Visible Divinity: Money and Irish Catholicism, 1850-1921
Social science and humanities academics have long been captivated by the relationship between religious faith and economic behaviour. While this project acknowledges the work of such luminaries as Karl Marx and Viviana Zelizer, it also concerns the relationship between religious practice and economic thought, and is predicated on the idea that primary economic exchange in a religious setting has never been an intellectual one, but rather a physical one. The project suggests the process of church fundraising was/is a significant economic phenomenon, worthy of examination and conceptualisation in its own right. Also, it can tell us a great deal about the interaction of religion and economics in the lives of ordinary people. Therefore, the project’s form is an investigation of the Irish Catholic Church’s finance over a period of its increasing influence over the country’s population – the time of the Irish “devotional revolution” up to the point that the church became the dominant denomination in a newly independent country. Although predominantly historical, the research also hopes to provide insights into individual economic behaviour in ways that mainstream economics has tended to neglect.
