The Principles of Peace: Exemplified in the Conduct of the Society of Friends in Ireland, During the Rebellion of the Year 1798 is a historical account of the Society of Friends (also known as Quakers) in Ireland during the 1798 rebellion. Written by Thomas Hancock and originally published in 1825, the book provides a detailed examination of the Quakers' commitment to non-violence and their efforts to promote peaceful resolution of conflicts during a time of great turmoil and violence.The book begins with an overview of the Society of Friends and their beliefs, particularly their commitment to pacifism and non-violent resistance. It then delves into the specific events of the 1798 rebellion in Ireland, including the causes and key players involved. Throughout the book, Hancock provides numerous examples of the Quakers' efforts to promote peace and non-violence, including their work as mediators and negotiators between conflicting parties.In addition to its historical content, The Principles of Peace also serves as a philosophical exploration of the principles of pacifism and non-violent resistance. Hancock argues that these principles are not only morally right, but also practical and effective in promoting lasting peace and resolving conflicts. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Society of Friends, the 1798 rebellion in Ireland, or the principles of pacifism and non-violent resistance.Also Preliminary And Concluding Observations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
