Book Description
Bringing into relief the singularity of Barry's unswerving commitment to his vision for history painting despite adverse cultural, political and commercial currents, these essays on Barry and his contemporaries offer new perspectives on the painter's life and career. Contributors, including some of the best known experts in the field of British eighteenth-century studies, set Barry's works and writings into a rich political and social context, particularly in Britain. Among other notable achievements, the essays shed new light on the influence which Barry's radical ideology and his Catholicism had on his art; they explore his relationship with Reynolds and Blake, and discuss his aesthetics in the context of Burke and Wollstonecraft as well as Fuseli and Payne Knight. The volume is an indispensable resource for scholars of eighteenth-century British painting, patronage, aesthetics, and political history.

Book Description
Excerpt from Sketches of the Irish Bar, Vol. 2 of 2: With Essays, Literary and Political An English writer 'of the 17th century has sketched the character of 'a perfect-lawyer, from which I extract the con cluding sentence for the benefit of the learned saints of Ire land. In a word, whilst he lives, he is the delight of the courts, the ornament of the' bar, the glory of his profession, the patron of innocency, the upholder of right, the scourge of oppression, the terror of deceit, and the oracle of his country and when death calls him to the bar of Heaven by a kabeas corpus cum camis, he finds his judge his advocate, nonsuits the devil, obtains a liberate from all his infirmities, and continues still one of the long rohe in glory.
