  • "The Wanderings of Oisin"
    W. B. Yeats William Butler Yeats was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1923. Working together with Lady Gregory and John M. Synge, he was the director of Ireland's National Theatre Society, better known as the Abbey Theatre company. His first rather patriotic plays T h e "The Wanderings of Oisin" Countess Cathleen (1892) and Cathleen ní Houlihan (1902) were mainly written during the time of his long liaison with Maud Gonne who strengthened his enthusiasm for Irish It was W. B. Yeats who in his work drew heavily on old Irish historical and folk materials and thus contributed n a t i o n a l i s m . notably to what came to be called the Celtic Revival. "The Wanderings of Oisin" is a mystical narrative poem about Oisin, the poet of the Celtic Fionn cycle who spends 300 years in the pre-Christian Otherworld. After returning from the Otherworld he has a passionate conversation with St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, in which he is full of praise for the pagan values he has experienced there. – W.

  • What's in an Irish Name?
    What’s in an Irish Name? A Study of the Personal Naming Systems of Irish and Irish English Liam Mac Mathúna (St Patrick’s College, Dublin) 1. Introduction: The Irish Patronymic System Prior to 1600 While the history of Irish personal names displays general similarities with the fortunes of the country’s place-names, it also shows significant differences, as both first and second names are closely bound up with the ego-identity of those to whom they belong.1 This paper examines how the indigenous system of Gaelic personal names was moulded to the requirements of a foreign, English-medium administration, and how the early twentieth-century cultural revival prompted the re-establish- ment of an Irish-language nomenclature. It sets out the native Irish system of surnames, which distinguishes formally between male and female (married/ un- married) and shows how this was assimilated into the very different English sys- tem, where one surname is applied to all. A distinguishing feature of nomen- clature in Ireland today is the phenomenon of dual Irish and English language naming, with most individuals accepting that there are two versions of their na- me. The uneasy relationship between these two versions, on the fault-line of lan- guage contact, as it were, is also examined. Thus, the paper demonstrates that personal names, at once the pivots of individual and group identity, are a rich source of continuing insight into the dynamics of Irish and English language contact in Ireland. Irish personal names have a long history. Many of the earliest records of Irish are preserved on standing stones incised with the strokes and dots of ogam, a 1 See the paper given at the Celtic Englishes II Colloquium on the theme of “Toponyms across Languages: The Role of Toponymy in Ireland’s Language Shifts” (Mac Mathúna 2000).

  • A MAD GOD's DREAM by Donald Smith
    1 A MAD GOD’S DREAM By Donald Smith Late afternoon in Edinburgh, the streets ablaze with July sunshine. It was impossible to go straight from a chill rehearsal studio to the shades of Haymarket Station, so Ciaran turned upwards round the Castle Rock. From Johnston Terrace he climbed the precipitous stairs to Castlehill and was rewarded by a panorama of the city undulating towards the Pentland Hills. What had Hugh MacDiarmid called this town - ‘a mad god’s dream’. If so the god had been drunk on nectar, on sun-drenched pleasures, on golden IPA. There was something lofty in Ciaran’s perspective. I’d better descend, he thought, before I’m tumbled. He started down the Royal Mile, sweat runnelling over his brow. This route reminded him of the day, less than a year before when he, Peter, and Madge Drummond, had met at the Scottish Storytelling Centre. Nothing had felt the same since; urged on by Madge, Peter - the Royal Lyceum Theatre’s Director - had upgraded Ciaran’s project to a full company production. Later came the mind-blowing news that it was intended for the Edinburgh International Festival - mainstage! Was that only ten months ago? For the young writer it was a revolution comparable in its effect to Joyce’s Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man or MacDiarmid’s Drunk Man Looks at a Thistle’. Which said something about Ireland and Scotland, though exactly what eluded Ciaran at that euphoric moment. This young artist had a full-scale production before he even had a fully written script.

  • Robert Graves the White Goddess
    ROBERT GRAVES THE WHITE GODDESS IN DEDICATION All saints revile her, and all sober men Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean— In scorn of which I sailed to find her In distant regions likeliest to hold her Whom I desired above all things to know, Sister of the mirage and echo. It was a virtue not to stay, To go my headstrong and heroic way Seeking her out at the volcano's head, Among pack ice, or where the track had faded Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers: Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's, Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips, With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips. Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir Will celebrate the Mountain Mother, And every song-bird shout awhile for her; But I am gifted, even in November Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense Of her nakedly worn magnificence I forget cruelty and past betrayal, Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall. FOREWORD am grateful to Philip and Sally Graves, Christopher Hawkes, John Knittel, Valentin Iremonger, Max Mallowan, E. M. Parr, Joshua IPodro, Lynette Roberts, Martin Seymour-Smith, John Heath-Stubbs and numerous correspondents, who have supplied me with source- material for this book: and to Kenneth Gay who has helped me to arrange it. Yet since the first edition appeared in 1946, no expert in ancient Irish or Welsh has offered me the least help in refining my argument, or pointed out any of the errors which are bound to have crept into the text, or even acknowledged my letters.

