Introduction: The Study of Sectarian Violence and Modern Ulster History -- Trouble in Armagh, 1784-1798 -- Orange Order and Catholic Resistance, 1795-1820 -- National Politics and Sectarian Violence, 1821-1829 -- Ritual and Sectarian Violence -- Urbanization and Sectarian Rioting in Mid-Victorian Ulster -- Campaign to Repeal the Party Processions Act, 1860-1872 -- Conclusion: Sectarian Violence and the Formation of Modern Ulster Politics
"Rituals and Riots has at its core a subject frequently ignored - the rioters themselves. Rather than focusing on political and religious leaders in a top-down model, Sean Farrell demonstrates how lower-class attitudes gave rise to violent clashes and dictated the responses of the elite. Farrell also penetrates the stereotypical images of the Irish Catholic as untrustworthy rebel and the Ulster Protestant as foreign oppressor in his discussion of the style and structure of nineteenth-century sectarian riots."--Jacket.
