(17861834) was a Roman Catholic Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin in Ireland, who used the signature "JKL", an acronym from "James Kildare and Leighlin." Doyle was active in the Anti-Tithe movement. A campaigner for Catholic Emancipation up to 1829, he was also an educator, church organiser and the builder of Carlow cathedral. Doyle was born close to New Ross, County Wexford in 1786, the posthumous son of a respectable farmer; his mother (Anne Warren, of Quaker extraction) was living in poverty at the time of his birth. At the age of eleven he witnessed all the horrors of the Battle of New Ross between the United Irishmen and British Crown forces supplemented by the militia and yeomanry. He received his early education at Clonleigh, at Rathconrogue at the school of a Mr. Grace, and later at the Augustinian College, New Ross under the care of an Augustinian monk, Rev. John Crane. Doyle joined the Augustinian friars in 1805 at Grantstown, County Wexford and then studied for his doctorate at Coimbra in Portugal (180608). His studies were disturbed by the Peninsular War, during which he served as a sentry in Coimbra. Later, he accompanied the British Army with Wellington's forces to Lisbon as an interpreter. Following Doyle's return to Ireland, he was ordained to the priesthood on 1 October 1809, at Enniscorthy. He taught logic at the Augustinian College, New Ross. In 1813, Doyle was appointed to a professorship at Carlow College, holding the Chair of Rhetoric and in 1814, the Professorship of Theology. Michael Corcoran, Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin, died on 22 February 1819. Doyle was a popular choice of the clergy and bishops of the Archdiocese of Dublin and was chosen by the Holy See as Corcoran's successor. He was formally named in August 1819 and was duly consecrated in Carlow Parish Church on 14 November. During his fifteen-year tenure as Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin, Doyle earned respect nationwide for his polemics in furtherance of the Catholic position in both Irish and British society, and in supporting the work of the Catholic Association. His books on pastoral, political, educational and inter-denominational matters provide a rich source of material for social and religious historians (see below). He was a close ally of Daniel O'Connell in the political campaign for Catholic Emancipation which was finally passed in 1829 by the Wellington government. Tithe - War: In 1830, the new tithe-proctor of Graigue (a parish of 4,779 Catholics and 63 Protestants) decided to break with the tradition of his predecessor and to enforce seizure orders for the collection of arrears of Tithes. Tithes provided financial support of the established Anglican Church of Ireland. Some of the recalcitrant Catholics had habitually transferred ownership of their livestock to Doyle in order to avoid seizure at the town fair. The new proctor requested their priest's cooperation in handing over the assets. Doyle refused, and the proctor, aided by the Irish Constabulary, seized some of the livestock. A mass riot broke out at the fair and there were several casualties. A civil disobedience campaign followed, peppered with sporadic violence mostly at country fairs over the seizure of livestock. A period of instability that would become known as the Tithe War followed. Doyle was a leader of nonviolent resistance to the Tithe, devoting himself both to strengthening the nonviolent resistance and to discouraging like paramilitary secret societies who had taken to using violence to drive out tithe-collectors and to intimidate collaborators. He said: "I maintain the right which [Irish Catholics] have of withholding, in a manner consistent with the law and their duty as subjects, the payment of tithe in kind or in money until it is extorted from them by the operation of the law." Given Doyle's prior experience in education, his major contribution was arguably in helping the establishment of National Schools across Ireland from 1831, the initiative of Edward Stanley, Chief Secretary of Ireland, which were initially started with a U.K. government grant of £30,000. The proposed system was ahead of state provision for education in England or Scotland at that time. This Model School prototype was, in some respects, experimental. His involvement is a sign of his practicality and foresight. He told his priests: "all the teachers henceforth to be employed be provided from some Model School, with a certificate of their competency, that will aid us in a work of great difficulty, to wit.

