Recenzii
'Based on research undertaken in over 100 archives ranging from Halifax, Nova Scotia to Cape Town, South Africa and from Rome to Maynooth, and in many cities in between, this work will fundamentally transform our understanding of the role of the Irish Catholic Church in the British Empire. An outstanding addition to the history of religion in the English-speaking world in the nineteenth century.' Thomas Bartlett, University of Aberdeen
'Witty, erudite and based on an astonishing grasp of Catholic archives, Ireland's Empire is an intellectual tour de force. Filled with bathos and intrigue, Colin Barr has written a saga for the ages in this gripping history of the spiritual power of Greater Ireland in the age of empires.' Hilary M. Carey, University of Bristol
'One of the most important transnational studies of the spread of Irish Catholicism written in the last fifty years. It is a masterful examination of the growth of a network of Hiberno-Roman Catholic bishops with the power, influence and intrigue, of Ireland's Cardinal Paul Cullen at its centre. The book is a meticulous reconstruction of episcopal correspondence from dozens of ecclesiastical and civil archives spanning five continents. Challenging the existing historiography of global Irish Catholicism, this is sure to be devoured by historians across the globe.' Mark McGowan, University of Toronto
'This book is the fruit of immense archival labour, but nevertheless succeeds in telling a compelling, readable story.' Rory Rapple, The Tablet
'A well-written, solid study.' Breandan Mac Suibhne, The Irish Times
'Based on research in a hundred archives on five continents, and supplemented by wide reading in secondary literature, Barr's work is an extraordinary achievement.' Oliver P. Rafferty, S.J., History Ireland
'Barr's research in more than 100 archives in 12 countries and his knowledge of the literature (as revealed in the extensive bibliography) provide solid ground for this scholarly and insightful look at the worldwide expansion of Irish Catholicism.' R. M. Kollar, Choice
'Ireland's Empire compiles a treasure-house of knowledge … It's devoutly to be hoped that further volumes await from his discoveries … ' John L. Murphy, Spectrum Culture
'At its heart, Ireland's Empire is a work of top-down political history and it is an important, if deeply traditional, work in the field of Catholic history.' Ciaran O'Neill, Victorian Studies
