Paddy: Yeah! Lisa: Maybe you can help me! I’m gonna have a Saint Patrick’s Day party at my apartment and I wanted to partie decorate it in an Irish theme. Do you have any ideas? re 1 Paddy: That sounds cool! You could use the traditional symbols of Ireland, that would be good! Lisa: What are the symbols of Ireland? Paddy: There’s quite a few! The harp is the official symbol of Ireland, which shows how important music is in its culture and traditions. It’s actually the only country in the world which has a musical instrument as its symbol. And legend has it it represents the harp of the old kings of Ireland. I’ve actually got a euro coin here. You can see it, it’s on there, it’s on the coins. Lisa: Oh yeah, that’s right! I hadn’t noticed! Paddy: So you could use that! Another symbol you could use is the shamrock, the three-leaf clover. Legend has it that Saint Patrick used that to explain the Holy Trinity, so the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Lisa: Ok, why do I always hear people talking about four-leaf clovers? Paddy: Well, there’s the phrase ‘the luck of the Irish’ because four-leaf clovers are very rare and hard to find so if you find one it’s supposed to be good luck! Lisa: Oh, I get it, ok! I also wanted to hang up an Irish flag and decorate my apartment in like the colours of the flag but what does it look like? Paddy: It’s a vertical tricolor, green, white and orange. The green represents Irish nationalism and republicanism, orange represents the protestant minority and the white represents the friendship and peace between the partie two. e 2 Lisa: Ok, well, then I’ll make sure I get those green, orange and white colours out there and I wanted to play some music. I know music is important for Irish culture but what’s their anthem? Paddy: Well, they’ve actually got two anthems. The official anthem of the Republic of Ireland isA Soldier’s Song, which is an old Irish rebel song, which is about freeing Ireland from slavery from England but sometimes, the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland play together in sporting teams. So when those teams play, they use Ireland’s Call, it’s their anthem. So they play that at rugby matches, cricket matches, hockey matches, certain sports. Lisa: So, I guess rugby is a pretty important sport in Ireland but... Paddy: Yeah, that’s very popular! Lisa: What else do they play? Paddy: The most popular sports are the traditional Irish sports so Gaelic football which is a sort of a mix between football and rugby. There’s hurling which is a bit like lacrosse and then the normal sports, the average sports, football, rugby, cricket... Lisa: Ok! That sounds good! Well people at my party are gonna be hungry. So what kind of traditional Irish dishes can I make? Paddy: Well, potatoes are very popular in Ireland so you could do Irish stew, which is lamb, potatoes, onions and other vegetables. You could get some Irish salmon, Irish salmon is very good, or you could do colcannon, which is mashed potatoes mixed with spinach and kale. Lisa: Ok! What do people drink with that? partie e Paddy: The Irish are well-known for liking their alcohol so you could get some Guinness, which is a type of stout. 3 You could get Irish whiskey! You can mix that with coffee to make an Irish coffee. If people don’t want to drink alcohol, then things like tea are popular! Lisa: Ok! So I’ll go to the store and I’ll get potatoes, Guinness and I’ve got tea at home! 1 Lisa: Would you like to come up to decorate? Paddy: Yeah, definitely! Lisa: And you’ll stay for the party, right? partie e Paddy: Of course! 4 Lisa: Ok, cool! Langues en pratiques ANGLAIS Docs authentiques 2.

Provoking Performance: Challenging the People, the State and the Patriarchy in 1980s Irish Theatre Candidate: Patricia O’Beirne Supervisor: Dr. Ian Walsh School: School of Humanities Discipline: Drama and Theatre Studies Institution: National University of Ireland, Galway Submission Date: August 2018 Summary of Contents: Provoking Performance: Challenging the People, the State and the Patriarchy in 1980s Irish Theatre This thesis offers new perspectives and knowledge to the discipline of Irish theatre studies and historiography and addresses an overlooked period of Irish theatre. It aims to investigate playwriting and theatre-making in the Republic of Ireland during the 1980s. Theatre’s response to failures of the Irish state, to the civil war in Northern Ireland, and to feminist and working-class concerns are explored in this thesis; it is as much an exploration of the 1980s as it is of plays and playwrights during the decade. As identified by a literature review, scholarly and critical attention during the 1980s was drawn towards Northern Ireland where playwrights were engaging directly with the conflict in Northern Ireland. This means that proportionally the work of many playwrights in the Republic remains unexamined and unpublished.

