A concise, documentary look at a key chapter in 19th‑century religious debate. This edition reproduces the Proceedings of the Anti‑Maynooth Conference of 1845, with an historical introduction and an appendix by A. S. Thelwall. It frames the gathering, its aims, and the broad cross‑denominational response that shaped the debate over Maynooth endowment.
Readers follow the sequence of public meetings, committee work, and conference sessions that defined the opposition to Maynooth funding. The historical introduction places the events in a broader religious and political context, while the appendix provides additional documentation that supports the record of the time. The book presents a clear, source‑driven view of a Protestant response to state policy on religion.
Ideal for readers of 19th‑century British religious history and those interested in the era’s public debates about church and state.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides an in-depth look at the historical struggle against the endowment of Maynooth, a Roman Catholic seminary in Ireland. The Maynooth controversy was a significant moment in the political and religious history of both Ireland and the United Kingdom. The book traces the origins of the Protestant opposition to Maynooth and examines the arguments for and against state funding of Catholic education. The author provides a detailed account of the campaign led by British Protestants to prevent the endowment of Maynooth, culminating in a series of public meetings, petitions, and debates in Parliament. The book also explores the broader historical and theological context of the Maynooth controversy, discussing the relationship between church and state in Ireland and the wider struggle for Catholic emancipation.
