History
Paperback. Social Thought on Ireland in the Nineteenth Century is a contribution to the intellectual history of Ireland and to the history of human sciences. It seeks to document a selected yet systematic set of views on Ireland as ‘Other’ during the nineteenth century. The contributors represent a range of academic disciplines, and of the ten chapters, six comprise the views on Ireland (social, cultural and political) of significant thinkers from outside the island. The selected thinkers are: Gustave de Beaumont (1802–66), friend of Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–59); John Stuart Mill (1806–73); Harriet Martineau (1802–76); Sir Henry Maine (1822–88); Karl Marx (1818–83) and Friedrich Engels (1820–95); and James Anthony Froude (1818–94). The two significant themes of Celticism and Race – constructs through which the Irish were frequently viewed – are also included in separate chapters, in which attention will be given to the thought of Matthew Arnold and Robert Knox. All of this is accompanied by an historical Introduction by R. V. Comerford and a concluding Afterword by Peter Gray. READERSHIP: Students and academics of Irish history as well as the general reader. EDITOR: Séamas Ó Síocháin is a former senior lecturer in anthropology at the National University of Ireland Maynooth, and the author of Roger Casement: Imperialist, Rebel, Revolutionary and joint editor of The Eyes of Another Race: Roger Casement’s Congo Report and 1903 Diary.
