Jane Ohlmeyer, 'Eastward Enterprises: Colonial Ireland, Colonial India', Past & Present, 240, (1), 2018, p83-118 ,
Notes: [This article, published in the historical equivalent of Nature, derives from Ohlmeyer's current research. It invites us to rethink and re-evaluate the meaning of empire in the seventeenth century: empire as process; Ireland's position as England's first colony; Ireland as a 'laboratory' for empire in both the English Atlantic world and India; the contribution that people from Ireland made to European expansionism and imperialism; and the impact that empire had on mindsets and material culture, on the cuisine and clothing of people in early modern Ireland. Transnational and global history is very much in vogue but this article builds on Ohlmeyer's earlier work (published in volumes edited by Canny (1998), by Kenny (2004) and by Bourke and MacBride (2016)) on conquest, 'civilization', colonisation, and commercialisation; on her current collaborations with Richard Ross and Phil Stern on Anglicization in and through law in British America, Ireland and India; and on her research on the records of the East India company during the later seventeenth century. This article is also a taster for Ohlmeyer's next research project on 'Ireland, Empire, and the early modern world', which will form the basis of the Ford Lectures in Spring 2021. The Ford Lectures date from 1896 and over the years, less than 10 women have delivered them. The last person from a university in Ireland invited to give the Fords was F.S.L Lyons in 1977, when he was the Provost of Trinity College Dublin. ],

Jane Ohlmeyer, The Cambridge History of Ireland. Vol. 2. Early Modern Ireland, 1550-1730 , Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2017,
Notes: [The four-volume Cambridge History of Ireland cover 1500 years of Irish history. Aimed at a general as well as an academic readership, they offer an up to date and exciting synthesis of modern scholarship from the seventh century to the present, and a fresh assessment of the state of Irish history writing at the turn of the twenty-first century. The volumes bring together 100+ contributors from 38 institutions in China, the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Israel, and, of course, Ireland. Ohlmeyer worked very closely with the other editors to shape intellectual content and structure of these pioneering volumes. She commissioned the chapters, edited and wrote the introduction to volume 2 Early Modern Ireland, 1550-1730. Her volume challenges the traditional chronological emphases in order to stretch boundaries of expertise and to move beyond the familiar. It provides a multiplicity of perspectives and offers fresh appraisals of key figures and the familiar events that dominate the traditional historical landscape. Well-known men and lesser-known women, usually members of the elite, are re-evaluated alongside ordinary people, who are so often absent from the historical narrative, along with their families and local communities. Every effort has been made to interrogate all available evidence in whatever language it exists and in every form that it survives - written, visual, material, physical, and oral - and to draw insights from a variety of disciplines, especially anthropology, archaeology, digital humanities and literary, gender and cultural studies. Ohlmeyer hopes that her volume will encourage more comparative history. The fact that Ireland responded to similar sets of transformative processes as other states - globalisation, state formation, confessionalisation, the professionalisation of warfare, commercialisation and so on - and was part of a 'composite monarchy' and the British empire facilitates greater comparative and transnational approaches. The importance of The Cambridge History of Ireland as the 'go to' volumes for anyone interested in Irish history and what it means to be Irish cannot be overstated. ],
