Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Records the history of four statues commemorating Thomas Spring Rice (independent MP for Limerick from 1820), Daniel O'Connell, Lord Viscount Fitzgibbon (killed at the Battle of Balaclava in the Crimean War) and Patrick Sarsfield (Irish Jacobite general who defended Limerick in 1691). While O'Connell's statue was erected in 1857 as an expression of Irish nationalism, the contemporary Fitzgibbon monument was installed to express Irish unionism, but the latter was to be thrown down in the twentieth century and replaced by one commemorating the Easter Rising of 1916. Together with the Treaty Stone (on which the 1691 Treaty of Limerick is said to have been signed), these monuments are placed in a national context of monument erection in nineteenth-century Ireland. | |||||
