520 1 |a "John Redmond's Irish party, comprising both its MPs and affiliated organisations in Ireland, went from dominating nationalist politics in 1914 to electoral oblivion in 1918. The goal of limited Home Rule, constitutionally achieved within the empire, appeared to die with it." "Given the speed and extent of the party's disgrace, it has generally been seen as so decayed as to make its death inevitable, while also being fundamentally out of touch with the 'new' nationalism which succeeded it. Though such assumptions have been challenged, there has been no detailed study of the Irish party and its relationship to provincial nationalist opinion in the last years of the Union with Britain, before the world war and the Easter Rising transformed Irish politics." "Through a study of five counties in Ireland - Leitrim, Longford, Roscommon, Sligo, and Westmeath - that history has now been written. Far from being 'rotten', the Irish party was representative of nationalist opinion and not only intact but still capable of self-renewal and change. However, Irish nationalism was also suffused with an intensity of grievance and a fierce Anglophobia which came to the fore, first in the paramilitary mobilisation of the Home Rule crisis and then under the stresses of war. Though the party was sufficiently disciplined to remain loyal to its leader, Redmond, who epitomised nationalist moderation, it did so at the cost of slumping cohesion, enthusiasm, and activity, leaving it unable to withstand the shocks with which it would soon be assailed. Redmond's project, the peaceful attainment of Irish Home Rule, simply could not be realised."--BOOK JACKET.
