    Making Their Mark 17 A CELEBRATION OF GREAT WOMEN ARTISTS Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats, in a 1901 portrait by Photograph of Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats (left) and Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats (right). Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats, in an 1887 Jack Butler Yeats. National Gallery of Ireland. portrait by Jack Butler Yeats. Sisters Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats (1866-1949, above, left) and Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats (1868-1940, above, right) were pivotal figures in the advancement of the Arts and Crafts style in Ireland. Founded in England by the British designer William Morris, the Arts and Crafts Movement advocated traditional, handcrafted objects as a rebellion against soulless factory-made furnishings. The Yeats sisters were from a preeminent Irish family--their father John and brother Jack were noted painters, and their other brother was the renowned poet William Butler Yeats. Born in Enniscrone, County Sligo, Ireland, Lily Yeats was a frequent visitor to William Morris when her family moved to London in the 1870s; she would learn embroidery from his daughter, May Morris. Younger sister Lolly Yeats, also in the Morris circle, was more interested in painting and printing; by the end of the century she had written and illustrated four instructional books on sketching directly with a brush. Upon returning to Ireland, both sisters would co-found the Dun Emer Guild, a Arts and Crafts group in Dublin managed and staffed entirely by women, with the textile designer Evelyn Gleeson (1855-1944). Guilds, as opposed to factories, were a return to the Medieval and Renaissance guilds that once served as the primary centers of art production.

    Collection List A19

    Leabharlann Náisiúnta na hÉireann National Library of Ireland Collection List 19 Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson Papers (MS 13,698) (Accession 2501) Partial calendar with brief description of letters sent by Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson between 1879 and 1928. Letters are arranged according to year and date. 1 Introduction Henry, Augustine (1857–1930), botanical collector and dendrologist, was born on 2 July 1857 in Dundee, the first of six children of Bernard Henry (c.1825–1891) and Mary MacNamee. His father, at one time a gold-prospector in California and Australia, was a native of the townland of Tyanee on the west bank of the River Bann in co. Londonderry. Soon after Austin (as Augustine was called within his family) was born, the family moved to Cookstown, co. Tyrone, where his father was in business as a flax dealer and owned a grocery shop. Henry was educated at Cookstown Academy and in Queen's College, Galway. He studied natural sciences and philosophy, graduating with a first-class bachelor of arts degree and a gold medal in 1877. Henry then studied medicine at Queen's College, Belfast, where he obtained his master of arts degree in 1878. For a year he was in the London Hospital, and during a visit to Belfast in 1879, at the suggestion of one of his professors, he applied for a medical post in the Chinese imperial maritime customs service. Henry completed his medical studies as rapidly as he could, became a licentiate from the Royal College of Physicians in Edinburgh, passed the Chinese customs service examinations (for which he required a working knowledge of Chinese) and and left for China in the summer of 1881.

    Hiver 2017 Éditorial

    HIVER 2017 ÉDITORIAL DE RETOUR DES TRANS Dimanche 4 décembre à 10h57, je me pose dans le train qui me ramène de Rennes avec ma valise à roulettes bruyantes dans une main et un grand café fumant dans l’autre, les yeux encore mi-clos mais des sons et des images pleins la tête. La 38ème édition des Transmusicales de Rennes fut ma 5ème d’affilée. Je regarde les paysages défiler à la vitesse du Train à Grande Vitesse en songeant aux quelques soixante groupes que j’ai dû voir en quatre jours, remontant sur mon petit carnet le nom des groupes appréciés ou qui m’ont déçus lors du festival, potentiellement programmables ou pas à la Cave aux Poètes. Je me pose alors une question essentielle, voire existentialiste : est-ce que je vais vraiment aux Transmusicales pour programmer les groupes dans la foulée sous le prétexte qu’ils ont tous des agents en France déjà au travail sur leur imminente tournée française ? Et là je me dis, en retraçant les cinq éditions écoulées à vitesse grand V, que finalement je vais un peu aux Transmusicales de Rennes comme les gens de la mode vont au Salon « Première vision » : on y découvre les tendances de demain, et pas seulement des groupes en particulier. Alors j’examine la programmation, lis quelques premiers articles, et tente de me remémorer certaines conversations avec d’éminents confrères programmateurs… Et pour parler de tendances, il y alors trois idées majeures qui me viennent à l’esprit pour les années à venir. La première est qu’une large place est donnée cette année aux musiques du monde, comme une sorte de barrage aux élans nationalistes actuels ou comme une capacité d’ouverture de la jeunesse qui prend aujourd’hui l’avion comme on prend le métro.

  • “On Being a Woman Writer”: Atwood's Canadian and Feminist Contexts

    “On Being a Woman Writer”: Atwood's Canadian and Feminist Contexts

    “On Being a Woman Writer”: Atwood’s Canadian and Feminist Contexts Heidi Slettedahl Macpherson When you begin to write you’re in love with the language, the act of cre- ation, with yourself partly; but as you go on, the writing—if you follow it—will take you places you never intended to go and show you things you would never otherwise have seen. I began as a profoundly apolitical writer, but then I began to do what all novelists and some poets do: I began to describe the world around me. (Atwood, Second Words 15) Margaret Atwood began her writing career at a time when Canadian literature did not have a clearly established canon or identity. In fact, she has been credited with helping to “invent” Canadian literature as a critical concept, both because she herself is a proli¿c poet, novelist and short story writer, but also because she has published books of literary and cultural criticism throughout her long career. As she noted in the early 1970s, “Until recently, reading Canadian literature has been for me and for everyone else who did it a personal interest, since it was not taught, required or even mentioned (except with derision) in the public sphere” (Survival 13). That attitude has clearly changed, not only be- cause of Atwood’s own position as a very important cultural icon, but also because of the preeminence of contemporary Canadian writers on the world literary stage. Atwood’s contemporaries include Alice Mun- ro, Carol Shields, Margaret Laurence, and Marian Engel, among oth- ers; Joan Barfoot and Michael Ondaatje are only a few years younger than she is.
