Book Description
This collection of essays investigates instances of radicalism in the Catholic church in Ireland between 1660 and 1970. The subject is examined through the lives of nine clerics who came into conflict with Church and state authorities on political and social issues. The clerics studied here were all prominent figures at local or national level, and two of them were executed in the eighteenth century.
