Reception

In reviewing the first edition in The Linen Hall Review in 1986, John C. Greene and Michelle O'Riordan argued that the journal came at a time when modern research was "leading to the history of eighteenth-century Ireland being rewritten on almost every front".[5] Toby Barnard, in the Irish University Review also noted the timeliness of publication, seeing it as "a fresh sign of rising interest in that century".[6] A.P.W. Malcomson, in Irish Historical Studies, described Eighteenth-Century Ireland as "filling an obvious void".[7]

Later volumes

Reviewing volumes four and five in Irish Historical Studies, Thomas Bartlett described Eighteenth-Century Ireland as "highly regarded" but noted its uneven quality and persistent problems with proof reading.[8] The journal was also reviewed in Irish language publications such as Comhar.[9]
