The Minister and his Peace
Author: Rory T. Cornish
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1036413187
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
The British press in the eighteenth century significantly influenced politics, often making or breaking careers. The career of Lord Shelburne, the first Irish-born British Prime Minister, exemplifies this, yet he has remained something of an enigma. His brief administration (July 1782 to March 1783) was nonetheless notable for recognizing the independence of the United States. This investigation into the contemporary pamphlet press illustrates why he was so distrusted as well as the long-term influences shaping the 1783 Peace of Paris, and challenges the view that Shelburne was an idealist out of step with his times. On the contrary, it concludes many of his ideas were mainstream and pragmatic. Both the general and academic reader interested in eighteenth-century biography, British history, Atlantic colonial history, media studies, and peace studies will find this book valuable.

Terrorists, Anarchists, and Republicans
Author: Richard Whatmore
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691206643
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 512
Book Description
A bloody episode that epitomised the political dilemmas of the eighteenth century In 1798, members of the United Irishmen were massacred by the British amid the crumbling walls of a half-built town near Waterford in Ireland. Many of the Irish were republicans inspired by the French Revolution, and the site of their demise was known as Geneva Barracks. The Barracks were the remnants of an experimental community called New Geneva, a settlement of Calvinist republican rebels who fled the continent in 1782. The British believed that the rectitude and industriousness of these imported revolutionaries would have a positive effect on the Irish populace. The experiment was abandoned, however, after the Calvinists demanded greater independence and more state money for their project. Terrorists, Anarchists, and Republicans tells the story of a utopian city inspired by a spirit of liberty and republican values being turned into a place where republicans who had fought for liberty were extinguished by the might of empire. Richard Whatmore brings to life a violent age in which powerful states like Britain and France intervened in the affairs of smaller, weaker countries, justifying their actions on the grounds that they were stopping anarchists and terrorists from destroying society, religion and government. The Genevans and the Irish rebels, in turn, saw themselves as advocates of republican virtue, willing to sacrifice themselves for liberty, rights and the public good. Terrorists, Anarchists, and Republicans shows how the massacre at Geneva Barracks marked an end to the old Europe of diverse political forms, and the ascendancy of powerful states seeking empire and markets—in many respects the end of enlightenment itself.
