‘Orange Young Ireland’

‘Orange Young Ireland’, a joking label applied to a group of authors, including Butt and Ferguson, associated with the Dublin University Magazine (established 1833) who combined an interest in Irish culture and antiquities, and frequent frustration with the mismanagement of Irish affairs from London, with a strong commitment to the established church and the defence of the Act of Union.
