Abstract
Irish Catholic Political Thought in the seventeenth century found a masterly expression in
the writings of Kilkenny-born David Rothe. The theoretico-practical dilemma he faced arose from the need to reconcile the, as yet theoretical, notion of an Irish Nation with a
de facto Protestant government of totalitarian tendencies in a predominantly Catholic
Ireland. His solution to the question of Church-State relations involved a self-critical
interpretation of Irish history, a powerful protest against blatant injustice, and a modification of the model of toleration recently granted to the Huguenots in France (Editor)
