Riassunto

The Tithe-Proctor: A Novel is a literary work written by William Carleton and published in 1885. The book is set in Ireland during the 19th century and explores the complex relationship between the Irish peasantry and the English landlords who controlled their lives. The story centers around the character of Thady Conners, a tithe-proctor who works for the English landlord, Sir Thomas Rufford. Thady is tasked with collecting tithes, or taxes, from the Irish peasants, which leads to tension and conflict between him and the local community. Along the way, Thady must confront his own beliefs and values as he navigates the complex social and political landscape of rural Ireland. The novel is a powerful commentary on the injustices and inequalities of the time, as well as a compelling story of personal growth and redemption. Through its vivid characters and evocative setting, The Tithe-Proctor offers readers a window into a fascinating and turbulent period of Irish history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
