Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Ecclesiastical History of Ireland, From the First Introduction of Christianity Among the Irish, to the Beginning of the Thirteenth Century, Vol. 1 of 4: Compiled From the Works of the Most Esteemed Authors, Foreign and Domestic, Who Have Written and Published on Matters Connected With the Irish Church; And From Irish Annals and Other Authentic Documents, Still Existing in Manuscripts In these times, when a laudable spirit of research pervades almost every civilized people of the globe, and that the histories of the most remote nations, as well barbarous as polite, are sought after with an extraordinary degree of curiosity, and read with proportionate avidity, the publication of an Ecclesiastical History of Ireland must be considered as a useful undertaking, from which much interesting information on the ancient state of the Christian church may be collected. The frigid apathy, however, with which the generality of Irish readers slur over every publication that treats of the ancient state of their native country, might be sufficient to deter an author from an enterprize of that nature; but although discouraging such an unpatriotic feeling as exhibits itself in the great bulk of our countrymen must be, there are still several learned and investigating gentlemen amongst our compatriots, as well as in the Sister Island, and on the Continent, by whom such a work has been long and anxiously desiderated, and from whom a liberal encouragement may, therefore, be reasonably expected.
