Anocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil, Le gean ar Ghaeil, chun báis nó saoil, Le gunna-scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar, Seo libh canaig’ amhrán na bhFiann A SOLDIER’S SONG Soldiers are we, whose lives are pledged to Ireland, Some have come from a land beyond the wave, Sworn to be free, no more our ancient sireland, Shall shelter the despot or the slave. Tonight we man the "bearna bhaoil", In Erin’s cause, come woe or weal, ’Mid cannons’ roar and rifles’ peal, We’ll chant a soldier’s song. Hymne national irlandais depuis 1926 Paroles anglaises de Peadar Kearney, gaéliques de Liam Ó Rinn Musique de Patrick Heeney Olivier GABIN – Les Chants de Lutte et d’Espoir – Tome 3 : Soldats, Nous Sommes viii UNE CHANSON DE SOLDATS Nous sommes les combattants de l’Irlande Dont les vies sont dédiées à Eirinn Certains sont venus D’un pays au-delà des vagues Ayant juré d’être libre Plus jamais notre ancienne seigneurie N’hébergera le despote ou l’esclave Ce soir nous occupons le cap du danger Pour l’amour du Gael, vers la mort ou la vie Au milieu du grondement des canons, et des coups de fusil Nous chanterons une chanson de soldats Traduction française de l’auteur Olivier GABIN – Les Chants de Lutte et d’Espoir – Tome 3 : Soldats, Nous Sommes ix 12 juillet 1921 : la guerre d’indépendance est finie. À Dublin, après deux ans et demie de combat, Fiona O’Brennell voit enfin ses longues années de militance et ses longs mois de combat enfin aboutir. Avec ses quatre amies des Donegal Special Ran- gers, pourtant, elles restent l’arme au pied, les négociations pour un traité visant à rendre son indépendance de l’Irlande n’étant pas, a priori, faciles à conclure. Mais c’est sans parler de l’implication de leur commandant, Michael Collins, qui acquiert une stature de chef d’état avec les négociations pour le traité. Mais le spectre de la discorde et, plus grave, de la sédition plane au-dessus de la paix retrouvée avec la trêve. Jusqu’à ce que les antagonismes politiques aboutissent à la guerre civile, dans laquelle les Donegal Special Rangers devront choisir leur camp, soit la fidélité à la République et la sédition, soit la fidélité au peuple et la légalité. Un nouveau combat attend Fiona et ses amies, où l’indépendance de l’Irlande est en jeu. Dernier volet de la série Les Chants de Lutte et d’Espoir, ce récit personnel montre, de l’intérieur, un aspect aussi tragique que peu connu à l’étranger de l’histoire récente de l’Irlande. Les combattants de l’indépendance vont se transformer douloureusement en politiciens, la légalité et l’État irlandais indépendant continuant à être bâti dans le sang, mais les armes vont finir par céder la place au débat d’idées. C’est à travers le regard de Fiona O’Brennell que nous allons voir la naissance dans la douleur d’un état-nation. Une vision de l’intérieur d’une période essentielle de l’histoire irlandaise, avec des questions soulevées qui sont toujours d’actualité. Olivier GABIN – Les Chants de Lutte et d’Espoir – Tome 3 : Soldats, Nous Sommes x Olivier GABIN – Les Chants de Lutte et d’Espoir – Tome 3 : Soldats, Nous Sommes – 1 – j’ai lu les nouvellles aujourd’hui... e n’est pas vraiment poli de parler de soi quand vous commencez le récit C d’une autre personne, surtout de votre famille, mais la contribution de ma grand-mère à ma réussite universitaire et professionnelle mérite que j’en explique le procédé. En accord avec grand-mère Fiona, j’ai recueilli ses récits sur les guerres qui ont marqué l’indépendance de notre pays par ordre chronologique, lors d’entretiens informels que j’ai eu avec elle. En ce début d’automne 1997, je comptais prendre deux semaines de vacances pour mettre mes notes au propre toute seule avant de continuer à recueillir le récit de ma grand-mère sur ces années tragiques, qui ont aussi été celles de sa jeunesse. J’avais beaucoup de recoupements et de vérifications à faire avec ce qu’elle m’avait déjà communiqué, surtout pour la période de la guerre d’indépendance. Et, d’un point de vue personnel, j’allais avoir une année universitaire 1997/1998 des plus chargées. J’avais pu m’inscrire, avec les forces de défenses où je suis officier de marine, à une formation d’officier de pont en six mois, qui devait me permettre d’avoir un poste sur la passerelle d’un de nos navires avec une qualification ad hoc. J’avais choisi la formation pour être officier mécanicien, et je devais apprendre tout ce qui était moteurs diesel marins, le fabricant finlandais Wärtsilä était retenu pour la nouvelle classe de patrouilleurs de haute mer qui devait entrer en service d’ici deux ans, la classe Roisin. Le Dáil avait voté les fonds, et la commande pour ces navires devait être passée d’ici la fin de l’année 1997. Le Service Naval comptait former un mélange de marins débutants et expérimen- tés pour former l’équipage du navire, et j’ai été mise de la partie. Après les archives militaires et le renseignement naval, j’allais passer à la phase de ma carrière que je voulais atteindre, avoir un poste en mer. A priori, un doctorat d’histoire n’a rien à voir avec un poste d’officier mécanicien, mais il ne faut jurer de rien. L’archéologie navale, ça existe, et ce ne sont pas les épaves historiquement importantes à explo- rer qui manquent autour de l’Irlande. À commencer par celles des navires qui ont composé l’Invincible Armada espagnole du xvie siècle. Avant ma pause de l’été, je suis repassée voir ma grand-mère pour une introduc- tion à la partie finale de ses souvenirs sur