Description

Exploring the (political) life of John Redmond and the Irish Parliamentary Party tradition, this collection offers a new perspective on the legacy of the Redmond family using a longue durée approach, spanning from the nineteenth century Land War through to the death in 1952 of Bridget Redmond, the last member of the family elected to parliament. The book brings together an outstanding line-up of scholars, from different disciplines, who offer a range of new perspectives on Redmond, the IPP, and its origins and legacies. Drawing on numerous printed and archival sources, essays consider the influence of leaders Isaac Butt and Charles Stewart Parnell on Redmond; others examine aspects of Redmond’s own political philosophy whilst another offers a stimulating reassessment of Redmond’s attitude to women’s suffrage. These discussions are complemented by pieces focusing on the party during World War I and the legacy of Redmond and his party. Taken together, they explore the Home Rule movement in a broader context including examination of the continuities and discontinuities between the IPP and the parties that succeeded it, along with new analysis of gender and politics in independent Ireland through an exploration of the suffrage movement and the career of Bridget Redmond. Redmondism and the IPP are situated anew within the context of the politics of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; the British Empire, Home Rule, Nationalism, Unionism, World War I and the 1916 Rising. Encompassing the contemporary context of the post-Brexit landscape, this book will appeal to scholars, students and readers with an interest in Anglo-Irish relations. Edited by John O’Donoghue and Emer Purcell with a foreword by Maurice Manning, Chancellor of the National University of Ireland.
