Reception In reviewing the first edition in The Linen Hall Review in 1986, John C. Greene and Michelle O'Riordan argued that the journal came at a time when modern research was "leading to the history of eighteenth-century Ireland being rewritten on almost every front"."Literary History", John C. Greene & Michelle O'Riordan, The Linen Hall Review, Vol. 3, No. 4 (Winter, 1986), pp. 36-37. Toby Barnard, in the Irish University Review also noted the timeliness of publication, seeing it as "a fresh sign of rising interest in that century"."Books Reviews", Toby Barnard, Irish University Review, Vol. 17, No. 2 (Autumn, 1987), pp. 325-326. A.P.W. Malcomson, in Irish Historical Studies, described Eighteenth-Century Ireland as "filling an obvious void"."Reviews and short notices", A.P.W. Malcomson, Irish Historical Studies, Vol. 25, No. 100 (Nov., 1987), pp. 447-448.
Later volumes Reviewing volumes four and five in Irish Historical Studies, Thomas Bartlett described Eighteenth-Century Ireland as "highly regarded" but noted its uneven quality and persistent problems with proof reading."Reviews and short notices", Thomas Bartlett, Irish Historical Studies, Vol. 28, No. 109 (May, 1992), pp. 101-102.
