| Synopsis: |
William Drennan played an active part in the Irish Volunteer movement in the 1780s; in the United Irish movement in the 1790s; and in the campaign of the Protestant interest in Ireland against the passing of the Act of Union during the years after the suppression of the 1798 Rebellion. This volume in a set of three contains a selection of letters exchanged between Drennan, a member of the Dublin United Irish Society, his brother-in-law, Sam M'Tier, active in the Belfast Society, and Martha, wife and sister to United Irishmen. The letters form part of a communications network binding the decentralized United Irish Societies together. A problem that reoccurs in the letters is how the reforming Dissenters are to relate to Catholics. The Glorious Revolution ideology was anti-Catholic, suppressing some liberties in order to develop others, and to preserve the property arrangements made by the Revolution. Catholics and Protestants found common ground in the ideology of the Rights of Man, but difficulties remained. This volume contains some published poems written by Drennan as well as a 1795 pamphlet. |
