| Résumé : | This article contributes to the mapping of the 'pathways of transmission' of the Northern Ireland 'problem' by drawing attention to three problematic aspects of John Whyte's appraisal of the pre-1969 historiography, in Interpreting Northern Ireland (1990): that the work of T. W. Moody and J. C. Beckett and their fellow historians before 1969 was 'lightweight' and 'bland'; that they effectively ignored Ulster's history of sectarian rioting until Andrew Boyd's book Holy war in Belfast (1969) brought it 'back into the consciousness of historians'; and that the 'external conflict paradigm' was 'dominant' in their discourse. These are examined in sections II-V. The content of the pre-1969 historiography is examined in section I and a preliminary reappraisal is offered in section VI |