  • 1 FIONN in HELL an Anonymous Early Sixteenth-Century Poem In
    1 FIONN IN HELL An anonymous early sixteenth-century poem in Scots describes Fionn mac Cumhaill as having ‘dang þe devill and gart him ʒowle’ (‘struck the Devil and made him yowl’) (Fisher 1999: 36). The poem is known as ‘The Crying of Ane Play.’ Scots literature of the late medieval and early modern period often shows a garbled knowledge of Highland culture; commonly portraying Gaels and their language and traditions negatively. Martin MacGregor notes that Lowland satire of Highlanders can, ‘presuppose some degree of understanding of the language, and of attendant cultural and social practices’ (MacGregor 2007: 32). Indeed Fionn and his band of warriors, 1 collectively Na Fiantaichean or An Fhèinn0F in modern Scottish Gaelic, are mentioned a number of times in Lowland literature of the period (MacKillop 1986: 72-74). This article seeks to investigate the fate of Fionn’s soul in late medieval and early modern Gaelic literature, both Irish and Scottish. This is done only in part to consider if the yowling Devil and his encounter with Fionn from the ‘The Crying of Ane Play’ might represent something recognizable from contemporaneous Gaelic literature. Our yowling Devil acts here as something of a prompt for an investigation of Fionn’s potential salvation or damnation in a number of sixteenth-century, and earlier, Gaelic ballads. The monumental late twelfth- or early thirteenth-century (Dooley 2004) text Acallam na 2 Senórach (‘The Colloquy of the Ancients’) will also be considered here.1F Firstly, the Scots poem must be briefly investigated in order to determine its understanding of Gaelic conventions.

  • Hunting for the Genetic Legacy of Brian Boru in Irish Historical Sources
    Hunting for the genetic legacy of Brian Boru in Irish historical sources. Catherine Swift, Mary Immaculate College Having won an English chariot from an Italian gentleman at play, my uncle had our arms painted on the panels in a more splendid way than ever (surmounted, as we were descended from the ancient kings) with an Irish crown of the most splendid size and gilding. I had this crown in lieu of a coronet engraved on a large amethyst signet-ring worn on my forefinger; and I don’t mind confessing that I used to say the jewel had been in my family for several thousand years, having originally belonged to my direct ancestor, his late Majesty, King Brian Boru or Barry. I warrant the legends of the Heralds’ College are not more authentic than mine was.1 In his travels in Ireland in 1842, Thackeray followed the course of the Shannon up river from Tarbert to Limerick and then travelled through Clare to Galway, visiting “a decent little library” in Ennis where he bought “six volumes of works strictly Irish”. As he describes them subsequently, “these yellow-covered books are prepared for the people chiefly” and included tales of a highwayman entitled Adventures of Mr James Freeny, legends in Hibernian Tales2 and “the lamentable tragedy of the ‘Battle of Aughrim’ writ in the most doleful Anglo-Irish verse.” He does not refer explicitly in his Irish Sketchbook to Brian Boru but it seems fair to assume that his description of Barry Lyndon’s ancestry was based, at least in part, on stories he had heard when travelling through Thomond or, perhaps, even elsewhere in Ireland.

  • Hi1012 Medieval Ireland A
    HI 1202 IRELAND c.1000-1250: BRIAN BORU TO THE ENGLISH INVASION Course Organiser: Seán Duffy ([email protected]) Duration: Michaelmas Term (Sept-Dec) Contact hours: 2 hrs per week plus tutorials Weighting: 10 ECTS 1. COURSE DESCRIPTION This module begins with the iconic battle of Clontarf in 1014 at which the high-king, Brian Boru, fought enemies that included the descendants of the Viking founders of Dublin. Study is made of the after-effects of the Vikings on Irish society, before moving to examine the causes and implications of the English invasion of the late twelfth century, especially the ensuing upheaval in Irish political life and Anglo-Irish relations. The module also offers a critical evaluation of the changing role of the church in medieval Irish life, and attention is paid to the patterns of human settlement and the physical imprint of man on the landscape: where and how did people live, and what survives today in terms of archaeology and architecture? 2. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Aim: The course aims to provide students with a basic understanding of political, social and ecclesiastical developments in Ireland during the High and Later Middle Ages, by introducing essential knowledge and key concepts. Learning outcomes: By the end of the course, students should be able to • outline chronologically the key developments in Ireland c.1000-c.1250 • offer explanations for the key developments in the period • evaluate the significance of those key developments and appreciate their impact on the subsequent course of Irish history • search for,
