(Clements), 1839. The original ed. was anon. — by the Author of " Montorio " [i.e., " Dennis Jasper Murphy "]. Intended as an exposition of the unhappy condition of Ireland and as a picture of the life and manners of the time. The former is soon lost sight of, but the latter is well carried out. The hero is a strong Nationalist who works wholly for Ireland's cause. Apart from this graver purpose, interest is sustained by a succession of exciting incidents and by good character drawing. There is... little plot, a great deal of sentiment, and a great many disreputable intrigues, without, however, objectionable details. The scene varies between Dublin and the W. of Ireland — life in the family of a Protestant landowner and in that of a Catholic feudal chief. Period, c. 1806-8. The society depicted is that of the aristocratic classes. Author's standpoint full of sympathy and even admiration for Ireland, strongly Protestant (Ch. of I.) and anti-" Roman." LE JEUNE IRLANDAIS. Four Vols. (Paris).
