Discovering Bridget Manningham’s Rivall Friendship
AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS
2025
sidottu
This collection of essays represents the very first effort to assess the importance of Bridget Manningham’s Rivall Friendship, a seventeenth-century manuscript that concerns the English Civil War, surviving in only one copy at the Newberry Library, Chicago, IL. Bridget Manningham is introduced as the granddaughter of the sixteenth-century diarist John Manningham and as the older sister of Thomas Manningham who was Bishop of Chichester in the early eighteenth century. These essays offer definitive analyses of such early modern issues as the intersection of gender and class, linguistic features of early modern syntax, rhetorical defenses of the royalist position, theories of early modern friendship, plot construction and narrative strategies, and the transition from the romance to the novel.

In March 1895, twenty-six-year-old Bridget Cleary fell ill, then disappeared from her cottage in rural Tipperary. Even before she vanished, rumors circulated that she was a changeling, left behind by fairies or evil spirits. The "real" Bridget would return on a white horse. Then her badly burned body was discovered in a shallow grave, and her husband, father, aunt, and four cousins were arrested and charged with her murder." "This is an exquisite if disturbing book that takes no sides when it comes to judging whether a belief in the supernatural is foolish and dangerous superstition or a reality of life at the end of the nineteenth century, and which illustrates how the politicization of a crime is hardly a new product of the twentieth.

'Bridget' was the Irish immigrant service girl who worked in American homes from the second half of the nineteenth century into the early years of the twentieth. She is widely known as a pop culture cliche: the young girl who wreaks havoc in middle-class American homes. Now, in the first book-length treatment of the topic, Margaret Lynch-Brennan tells the real story of such Irish domestic servants, often in their own words, providing a richly detailed portrait of their lives and experiences. Many of the socially marginalized Irish immigrant women of this era made their living in domestic service. In contrast to immigrant men, who might have lived in a community with their fellow Irish, these women lived and worked in close contact with American families. Lynch-Brennan reveals the essential role this unique relationship played in shaping the place of the Irish in America today. Such women were instrumental in making the Irish presence more acceptable to earlier established American groups. At the same time, it was through the experience of domestic service that many Irish were acculturated, as these women absorbed the middle-class values of their patrons and passed them on to their own children. Drawing on personal correspondence and other primary sources, Lynch-Brennan gives voice to these young Irish women and celebrates their untold contribution to the ethnic history of the United States. In addition, recognizing the interest of scholars in contemporary domestic services, she devotes one chapter to comparing 'Bridget's' experience to that of other ethnic women over time in domestic service in America.
