a scarce promotional for the Salt River Valley of Arizona, a full-plate tintype from Volcano, California, and six large format albumen photographs depicting archaeological sites of Arizona and New Mexico by John K. Hillers. I’m also taken with the striking and rare Broadside for the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad, the very clean re- view copy of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring and the atlas from the Pike Expe- dition published in 1810.

  • The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.
