Leopold von Ranke on Irish history and the Irish nation

Abstract	Every historian has heard of Leopold von Ranke (1795–1886) who was one of the most influential historians of the nineteenth century. He made important contributions to the emergence of modern history as a discipline and he has been called the father of “scientific” history. Due to him, methodological principles of archival research and source criticism became standardised and commonplace in academic institutions and he is generally credited with the professionalisation of the historian’s craft. The following article will analyse Ranke’s approach to writing history and his approach to contemporary Romantic and nationalistic ideas. First, I will introduce the reader to the main historical understanding of Ranke and his life before approaching his writing and understanding of Irish history. Several main countries such as Germany, France, Britain and Italy have been assessed before; however, Ranke’s connection to Ireland, both academically and personally, is explored to a much lesser extent. Therefore, I will assess in detail his writing and understanding of Irish history.