None. Condition: None. Folio album (ca. 32x26 cm or 12 ¾ x 10 ¼ in). 15 card stock leaves. With 31 original albumen photos, mostly large images ca. 19x25 cm (9 ¾ x 7 ½ in); two smaller photos are ca. 13x19 cm (5 x 7 ½ in). Four images with the studio credits in negative ("A. Briquet" or "E.J. Kildare. Foto. Guatemala"). Period style black half sheep album with cloth boards. Mounts slightly waved and age-toned, a few photos mildly faded, but overall a very good album of interesting photos. Historically significant collection of early, well-preserved albumen studio photographs of South and Central America, including interesting views of Lima, Chorillos, bridges and towns on the route of "Callao, Lima & Oroya Railway," Quito and the Quirigua archaeological site in Guatemala. Nineteen views of Peru include a series of photos of Lima: general view of the city with Rimac River, Puente de Piedra and Cerro San Cristobal in the background, Plaza Mayor with Metropolitan Cathedral, ornate Baroque decorations of the entrance gate to Basilica of Nuestra Señora de la Meced, Basilica and Convent of San Francisco (front view, inner courtyard with a fountain), Alameda de los Descalzos with Santa Liberata church in the left and Cerro San Cristobal in the background, Calle de Mercaderes, Malecon de Miraflores esplanade, three views of a waterfront with port facilities and businesses, likely in Callao, and Palacio de la Exposicion (the latter was attributed to Eugenio Courret). Very interesting is a historic view of the town of Chorillos (today a part of Metropolitan Lima), taken before the city was destroyed and looted by the Chilean Army during the War of the Pacific (Battle of Chorillos took place on January 13, 1881). Several photos show views on the route of the Callao, Lima & Oroya Railway: Verrugas Viaduct (this is the second version of the bridge, constructed in 1891 after the first bridge collapsed in a flood in 1889), a town in the mountains (possibly, Chicla), a railway on a mountain slope, and a trestle railway bridge. There are also six identified photos of Quito: two general and two close-up views featuring 17th-century La Recoleta convent (one - also Plaza del Centenario in the foreground), Sucre National Theatre (built in 1879-1886) and a public event on a central square (possibly, Plaza de la Independencia). A photo of a convent, closing the album, possibly also depicts a Quito landmark. Three rare photos by Edward Kildare show Maya stone stelae in the Quirigua archaeological site in south-eastern Guatemala, including close-up views of Stelae A and F, bearing the representations of the king of Quirigua, K?ak? Tiliw Chan Yopaat. Two smaller photos show a train going on a viaduct in Mexico (from Abel Briquet's "Vistas Mexicanas") and a steel bridge over a river. Overall an interesting album with rare original views of South American cities and sites in the late 19th century. "Edward James Kildare was a photographer who worked for Bradley & Rulofson, Taber, and Thomas Boyd. In the early 1880s, he moved to Guatemala City where he worked for Emilio Herbruger at Fotografía Imperial. He then set up his own studio, 'Palacio de Artes', with Alberto Valdeavellano" ( Bodleian Archives & Manuscripts ). "The French photographer Eugenio Courret (1841-190?) was associated with the photography studio of Manoury y Ca. in Lima, Peru from 1861 until 1863, when he established the Fotografía Central studio with his brother Aquiles (Aguiles; 1830-?). Eugenio was the photographer and Aquiles managed the business that became known as Courret Hermanos. Aquiles left the firm in 1877. Eugenio returned to France in 1892, eventually selling the firm to Adolfo Dubreuil, whose family ran the studio under the Courret name until 1934" ( Getty Research Collections ). "The Frenchman Alfred Saint Ange Briquet (1833-1926), better known as Abel Briquet, is considered to have been one of the first modern commercial photographers in Mexico. <?> He became known to a wider audience through his work in Mexico in the 1870s, where he was commissioned to photograph the new railway. In 1885, he opened a photography studio in Mexico City. Over the next 25 years, he published 13 successful photographic series on behalf of different contractors or developed them himself. His works typically show landscapes, cityscapes and "typical" scenes, as well as flora and fauna" (Thiel, F. Abel Briquet's Photograph Collection// Exploring the Archive: Historical Photography from Latin America. The Collection of the Ethnologisches Museum Berlin. Böhlau Verlag, 2015. P. 361).
