Synopsis
A study of the later years and writings of Michael Davitt, the "Father of the Land League." Michael Davitt's story of suffering and self-sacrifice, childhood eviction and exile, youthful radicalism, harsh imprisonment, and eventual triumph over adversity ensures his memory in the pages of history. His early life and role in the Land League have been well-served by historians; however, his mature years remain largely in the shade. This book uncovers Davitt above and beyond the Land League. Michael Davitt: After the Land League brings Davitt's later story back into the light by exploring his career in the twenty-four years between his leadership of the Land League and his death in 1906. Davitt expert Dr. Carla King unveils the leading themes in Davitt's life post Land League: education, nationalism and democracy, prison reform, imperialism, international affairs, the women's question, and the labor movement. His continued dedication to the land question and Irish affairs are demonstrated through his focus on Home Rule, the Plan of Campaign and the United Irish League. His extensive travels abroad from Western Europe to the United States, the Middle East, Russia, Australia, and beyond reveal an awakening internationalist outlook. His passion for international affairs from Anglo-American relations, British imperialism to the Boer War and Russia's treatment of its Jewish population are all here, rich in the telling. King thoroughly delves into the role of Davitt as a public intellectual, assessing how his books, journalistic writing, and participation in many of the leading debates of his time gave voice to a strand of radical, Secular, anti-imperialist nationalism-that put him in many respects ahead of his time. Without considered attention to his later years, King asserts, we fail to grasp the extensive scale of Davitt's deep imprint on the evolution of modern Ireland. With extensive archival research including Davitt's own papers, Michael Davitt: After the Land League demonstrates that while the formation and leadership of the Land League was a vital contribution to Ireland, it was far from being Davitt's only legacy.
