William Parsons, 3rd Earl of Rosse
Author: R. Charles Mollan
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1526101939
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
This is a revealing account of the family life and achievements of the Third Earl of Rosse, a hereditary peer and resident landlord at Birr Castle, County Offaly, in nineteenth-century Ireland, before, during and after the devastating famine of the 1840s. He was a remarkable engineer, who built enormous telescopes in the cloudy middle of Ireland. The book gives details, in an attractive non-technical style which requires no previous scientific knowledge, of his engineering initiatives and the astronomical results, but also reveals much more about the man and his contributions – locally in the town and county around Birr, in political and other functions in an Ireland administered by the Protestant Ascendancy, in the development and activities of the Royal Society, of which he was President from 1848–54, and the British Association for the Advancement of Science. The Countess of Rosse, who receives full acknowledgement in the book, was a woman of many talents, among which was her pioneering work in photography, and the book includes reproductions of her artistic exposures, and many other attractive illustrations.

Spotlights on Irish History
Author: Brendan Clifford
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
This work is based on discussions held at a series of meetings on historical subjects by the Aubane Historical Society under the auspices of the Duhallow Heritage Centre, in Newmarket, County Cork during the 1990s. The discussions at the eight meetings amounted to something approaching a history of Ireland from the 1640s to the 1920s. The Williamite conquest is the only substantial gap. The book examines the major personalities, movements and events through which Ireland developed from what Pearse called a mob into a nation.
