Excerpt from Diary of the Parnell Commission: Revised From "the Daily News" What were the beginnings of the public inquiry which the Special Commission has brought to an end? When Mr. P. O'Connor was in the witness-box he told Mr. Ronan, with an amusing expression of surprise and compassion, that they were about three centuries old. For, whatever else it might be, the inquiry was an incident of the "Parnell Movement"; and Mr. Ronan, conscious that he must begin his cross-examination somehow, but feeling a little fluttered, had just asked the historian of the movement to tell him when the movement began. Sir Henry James, in an address which even his opponents frankly admire for its ability and ingenuity, and a courtesy and considerateness that render it all the more formidable - Sir Henry James traces the origin of the inquiry to a speech of Mr. Parnell's, made during the debate on the Address, February, 1887, and warning the Government against the dangers of Coercion. But if a date must be chosen, why not make it thirty-five minutes to one of the morning of the 7th of June, 1886, when the House of Commons saw one of the most impressive scenes in its great history; when it had just reached the "parting of the ways," and each had chosen his path; and when, with an impulse characteristic of their race, the solid mass of Irish Nationalists sprang up with "three cheers for the Grand Old Man," in the hour of his defeat. The inquiry has been an expression of a general and far-reaching consequence - the re-grouping of men, in accordance with their choice between rival notions of right and duty, between rival political ideals, even between rival estimates of human nature - which has followed from that night's test, as surely as in a chemist's tube the ingredients are "precipitated" by a drop. And so, as regards Ireland, the first signs of the coming conflict manifested themselves in the February debate, of which Sir Henry James has spoken. The next came from The Times. On the 7th of March, 1887, appeared the first article of the famous series known as "Parnellism and Crime," the second on the 14th, the third on the 18th. And on the 22nd, Mr. Balfour answered the challenge of June, 1886, by giving notice of his Coercion Bill. The Times articles had prepared the way for him. For Mr. Balfour's purpose, they were worth a dozen speeches. It is hardly correct to say that they were a mere "re-hash" of forgotten accusations; for though more open to this criticism than subsequent ones, they also, like these - though in a less degree - presented the accusations with a definiteness, a systematic comprehensiveness, and a connection of detail, which were new to the public.

Charles Stewart Parnell (1846-1891) wrote remarkably little about himself, but he has attracted the attention of many writers, politicians, and scholars, both during his lifetime and ever since. His controversial and provocative role in Irish and British affairs had him vilified as a murderer in The Times, and afterwards dramatically vindicated by the Westminster Parliament. It cast him as a romantic hero to the young James Joyce, and a self-serving opportunist to the journalists of the Nation. Parnell has been the subject of court cases, parliamentary enquiries and debates, journalism, plays, poems, literary analysis and historical studies. For the first time all these have been collected, catalogued and cross-referenced in one volume, an invaluable resource for scholars of late nineteenth century Ireland and Britain. Divided into fifteen chapters, including a biographical sketch, the volume contains information on manuscript and archival collections, printed primary sources, Parnell's writing, Parnell's speeches in the House of Commons and outside Parliament, contemporary journalism, contemporary writing, and contemporary illustrations on Irish affairs, and a substantial list of scholarly work, including biographies, books, articles, chapters, and theses. This volume offers readers a clear record of the substantial material already available on Parnell, and in doing so offers resources to future research in this area.
