• W2604026437 abstract "The Real Archbishop Mannix from the Sources Authors: James Franklin, Gerald O Nolan, Michael Gilchrist; Publisher: Ballarat: Connor Court, 2015 ISBN: 97811925138344 Paperback, 277 pages, $29.95 Few figures in Australian history have been more extolled by their admirers or more excoriated by their critics than the larger than life figure of Melbourne's fiery son of Erin, Archbishop Daniel Mannix. With a career spanning the greater part of fifty years of Australia political, social, and religious history, Mannix's life was lived amidst the hustle and bustle of rapid social change and any book treating this gaunt and wiry prelate--an undertaker-like visage who for half a century could be seen almost daily as he swept like a haunting spectre down the Melbourne streets en route from Raheen to St Patrick's Cathedral--provides a unique window through which to view these turbulent years for both the Australian Church and wider Australian society. Recent years have witnessed a series of new books about Mannix, each covering his career from a different perspectives, and all shedding further light on aspects of the controversial prelate's life and involvement in the rough and tumble world of ecclesiastical and secular Australian and Irish politics. This book, however, brings something largely new and welcome to the almost unrivalled number of biographies penned on the controversial Archbishop, a meticulously documented anthology of primary source material. Co-authored by an eminently well-informed trio of scholars--one of whom had already penned two biographies of Mannix--this 14 chapter book is in part a biography that re-treads familiar historical territory, but in a more concise and accessible way than many earlier exemplars. To this end, the authors have utilized many explanatory footnotes giving biographical additional details about key figures who might otherwise be unknown to readers. Such details are particular helpful, especially in Chapter 3 where the authors give a multifaceted account of Mannix's infamous mid-sea arrest aboard the Baltic for fear his landing in Ireland would lead to further political unrest, drawing not only on Mannix's own accounts, but equally on the reflections of the sailors of HMS Wivern and British authorities. More important, however, than this highly accessible biographical material, is the fact that this book provides unrivalled source documentation from both Mannix's own writings and speeches, but also those of his many supporters and critics from across the globe ranging from extracts of correspondence with admirers like the Irish Republican and later President Eamon de Valera to the thinly-veiled literary attack of the celebrated Australian communist writer Frank Hardy in his controversial novel Power Without Glory and the sidesplitting dialogue between Mannix and the Pope from Barry Oakley's play The Feet of Daniel Mannix. Moreover, unlike other recent works, which have focused on specific aspects of Mannix's long career, this work brings together documentation from events spanning the entirety of Mannix's life from his time as the disciplinarian rector of Maynooth Seminary, described by one former student as 'the Westpoint of Ireland, the military academy in which were trained the officers for the army of Christ' (p. 206), through the fiery anti-conscription campaign of the First World War in which he notoriously labelled the war 'just an ordinary trade war' (p. 13), right up until his death just shy of a hundred years in 1963 by which time Mannix had outlived almost all of his historical rivals. However, rather than painting a portrait of a triumphant figure, this documentation further shows how over the course of his life Mannix had consistently risen above past differences, perhaps most notably in his reconciliation with an ageing Billy Hughes in 1937 following the tragic death of the latter's daughter and in his ongoing relationship with Arthur Calwell even after they found themselves on different sides over the Movement controversies of the mid-1950s. …" @default.
