title = "Louis XIV, James II and Ireland",
abstract = "This chapter focuses on the way in which Louis's involvement with his cousin's ill-fated Irish expedition was presented in Ireland and England by those with whom he was in conflict, and how his intervention was perceived. The arrival of French troops in support of James II in Ireland was portrayed as a French 'invasion'. As further proof that Louis was the puppet-master in Ireland, and James his puppet, some writers played up the role of Tyrconnell in the Jacobite administration, and questioned his true motives, seeing him as having acted throughout as a secret agent of the French. The interpretation in the English and Scottish press of Louis's intervention in Ireland was thus of a piece with the Dutch and English propaganda that depicted him as a would-be 'universal monarch' and a Catholic bigot determined rid Europe of Protestant heresy.",
