Product Description
Winner of the1999 James S.Donnelly Sr. Prize awarded by American Conference for Irish Studies (ACIS).

Based on extensive research in family and state archives in Ireland, England, and the United States, Professor Keogh studies the influx which followed the Russian pogroms and the establishment of enlarged Jewish communities in Dublin, Belfast, and Cork.The author contrasts the general rise of anti-Semitism and the background to the Limerick pogrom of 1904, with the world of Dublin Jews as personified by James Joyce's "Leopold Bloom", and the contribution of the community to the professional, academic, social, and political life of the country.

The book focuses on the relationship between the Jewish community and the Irish State under William T. Cosgave in the 1920's, and Eamon de Valera between 1932 and 1948.Professor Keogh lays particular emphasis on the role of Chief Rabbi Isaac Herog and his work on building up the community.He also examines the thinking of senior officials towards the admission of Jewish refugees in the late 1930's and charts de Valera's reponse to the Holocaust.

This is the first book to offer a critical reassessment to this difficut period in Irish international relations.It will be of interest to those concerned with Jewish history, the study of intolerance, the international reaction to the Holocaust, and to the history of inter-war refugee policy ...

I am a huge fan of Anne McCaffrey's work. This is an excellent novelette that gives a little insight to the beginning of PERN.

4-0 out of 5 stars An intimate history of Irish Jewry from 1880 to now
Dermot Keogh has presented an excellent picture of Irish Jewry from 1880's to the present time.His extensive researchgives the reader an insight into the socio-economic climate prevailing in rural and urban Ireland. The Irish are seen as a tolerant and accepting people.However, the 1904Limerick pogrom highlights the distrust and ignorance that pervaded thegeneral population of rural Ireland.Sparked by the preaching of Fr JohnCreagh of the Archconfraternity of the Holy Family, a Catholic Order - heincited the local people of Limerick to boycott the Jewish traders of thecity.His main attack was against the "weekly men" - who soldgoods on credit and collected a small amount each week until the amount waspaid off.He maintained these traders were unscrupulous often chargingexcessively for inferior goods. Although the Catholic Church is not seentosupport his vilificationof the Jews, it does little to stop himeither.This lingering anti-Semitism underlies the general feelings of thepopulation throughout the book - even up to the present time.As theSecond World War approaches, De Valera and his Fianna Fail partyis ingovernment with the only Jewish member of parliament Robert Briscoe.Keogh uncovers behind the scenes official policies aimed at stemming thetide of refugees of central and eastern Europe from entering the Free State(Ireland).The argument behind De Valera's government policy was thatthere were too many "of our own people" out of work in thecontext of a mainly agrarian working population.Also, the governmentfeared that allowing in more Jews would further aggravate anti-Semitism inthe country.The bureaucracy was not immune from overt anti-Semitism atthe highest level.Keogh cites the Irish envoy to Berlin, Charles Bewley -he was eventually recalled and resigned from the department of ExternalAffairs. The Jewish community within the Free State numbered 3,900, themajority living in Dublin and organised by the Jewish RepresentativeCouncil (JRC). Although the JRC made representations to the Government onindividual cases, its success in getting Jews into the country was limitedto just a few.InApril 1995, the then Taoiseach John Bruton said: "We in Ireland have not been immune from the bigotry and theindifference, which manifested themselves in Europe this century."Heacknowledged that official Irish archives had revealed that Ireland's doors"were not freely open to those families and individuals fleeing frompersecution and death."

Keogh highlights the great contribution theJewish community has made to the country - in the arts, medicine, law andgovernment.He recounts numerous individual stories about the experiencesof Jewish men and women in a country that is 97% Catholic. ... Read more

Product Description
In this important study, reissued here in paperback along with a new historiographical essay, T.C. Barnard anatomizes the Irish problem of the mid-seventeenth century and connects it to the English politics and policies both before and after the interregnum. He looks closely at how and by whom Ireland was ruled and how its government was financed, and he explores in detail the primary Cromwellian goals in Ireland: propagating the Protestant gospel, providing English and Protestant education, advancing learning, and reforming the law. ...

While the index is reasonable and the chapter headingspretty clear, it can still be a frustrating search--with so muchpacked into the book, you've got to be methodical while usingit. Also, because of the quantity of regional events and agencies, youmay be frequently disappointed. There are lots of wonderful optionsout there, but not everyone lives in a large city that offerscommunity gardens, free cultural passes, and food cooperatives.Mixedin with these local helpers are some terrific ideas for making use ofnational parks and forests, the Small Business Administration, jobtraining, and tax assistance--national freebies that we can all use togood advantage. The chapter on college tuition can earn youthousands. The range of special scholarships available (Employed bythe footwear industry?

Product Description

Ireland's membership in the European Union has coincided with its transformation from a peripheral poor state into a dynamic economy with a level of wealth in line with the union's core states. This has led to great interest in the Irish model among other poorer, small state members of the EU--especially those in the 2004 accession round. In this major new assessment, Brigid Laffan and Jane O'Mahony provide a systematic analysis of the impact of the EU on Ireland and Ireland's impact on the EU.

Product Description
In the wake of the Easter Rising of 1916, Irish nationalism was transformed. The old Irish Nationalist Party was outflanked by the younger and more radical Sinn Fein. In the British general election of 1918, Sinn Fein took practically all the seats in nationalist Ireland. They had pledged themselves to a policy of not attending Westminster - instead they would constitute themselves as Dail Eireann, the parliament of Ireland. Dail Eireann met for the first time in Dublin in January 1919. It attempted to put into practice the Sinn Fein theory of an alternative government. It established an alternative administration to the official British one, complete with government departments, courts of law, a department of finance, a propaganda machine and other arms of civil administration. It was, of course, a rickety and sometimes provisional structure operated frequently by hunted men, but it remained intact throughout the Irish war of independence and secured the tacit allegiance of a large segment of the Irish nationalist population. This book examines the workings of this counter-state between 1919 and 1921. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Steven Ellis's careful political reinterpretation of English government in Ireland is based on a detailed institutional analysis of its administrative machinery. By frequent comparisons with other areas of Tudor rule, he offers important insights into both the operation and, more generally, the effectiveness of Tudor government.Instead of an embattled and ungovernable colony increasingly swamped by Gaelic customs and only nominally controlled by the antiquated Dublin administration, Dr Ellis describes a political society which is recognisably English, responsive to royal authority and governed through a subordinate central adminstration closely modelled on that of England. His researches vigorously challenge nationalist assumptions about interaction between English and Gaelic society in Ireland and the emergence of a Hiberno-Norman civilisation there. He also suggests a new framework for the political history of the medieval lordship and, demonstrates its survival into the sixteenth century as a meaningful political entity. ... Read more
