Résumé : | In 19th-century Ireland, Protestant societies disrupted the traditional demarcations of religious affiliations by promoting self-determination and individual discernment. This paper wishes to examine, in light of Ferdinand Tönnies’s concepts and the case of the “Dingle Colony”, how the increasing amount of conversions led to the creation of new communities of converts identified as “colonies” and a Catholic counteraction which crystallised the intensifying opposition to the British state and the catholicisation of Irish nationalism. |
