Résumé : | This article surveys the views expressed in Irish nationalist and Catholic newspapers (mainly in editorials, comment pieces and letters to the editor) on the Dreyfus affair in France during the climactic phases of the affair in 1898-99. It finds that, partly in reaction to British support for the Dreyfusard cause, much of the Irish nationalist press refused to take a Dreyfusard stance. In most cases this Anti-Dreyfusard position was Catholic-nationalist rather than anti-Semitic in content. The article also instances newspapers which espoused a kind of "Catholic Dreyfusardism" that owed little to mainstream European liberal or anti-clerical traditions |
