Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Count Plunkett: The Man and His Message It has often been said of Parnell that he was more of an institution than a personality, and it might with equal truth be said that Count Plunkett is not a personality but a principle: indeed, it is quite possible that the Roscommon Election which first returned an avowed advocate of an independent Irish Republic may mark as important an epoch in the future history of our country as the Clare Election which returned in Daniel O´Connell the first Catholic. Whether or not Ireland is ever to realise this last dream of her dreamers is beside the point: the importance of the event lies in the novelty of outlook which it has given to Englishmen no less than Irishmen upon the century-old controversy of Home Rule, and it is one which certainly calls for a criticism of the policy it indicates if for no other reason than its novelty.