l’indépendance de notre pays, avec les périodes les plus controversées de notre histoire : la trêve, les premiers mois du traité anglo-irlandais, et la guerre civile. Comme à notre habitude, j’ai pris un week-end complet depuis Cork pour m’entretenir avec ma grand-mère. Elle était toujours ravie 1 2 de me voir, j’étais la plus jeune de ses petits-enfants, et mon intérêt pour l’Histoire la ravissait. En ce samedi matin de fin d’été, le premier week-end de septembre 1997, j’ai repris le fil du récit là où nous l’avions laissé : avec le début de la trêve, le 11 juillet 1921 : « Le magasin qui me vend mon café italien préféré va déménager cet été, ils vont s’installer du côté de Lord Edward Street. C’est trop difficile pour leurs clients de se garer à proximité de Wellington Quay à ce qu’il paraît. — C’est la maison Cambasselli ? — Oui, c’est bien eux, à Dublin depuis 1909, ma mère achetait chez eux systéma- tiquement, et j’ai suivi. Le café de qualité, tu n’en trouvais que dans des boutiques spécialisées jusque dans les années 1970. Même le rayon épicerie fine de Clery’s ne s’y est mis qu’après l’Urgence 1. Naturellement, il y avait le tout venant en épicerie, mais quand tu as goûté au café italien, ce n’est plus la peine de vouloir autre chose. Sauf à en acheter dans une épicerie orientale, j’ai vu une nouvelle adresse du côté de Croke Park, un petit magasin sur Fitzroy avenue, que je n’avais jamais vu avant. Je ne saurais pas te dire de quel orient les produits viennent, je n’ai vu cela qu’en coup de vent en allant attraper le train vers Connolly Station à la gare de Druncondra, après un match de camogie il y a deux mois. — Si tu veux, nous irons y faire un tour, j’ai un collègue d’origine tunisienne qui m’a fait découvrir les pâtisseries orientales, il en apporte au bureau régulièrement. Et ta mère, avant l’ouverture de la maison Cambasselli, elle faisait comment pour avoir du bon café ? — Vente par correspondance, qu’elle n’a pas arrêtée non plus après l’ouverture de la maison Cambasselli. Un des amis de ton père, qui était en Égypte dans le même régiment que lui, a ouvert une épicerie fine spécialisée dans les produits orientaux à Southampton après son temps d’armée. C’est la maison Fitzgerald and family, ils vendent toujours aujourd’hui. En plus, les prix sont toujours raisonnables. Ils ne les indiquent pas en livres irlandaises sur leur catalogue, je dois faire la conversion pour avoir les prix. Par contre, pour les paiements par ce chèque en plastique avec des chiffres dessus, que ton oncle Stuart m’a conseillé il y a de cela un bout de temps, c’est extrêmement pratique pour faire tes achats.

Nil File No. S.2024 Form B.S.M.2 STATEMENT OF MICHEÁL Ó LAOGHAIBE, Shandrum, 51 Griffith Avenue, Dublin. I became associated with Sinn Féin at its inception in October, 1905, in Sligo. I went to Liverpool in 1907. Then I became directly associated with the physical force movement, the I.R.B., in February 1908. The Centre was Liverpool and the man in charge at that time was Dan McCarthy. I attended all the meetings. The membership was roughly about 20, that is, taking in Bootle and Liverpool combined. Included in this number were a few men who had been associated with the '67 movement. One man I would like to mention in particular was the late James Murphy who marched on Chester Castle in the Rising of '67. We had also visiting us there during that period O'Donovan Rossa, O'Meara and Condon. The activities at that time were mainly concerned with the holding of meetings. One incident that I would like to record was when, on the death of King Edward VII, the United Irish League flew the Irish flag at half-mast.

  • The Anglo-Irish Truce of 11 July 1921 Which Brought a Formal Conclusion to the Irish War of Independence
    University of Limerick Ollscoil Luimnigh The Anglo - Irish Truce: An analysis of its immediate military impact, 8 - 11 July 1921 Pádraig Óg Ó Ruairc Ph.D. 2014 University of Limerick Ollscoil Luimnigh The Anglo - Irish Truce: An analysis of its immediate military impact, 8 - 11 July 1921 Pádraig Óg Ó Ruairc Thesis presented to the University of Limerick for the award of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Dr. Ruán O’Donnell Submitted to the University of Limerick, September 2014 Abstract This thesis is a study of the dynamics of the Anglo-Irish Truce of 11 July 1921 which brought a formal conclusion to the Irish War of Independence. Although this work explores the origins, character and significance of the agreement, its primary focus is an analysis of the effect the announcement the impending armistice had on the use of lethal violence in the final days and hours of the conflict. It uses empirical data to interrogate existing hypotheses, and test popular theories surrounding the cessation of the Irish Republican Army’s military campaign. Furthermore, it examines in detail the hitherto neglected subject of the reaction and responses of the British forces in Ireland to the agreement. This study also establishes the role the advent of the Truce played in fomenting ‘Belfast’s Bloody Sunday’, one of the most intense outbreaks of sectarian violence in modern Irish history. This thesis addresses key questions which are central to understanding the Truce and the conflict as a whole. The new research presented in this study challenges an established historical narrative. The empirical findings make a useful contribution to the development of a more complex and comprehensive history of the Irish revolutionary period.
