Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Present Irish Questions I have written much on Ireland from early youth, especially in the Edinburgh Review and the Times; and two works of mine, ´Ireland, 1494-1868´ published in ´The Cambridge Historical Series and Ireland, 1798-1898´ have been received with more than ordinary favour. I have ventured to think that the opinions of a veteran inquirer into Irish affairs, with respect to ´Present Irish Questions´ just now of much importance, and certain to be ere long fully discussed in Parliament and elsewhere, may be of some use to a younger generation, that will have to examine and must be affected by them. I am not unaware of the cynical remarks of Swift on the disregard shown to authors who may be said to have had their day; and I do not pretend that, in the instance of myself, ´old experience´ has given something of a ´prophetic strain´ to what is contained in this volume. But I can say, with truth, that few living men have had such opportunities as have fallen to my lot, during a long series of years, to understand Ireland in its different parts, and the feelings and sentiments of the Irish community; to form sound and moderate views on the many and perplexing phenomena called ´Irish Questions;´ to deal reasonably with Irish political and social problems, free from the influences? of party prejudice and passion; in short, to do my subject complete and impartial justice.