The research which has been conducted has been undertaken largely by quantitative sociologists who seek to ascertain whether structural disadvantages still impact on the life-chances of Catholics in Scotland, with the category Catholic being deployed as a synonym for the Irish in Scotland. However, to date there has been little in the way of qualitative studies examining the actual experiences of people from an Irish Catholic heritage.

    The Power of Song as the Voice of the People Margaret Bennett The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Scotland There are few political speeches that effectively match the power of a song in keeping alive issues of social justice or freedom. In the seventeenth century, Scottish politician Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun proclaimed: ‘If a man were permitted to make all the ballads, he need not care who should make the laws of a nation.’i As in Fletcher’s day, there is no telling if a song of protest will bring about change – nevertheless, it is still the most powerful tool to give voice to those with enough conviction to take a stand. Of equal importance, songs are our most harmonious and peaceful ‘weapons’, effective outside the context of conflict as well as on the picket line or demonstration. It was in the spirit of taking a stand that Festival 500 was ‘purposely conceived and initiated in response to the threat to Newfoundland’s culture by the enforced closure of the cod fishery in 1992.’ As every Newfoundlander knows, ‘[the cod] fishery was not only a mainstay of the province's economy, but the raison d'être for European settlement. In fact, it was the social and economic engine of our society. Its closure was a devastation to our society…’ And in ‘Newfoundland and Labrador, [singing] has historically been an integral part of community life – a way of celebrating, mourning, documenting events, telling the stories.’ In 1968, when I first arrived in Newfoundland as a student, I felt instantly at home to find that singing had a part in every occasion, be it in kitchen, the student common room, or anywhere else.

The Council’s investment in research is based on our belief that the development of sports policy and programmes should be evidence based. Our research programme seeks to understand how the sports sector operates in Ireland and assess its impact and importance to our society. It also raises important policy questions for the future development of sport. As well as providing us with a deeper understanding of the workings of sport the research programme provides us with the tools to measure the impact of sports programmes. We are committed to measuring the value of the investments in sport we make on behalf of the Irish people. I want to thank the Economic and Social Research Institute for their outstanding work on our behalf since 2003.

  • Code-Switching and Empowerment in the Macaronic Irish Lyric
    Code-switching and Empowerment in the Macaronic Irish Lyric Gerald Porter Department of English University of Vaasa Commençant avec la trouvaille de Jonsson (2005) que l’aiguillage d’une langue à l’autre (code- switching) ne nécessairement favorise pas la langue la plus forte socialemente, cette étude examine des chansons poly-macaroniques, ou aiguillantes entre plusieurs langues. Dans telles chansons l’une des langues est habituellement dominante, l’autre socialement subordonnée, et la troisième en quelque cas formalisée ou fixée, associée avec des codes rituels, politiques ou sacrés que surpassent les bords sociales et etniques. Cette espèce de chanson est très favorisée parmi les chansons nationalistes irlandaises, et cette étude suggère que leur fréquence est dialectique, sautante plus de la politique culturelle que d’un besoin à être compris. Keywords: macaronic, Irish rebel song, code-switching, empowerment 1 Code-switching and the macaronic song Macaronic songs, a term used to designate lyrics performed in two or more languages, are a well-established feature of the oral literature of Ireland. In this paper I consider a special development of the macaronic song in Ireland, what I have called the poly- macaronic lyric, where more languages than two are featured. Each of these additional languages, in this case Latin and French, has a specific cultural function in an Irish context, and I suggest that they act interrogatively, further undermining the aspiration of the occupying power to establish English as Ireland’s sole voice. As Brian Friel’s play Translations, first staged in 1980, shows, the history of the Irish language itself has been one of silenced voices, and the struggle for nationhood always linked closely with language, summed up in the Irish saying gan teanga gan tír “no language, no land” (Coughlan 2001: 216).

MILLAR School of History, Anthropology, Politics, and Philosophy, Queen’s University Belfast, Northern Ireland BT7 1NN, UK Email: [email protected] Abstract Irish rebel songs afford Scotland’s Irish diaspora a means to assert, experience, and perform their alterity free from the complexities of the Irish language. Yet this benign intent can be offset by how the music is perceived by elements of Scotland’s majority Protestant population. The Scottish Government’s Offensive Behaviour Act (2012) has been used to prosecute those singing Irish rebel songs and there is continuing debate as to how this alleged offence should be dealt with.
