		Patrick Pearse graduated with a law degree from the King’s Inns and in 1901, he started a BA course in modern languages — at the same time as he was called to the Bar in Dublin.

	Patrick Pearse
		Patrick (Pádraic, Pádraig) Pearse (Mac Piarais), teacher, writer, and Irish nationalist leader, was born Patrick Henry Pearse in 1879 in Dublin, his father being a Cornish artisan/stonemason.
		In 1908, Pearse founded his own school, St Enda's, through which he did much to preserve native culture, encouraging the use of the language and participation in traditional Irish sports, and taking the boys on trips to the west of Ireland.
		In her biography of Pearse, Ruth Dudley Edwards[?] claimed that Pearse had latent homosexual tendencies, though she did not suggest, nor did she rule out the possibility, that he was a sexually active homosexual.

		Patrick Henry Pearse (known to Irish nationalists as Pádraig Pearse; Irish: Pádraig Anraí Mac Piarais; 10 November 1879 – 3 May 1916) was a teacher, barrister, poet, writer, nationalist and political activist who was one of the leaders of the Easter Rising in 1916.
		Pearse, given his speaking and writing skills, was chosen by the leading IRB man Thomas Clarke to be the spokesman for the Rising that he hoped would soon occur.
		Pearse and his colleagues also discussed proclaiming Prince Joachim (the Kaiser's youngest son) as an Irish constitutional monarch, if the Central Powers won the First World War, which suggests that their ideas for the political future of the country had to await the war's outcome.

		It was in the voice of Patrick Pearse spoken on Easter Monday, 1916 from the steps of the Dublin General Post Office, that Ireland summoned her young men to her banner and Pearse proclaimed the Irish Republic.
		Pearse at thirty-seven years of age was the newly declared President of that imagined State and Commander-in-Chief of the five hundred-odd men, women and schoolboys who in the following seven days took on the might of the British Empire.
		I argue that Patrick Pearse's entire life was devoted to separating two entities, that is, to prising apart a dominating masculine England from a feminine and subordinate Ireland.

	A Critique of Patrick Pearse: Irish Rebel" (Site not responding. Last check: )

		The prevailing British feeling about Pearse and his revolutionary counterparts is not explored in the author's discussion of Pearse and the Easter rebellion of 1916.
