Book Synopsis Parliaments, nations and identities in Britain and Ireland, 1660–1850 by : Julian Hoppit
Book excerpt: The abolition of the Scottish and Irish Parliaments in 1707 and 1800 created a United Kingdom centred upon the Westminster legislature. This text discusses what this meant for the four nations involved, and how conceptions of English, Irish, Scottish and Welsh identities were affected.
