About this product

Product Information

Exploring 'honour politics' in the early modern period, Brendan Kane reveals that honour played a powerful role in determining the character of Anglo-Irish society, politics and cultural contact, and brings a cultural perspective to our understanding of English imperialism in Ireland and of the Irish responses to it.

"...a rich and scholarly study of the role of honor in political and cultural contexts in Britain and Ireland...In this book, Brendan Kane has displayed sparkling enthusiasm for the subject at hand, making it entirely accessible to both a specialist and nonspecialist audience, through a skilfully written narrative. These factors, combined with its undoubted contribution to the historiography, make this book worthy of widespread attention." - Annaleigh Margey, Renaissance Quarterly, "Kane makes perceptive and resourceful use of literary sources to illuminate his theme. He draws out the extraordinarily important role that honour politics played in shaping the values and identity of the British and Irish elites during this period, and by recovering their obsession with honour he is able to construct a sophisticated cultural history of high politics." - David Smith, Historical Journal, "Kane's erudite book challenges those Irish historians who would reduce all political action to the pursuit of material self-interest...Kane's Politics and Culture of Honour is a valuable and rewarding study, good to think with, and, as such, will be vital reading for all students of early modern Ireland." - Ian Campbell, Irish Historical Studies, "...the author offers a finely grained study of Irish honor, firmly situated within the wider Anglo-Irish world." -Linda A. Pollack, The Journal of Modern History, 'Kane makes perceptive and resourceful use of literary sources to illuminate his theme. He draws out the extraordinarily important role that honour politics played in shaping the values and identity of the British and Irish elites during this period, and by recovering their obsession with honour he is able to construct a sophisticated cultural history of high politics.' David Smith, Historical Journal, '… this is a rich and suggestive book that correctly alerts historians of early modern Ireland to the need for greater awareness of cultural issues when they seek to explain the transformations wrought on that island during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.' James Kelly, American Historical Review, '… a rich and scholarly study of the role of honor in political and cultural contexts in Britain and Ireland … In this book, Brendan Kane has displayed sparkling enthusiasm for the subject at hand, making it entirely accessible to both a specialist and nonspecialist audience, through a skilfully written narrative. These factors, combined with its undoubted contribution to the historiography, make this book worthy of widespread attention.' Annaleigh Margey, Renaissance Quarterly, '… an impressively detailed and well researched book with a persuasive and coherent central argument … excellent.' Andrew Hopper, Journal of Early Modern History, "In a densely detailed, thorough examination...Kane skilfully guides the reader through the myriad personalities, policies, and perceptions of not simply theoretical ideas of honor, but also how ever-present honor was and how it functioned in Gael-Gall relations...Kane has produced a text that will be richly mined by both students and scholars in the field for years to come." -Kyle Lynch-Baldwin, Sixteenth Century Journal, 'In a densely detailed, thorough examination … Kane skilfully guides the reader through the myriad personalities, policies, and perceptions of not simply theoretical ideas of honor, but also how ever-present honor was and how it functioned in Gael-Gall relations … Kane has produced a text that will be richly mined by both students and scholars in the field for years to come.'
