Description: |
This is a comprehensive and wide-ranging analysis of relations between landlords and tenants in Ireland in the middle decades of the nineteenth century. In place of the conventional image of predatory and all-powerful landlords, and oppressed, impoverished tenants, Dr Vaughan presents a scholarly and subtle picture of complex mutual accommodation, thus revising the traditional view of land relations in nineteenth-century Ireland. |
Synopsis: |
This is a study of relations between landlords and tenants in Ireland between the great famine and the land war. Based on a remarkably wide range of primary sources, most notably collections of estate papers, it is a comprehensive and wide-ranging analysis, in which W.E. Vaughan explores evictions, rents, tenant right, estate management, agrarian outrages, and tenants' resistance to landlords. Dr Vaughan questions many assumptions about landlord-tenant relations that have previously been uncritically accepted. |
