This volume offers fresh perspectives on the political, military, religious, social, cultural, intellectual, economic, and environmental history of early modern Ireland and situates these discussions in global and comparative contexts. The opening chapters focus on 'Politics' and 'Religion and War' and offer a chronological narrative, informed by the re-interpretation of new archives. The remaining chapters are more thematic, with chapters on 'Society', 'Culture', and 'Economy and Environment', and often respond to wider methodologies and historiographical debates. Interdisciplinary cross-pollination - between, on the one hand, history and, on the other, disciplines like anthropology, archaeology, geography, computer science, literature and gender and environmental studies - informs many of the chapters. The volume offers a range of new departures by a generation of scholars who explain in a refreshing and accessible manner how and why people acted as they did in the transformative and tumultuous years between 1550 and 1730.

The Cambridge History of Ireland

Atrocity, Codes of Conduct and the Irish in the British Civil Wars 1641–1653

The following is an extensive list of English language publications relating to Irish economic and social history that were published worldwide in 2014. It consists of monographs, articles, essays and collections of essays. While this is not an exhaustive list, every effort was made to identify as many writings as possible. This was done by searching for additions to Academic Search Complete (www.ebscohost.com/academic/academicsearchcomplete), the Brepolis bibliography of British and Irish History (www.brepolis.net) and Irish History Online (www.irishhistoryonline.ie), hosted by the Royal Irish Academy in 2014.

The Aftermath of 1282: Dafydd ap Gwilym and his Contemporaries

"Set along both the physical and social margins of the British Empire in the second half of the seventeenth century, Everyday Life in the Early English Caribbean explores the construction of difference through the everyday life of colonial subjects. Jenny Shaw examines how marginalised colonial subjects - Irish and Africans - contributed to these processes. By emphasising their everyday experiences Shaw makes clear that each group persisted in its own cultural practises; Irish and Africans also worked within - and challenged - the limits of the colonial regime. Shaw's research demonstrates the extent to which hierarchies were in flux in the early modern Caribbean, allowing even an outcast servant to rise to the position of island planter and underscores the fallacy that racial categories of black and white were the sole arbiters of difference in the early English Caribbean. The everyday lives of Irish and Africans are obscured by sources constructed by elites. Through her research, Jenny Shaw overcomes the constraints such sources impose by pushing methodological boundaries to fill in the gaps, silences and absences that dominate the historical record. By examining legal statutes, census material, plantation records, travel narratives, depositions, interrogations and official colonial correspondence, as much for what they omit as for what they include, Everyday Life in the Early English Caribbean uncovers perspectives that would otherwise remain obscured. This book encourages readers to rethink the boundaries of historical research and writing and to think more expansively about questions of race and difference in English slave societies.

Ireland's Puritan Revolution? The Emergence of Ulster Presbyterianism Reconsidered

Presbyterian History in Ireland: Two Seventeenth-Century Narratives

These sentiments, expressed in 1697, might have been articulated by any number of Protestant ministers, in any number of settings across the seventeenth century and, as in this case, with particular force in the years after the Revolution of 1688–9, interpreted readily in terms of the nefarious schemes of ‘popery’ as well as ‘arbitrary government’. In this instance, they were voiced by an Irish-born Presbyterian—but not in Ireland. These Truths in a True Light … Vindicating the Non-conformists were addressed to the ‘Reformed Protestants’ of Barbados by Francis Makemie, whom later generations would nominate the ‘father of American Presbyterianism’. Alongside its well-worn anti-Romanism, Makemie was addressing the profound changes which had swept across the Protestant world of the Stuart kingdoms in 1689–90. If he spoke directly of the legalisation of a form of toleration in England, arguably greater break came with the re-establishment of Presbyterianism in Scotland and with it the recognition that Scotland and England would have legally established, but very distinctly ordered, Protestant churches.2 The implications would colour Makemie’s whole career, and bear directly upon the experience of the community from whom he received his religious formation, the Presbyterians of Ireland.3
