  History Ireland Feature - Charlemont on the Grand Tour   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
Charlemont's travels were an early example of an interest in Turkish affairs and customs (having one's portrait painted in Turkish garb became extremely fashionable in the late eighteenth century) and could be said to prefigure the nineteenth-century alliance between the British and Ottoman empires.
Charlemont's bemused contempt for the Catholic religious ceremonies he encountered in Italy and his speculations on the chastity of Orthodox nuns mark him as a man of his time and class.
Charlemont showed little interest in the antiquities of the country in which he spent much of his life, Ireland, or in the manners and customs of the majority of its inhabitants, to whom he referred as 'slaves' or, when in a more forgiving mood, 'our semi-barbarians'.
