Présentation de l'éditeur
Captein Frederick H. Crawford of Belfast and Mr. A xt Hur E. Ellis of Dublin, for their kindness on many occasions while I was writing Pbiests and People. Many of the most interesting photographs were taken for me by Mr. Ellis. With reference to the frontispiece, while it is, of course, an ideal picture intended to emphasise a contrast which strikes every student of life in Roman Catholic I reland, still it is only ideal in part. The church is a real church, expensive and ostentatious it is true, but not exceptionally so for I reland ;the village is a real one, not many miles away from the church, and it is not, by any means, an exceptionally wretched village. Several more glaring contrasts, existing in fact, were presented for my adoption; but a reluctance to hurt the feelings of the inhabitants of any stated locality induced me to adopt the idea of the present frontispiece.

Présentation de l'éditeur
The first edition of Priests and People was practically sold out within a fortnight after its appearance. Unwilling to presume too much upon public favour, I had made no provision for reproducing the work; and, in consequence, we were unable to supply the trade during the greater portion of September and all October. I sincerely thank the many newspapers that reviewed the work, and I express my indebtedness not less to those critics who have pointed out my shortcomings than to those, and they were many, who gave me their unqualified praise. I have incorporated the most recent county census papers in this edition, and it is satisfactory to me to find that my estimates of those counties in the first edition have been verified by the official returns. MICHAEL J. F. MCCARTHY.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book sheds light on the role of the Catholic Church in Irish society, specifically examining the power and influence of its priests. The author argues that the Church's pervasive presence in Irish life has stifled progress and perpetuated a cycle of dependency and underdevelopment in the country. The book contends that the Church's focus on obedience and subservience has hindered the intellectual and civic growth of Irish citizens, contributing to a lack of self-reliance and a reluctance to challenge authority. Through meticulous research and analysis, the author presents a thought-provoking exploration of the complex relationship between religion and social progress, delving into the historical and cultural factors that have shaped the current state of affairs in Ireland. The book's insights offer a valuable perspective on the enduring influence of religious institutions in shaping societal norms and behaviors. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331585350_0
