Social and marriage networks of this latter group have received little scholarly attention, and this volume helps to fill that gap. It looks at the social networks for one Catholic elite family, how important religion was to that family, what the impact was on their marriage choices and the connection between their networks and education choices. With Catholicism as a common denominator for most French and Irish people during that period, the study is based on the Franco-Irish Mansfield family in Co. Kildare. It leans largely on family and estate papers and includes a quantitative analysis of a French-language diary kept by Alice Mansfield (né e De Fé russac) between 1877 and 1887. The diary was transcribed, translated and analysed to provide a view of the family's social network in Ireland and France.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fergus Murphy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1801510989\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781801510981\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Four Courts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Fergus Murphy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44365427998975,"sku":"9781801510981","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c024a22b-9897-4718-b29a-6cec2533d4d6.jpg?v=1697058465","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mansfields-of-county-kildare-fergus-murphy-9781801510981","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
