在大饥荒结束和与英国联盟结束之间，爱尔兰天主教会几乎完全由普通民众资助。本文探讨了神职人员与俗人之间的财务关系，重点关注与死亡相关的付款。在此过程中，它提出了三个要点。首先，它表明以前关于平信徒被迫向教会捐钱的观念过于简单化，并且否认了捐钱的许多社会阶层的人们的复杂机构。其次，它认为，利用普通人的金融交易为历史学家提供了一种急需的方法来恢复档案中没有记载的生活。第三，它提出，特别是通过金钱来调解信仰，必须添加到不断增长的“物质宗教”工作中。
Between the end of the Great Famine and the end of the union with Britain, the Irish Catholic Church was almost exclusively funded by ordinary lay people. This article examines the financial relationship between clergy and laity, focusing on payments related to death. In doing so, it argues three main points. First, it suggests that previous conceptions of lay people coerced into giving their money to the church are too simplistic and deny the complex agency of the people of many social classes who gave the money. Second, it argues that using the financial transactions of ordinary people gives historians a much-needed methodology for recovering lives about which the archives are otherwise silent. Third, it posits that the mediation of faith through money, specifically, must be added to the growing body of work on “material religion.”
