Ireland in the Age of the Tudors, 1447-1603 : English Expansion and the End of Gaelic Rule, Paperback / softback Book

Ireland in the Age of the Tudors, 1447-1603 : English Expansion and the End of Gaelic Rule Paperback / softback

Part of the Longman History of Ireland series

Paperback / softback

Description

The second edition of Steven Ellis's formidable work represents not only a survey, but also a critique of traditional perspectives on the making of modern Ireland.

It explores Ireland both as a frontier society divided between English and Gaelic worlds, and also as a problem of government within the wider Tudor state.

This edition includes two major new chapters: the first extending the coverage back a generation, to assess the impact on English Ireland of the crisis of lordship that accompanied the Lancastrian collapse in France and England; and the second greatly extending the material on the Gaelic response to Tudor expansion.
