Remains particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description: ix, 362 pages: map; 25 cm. Notes: In English with some Irish.

Land -- Text 7. 1795 -- 7. Rebellion -- Text 8. 1830 -- 8. Union? -- Conclusion -- Afterword. Summary: This book is a study of the Irish popular mind between the late-seventeenth and the early-nineteenth century. It examines the collective assumptions, aspirations, fears, resentments and prejudices of the common people as they are revealed in the vernacular literature of the period. The topics investigated include: politics, religion, historical memory, European conflicts, Anglo-Irish patriotism, agrarian agitation, the tumultuous decade of the 1790s, and the rise of Daniel O'Connell. Extensive use is made of contemporary song and verse preserved in literary manuscripts from the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries -- an essential source that has previously been neglected by historians. Elements of both continuity and change are identified, and the evolution of popular attitudes is traced over the hundred and fifty years from the Williamite conquest to O'Connell's campaign for Repeal of the Union. The texts of eight important works composed between 1691 and 1830 are presented in full -- seven of them translated for the first time -- to allow those who are unable to read the originals an opportunity to assess the temper of Irish popular culture during a formative period in the country's history. This book substantially revises, extends and updates the view of eighteenth-century Irish literature that was presented in Daniel Corkery's classical account, The Hidden Ireland. Subjects: Politics and culture Ireland 18th century. Irish literature 18th century History and criticism. Popular culture Ireland History 18th century. Irish literature History and criticism.

First Edition
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 8vo. Pagination variable. Original stapled typed mimeographs/ photocopies. 'The Renaissance Bulletin' was published with the agreement of the Renaissance Club, a Mitrinovic related organisation. The bulletin promoted the writings of the Serb philosopher Dimitrije Mitrinovic's Utopian ideas. He attracted followers such as H.C. Rutherford (whose name is written on No. 19), Violet MacDermot, Valerie Cooper, Ellen Mayne, Philip Mairet, Frederick Soddy and David Shillan. The New Atlantis Foundation was formed after Mitrinovic's death to promote his ideas. Included in these bulletins are some of Mitrinovic's writings on subjects such as 'Freud versus Adler', 'The Significance of Jung', 'Foundations of Genius: A Sermon on Nietzsche. ' and 'Adler's Educational Reform'. Other pieces include extracts from the preface to 'Visions and Revisions' by John Cowper Powys, who was invited to become President of the Renaissance Club following Mitrinovic's death, articles by Dr. Frederik van Eeden and Dr. Erich Gutkind, early collaborators with Mitrinovic, and 'A Summary' by David Shillan on Otto Weininger on Genius. Dimitrije Mitrinovic (1887 Ð 1953) wrote a series of influential articles in 1920 in the 'New Age: World Affairs' by M.M. Cosmoi (his pseudonym) edited by A.R. Orage. Mitrinovic was influenced by Ouspensky and Gurdjieff and he and Orage were both acquaintances of Aleister Crowley. Very good. Light wear otherwise very good.
