Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Part of the Maynooth Studies in Local History series. Why do a number of children look like the local dean? Did you hear that the bishop did not like the communion wine and spat it out, exclaiming "this is the basest wine I have ever tasted"? Such issues were hot topics of conversation in east Ulster in the 1690s. Despite the Williamite triumph after the wars of 1689-91 and the seeming deliverance of Irish Protestants from Catholic tyranny, the Church of Ireland faced numerous structural challenges - most notably in the diocese of Down and Connor. A number of concerns, not least of which was the resolute growth of Catholicism and Presbyterianism, troubled the hierarchy of the Established Church. This led to an investigation by royal commission in 1694 into the diocese's administration. The commissioners, Anthony Dopping and William King, discovered that the local bishop, Thomas Hackett, was wholly unfit for office and that the behaviour of some of the clergy was utterly scandalous. To make matters worse, their behaviour was well known and readily discussed by the laity, bringing shame and dishonor on the Church of Ireland. This short study uses the proceedings issued against Thomas Ward, dean of Connor, and the attempts of Dopping and King to restore the reputation of the Church of Ireland as a keyhole through which we can view local talk, gossip, scandal, communal and gender relations as well as sexual politics in early modern Ireland.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A new investigation into the 1641 Irish rebellion, contrasting its myth with the reality.After an evening spent drinking with Irish conspirators, an inebriated Owen Connelly confessed to the main colonial administrators in Ireland that a plot was afoot to root out and destroy Ireland's English and Protestant population. Within days English colonists in Ireland believed that a widespread massacre of Protestant settlers was taking place. Desperate for aid, they began to canvass their colleagues in England for help, claiming that they were surrounded by an evil popish menace bent on destroying their community. Soon sworn statements, later called the 1641 depositions, confirmed their fears (despite little by way of eye-witness testimony). In later years, Protestant commentators could point to the 1641 rebellion as proof of Catholic barbarity and perfidy. However, as the author demonstrates, despite some of the outrageous claims made in the depositions, the myth of 1641 became more important than the reality. The aim of this book is to investigate how the rebellion broke out and whether there was a meaning in the violence which ensued. It also seeks to understand how the English administration in Ireland portrayed these events to the wider world, and to examine whether and how far their claims were justified. Did they deliberately construct a narrative of death and destruction that belied what really happened? An obvious, if overlooked, contextis that of the Atlantic world; and particular questions asked are whether the English colonists drew upon similar cultural frameworks to describe atrocities in the Americas; how this shaped the portrayal of the 1641 rebellion incontemporary pamphlets; and the effect that this had on the wider Wars of the Three Kingdoms between England, Ireland and Scotland.
