Summary "An Address Given in to the Late King James by the Titular Archbishop of Dublin" is a historical account likely written in the late 17th century. This text presents a significant communication to King James II from the Archbishop and his fellow Catholic clergy, discussing the intentions to restore Catholicism in Ireland and address the existing Protestant laws that were seen as obstacles to this goal. The book outlines the Archbishop's argument for the re-establishment of Catholicism in Ireland, highlighting the perceived obligations of King James to his Catholic subjects. The text includes their appeal against the Penal Laws and other statutes that restricted Catholic practices, illustrating the authority of the Church and the necessity of their licensed clerics for the spiritual guidance of their followers. It reflects on the political dynamics of the time, emphasizing loyalty to the crown amidst a backdrop of religious tension between Catholics and Protestants, and assesses the implications of King James' rule for both religious groups as he navigated the complexities of governance in a divided society.
