  • Descrição: Boulanger was also a monarchist and opposed to the ideals of the French Revolution, and his politics were in fact a major inspiration behind the Vichy regime in the Second World War. In a description of her work promoting the plight of evicted tenants in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries the narrative suddenly, and without any explanation, switches to her indictment of the Free State government's treatment of republican prisoners in the Civil War of 1922–3. The fact that Gonne's indictment of the I.P.P. for encouraging Irish men to join the British army occurred fifteen years later and in the context of the First World War is not mentioned; the reader would be forgiven for thinking that Irish men were fighting and dying in France and Belgium in 1900. Skinnider's remarkable life involved revolutionary suffragist agitation, socialist activism, involvement in revolutionary violence, and transnational propaganda, in addition to being a significant organiser for the anti-Treaty I.R.A. followed by a long career in teaching and in trade union activism.
