	John Banim - LoveToKnow 1911
		JOHN BANIM (1798-1842), Irish novelist, sometimes called the "Scott of Ireland," was born at Kilkenny on the 3rd of April 17 98.
		Michael Banim had acquired a considerable fortune which he lost in 1840 through the bankruptcy of a firm with which he had business relations.
		The true place of the Banims in literature is to be estimated from the merits of the O'Hara Tales; their later works, though of considerable ability, are sometimes prolix and are marked by too evident an imitation of the Waverley Novels.

	John & Michael Banim
		John's literary efforts began very early; at ten he wrote some verses and a tale of considerable length.
		Unlike John, however, he was a man of action, and threw himself earnestly into various movements for the uplifting of his countrymen, educationally and economically.
		The latter criticism is unfortunately justified; John admitted and regretted it, and Michael acted on it by preventing one of the stories, "The Nowlans", from being reprinted.

		Banim's nature was exceedingly impetuous, and at the end of a year since he had first seen and loved Anne D----, he resolved to wait upon her father--who resided in a neighbouring county--and demand her hand.
		Banim by some means discovered the day and hour of her departure, and as the chaise bearing her away passed his father's door, he rushed, bareheaded, before the vehicle, from the window of which Anne leaned, pale, terrified, and sobbing bitterly.
		Banim's malady soon proved beyond the skill of any physician, and his affairs became so embarrassed that public meetings took place, and subscriptions were entered into in England and France, as well as in his own country, to relieve his necessities.

		JOHN AND MICHAEL BANIM (1798-1846) (1796-1874) Of the writers who have won esteem by telling the pathetic stories of their country's people, the names of John and Michael Banim are ranked among the Irish Gael not lower than that of Sir Walter Scott among the British Gael.
		The Banim family was one of those which belonged to the class of "middlemen," people so designated in Ireland who were neither rich nor poor, but in the fortunate mean.
		Michael and John, it was well known, had worked lovingly together, and Michael claimed a part in thirteen of the tales, without excluding his brother from joint authorship.

	The Irish Novel Criticism and Essays
		The Banim brothers were sons of a middle class farmer and shopkeeper, and they intimately knew and understood the difficulties faced by the Irish peasantry.
		Louis Lachal argues that in the novels that formed the Tales by the O'Hara Family series, the Banims portray the negative characteristics of the peasantry—including ignorance, poverty, and cruelty—as the result of the persecution, both religious and political, that this class had suffered for so many years at the hands of English Protestants.
		Like the Banims, Gerald Griffin was born into a middle-class Catholic family, his father being a brewer in Limerick.
