Name: Dánta Eoghan Rua O'Sullivan Subtitle: Poems of Eoghan Rua O'Sullivan Author: O'Sullivan, Eoghan Rua Editor: Muldowney, Pat Category: Gaelic Collection Publisher: Aubane Historical Society Published: 2009 ISBN: 978 1 903497 57 9 Contents: Eoghan an Bhéil ar an saol aris! This book is a copanion volume to the Aislingi or Vision Poems of Eoghan Rua O'Sullivan re-published by the Aubane Historical Society in 2002. The present volume includes the other poems attributed to Eoghan in the editions of his work published by Pádraig Ua Duinnín (1901 and 1923), and by Risteárd Ó Foghludha (1937). Also included in this edition are some previously unpublished manuscript poems attributed to Eoghan, and lines and verses which were omitted by Ua Duinnín and Ó Foghludha because they were too risqué for publication in editions which those editors optimistically expected to be used as school textbooks. The poems published here for the first time are attributed to Eoghan in the Royal Irish Academy manuscripts, in the Ferriter Collection in University College Dublin. The full version of Molly Casey's Charms is from a manuscript in Mount Melleray library. The Gaelic fonts were created by Vincent Morley. Terry Curran designed the cover. In the eighteenth century, and even the nineteenth, the poems of Eoghan Rua were kept in circulation by arduous manual transcription carried on in difficult circumstances. After a lapse of seventy years since Ó Foghludha's edition, this re-publication of part of our literary inheritance is long overdue. Eoghan Ó Súilliobháin (his own spelling) died in 1784, aged about 36. His muse lives in these pages. Extracts: There are no online extracts available at this time.

Name: Das Kapital Reviewed Subtitle: A modern business approach to Marxism Author: Martin, John Editor: Category: General Publisher: Athol Books Published: 2007 ISBN: 9 780 85034 115 7 Contents: This book is a review of Karl Marx's Das Kapital from a businessman's perspective. John Martin gives a clear concise summary of the ideas contained in the three volumes of Marx's classic work and then subjects them to criticism. Das Kapital describes the laws of motion of the capitalist system. Marx had very little to say about the transition from capitalism to communism and still less about what a communist society might look like. Therefore the relevance of Marx's work does not stand or fall on the fortunes of the communist movement. Indeed the author argues that the persistence of the capitalist system and its continued expansion throughout the world makes the ideas of Marx more relevant in the twenty-first than in the nineteenth century when the work was written. There are two insights of Marx which are more relevant today than they were in his own time. The first is the idea that capitalism socialises production even if ownership remains in private hands. The second insight is the idea that capitalism has a tendency to incorporate the world into its system. The current word for this phenomenon is "Globalisation". The author compares Marx's theoretical view of the capitalist system with his own practical experience and concludes that Marx's analysis gives a better theoretical framework for understanding the system than modern economics textbooks. Notwithstanding Marx's errors, which the author discusses, the overall conclusion is that it is far too soon to consign Marx to the dustbin of history. John Martin has an Honours Degree in Economics and Politics, and is a fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland. He has worked as a Financial Controller, Director, and General Manager, and is currently a part owner of an Irish Manufacturing company. Extracts: There are no online extracts available at this time.

Name: Derry And The Boyne Subtitle: Author: Plunket, Nicholas Editor: Clifford, Brendan Category: Northern Ireland Collection Publisher: Belfast Historical & Educational Society Published: 1990 ISBN: 1 872078 01 X Contents: This book is made up of a contemporary account of the Siege of Derry and the Battle of the Boyne by an Irish Jacobite soldier, whose name was probably Nicholas Plunket, along with a historical introduction by Brendan Clifford. Catholic Ireland in all its variety - and it had considerable variety within itself in those times - was willing and eager to settle down under the Stuart monarchy. The Old Irish and Old English were in perfect agreement about the legitimacy of the Stuarts as kings of Ireland, and they were especially happy with James II. But twice within half a century - in 1641 and 1688 - rebellions in England disrupted the public life of Ireland, overturned the Irish Constitution, and plunged the country into war. Plunket's narrative begins with the restoration of the Stuart monarchy in 1660, when the first English rebellion had petered out because of its inability to establish a viable state, and it describes in interesting detail the valiant effort made by the Irish to preserve their monarchy in the face of the second English rebellion. Brendan Clifford's Introduction shows what happened in Ireland between 1641 and 1690. It describes the Confederation of Kilkenny; the alliance between Owen Roe O'Neill and the Cromwellians; the emergence of liberal Catholicism; the enthusiasm of the Gaels for James II; the context of European politics, which was dominated by the conflict between Catholic France and the decade prior to 1688; James' attempt to establish freedom of religion; the Revolution; and he compares the extension of the English revolutionary regime to Ireland with the extension of the Russian revolutionary regime to Easter Europe. Here, on the tercentenary of the Battle of the Boyne, is the real story of how it all happened and what it was all about. 132 pp. Extracts: No extra online material at this time.
