About the Book

This title brings together 13 of the leading historians of the period to investigate the political, social and cultural significance of the Irish Act of Union. Marking the bicentennary of the passage of the act, the contributors combine to provide an authoritative account of the state of the historical debate. Divided in four sections, the book investigates the origins of the act, its actual passage into legislation, the political debate which surrounded the act in Ireland and beyond, and the central role played by religious considerations in its final shaping. This volume provides the results of recent research into the passing of the union, and supplies the reader with a valuable starting-point for understanding the significance of the 1801 union of Ireland with Britain.
