  • The Kellys and the O'kellys by Anthony Trollope
    The Kellys and the O'Kellys by Anthony Trollope The Kellys and the O'Kellys by Anthony Trollope errors. Most notably, much of Trollope's original punctuation is missing. We are in the process of correcting and updating the text. THE KELLYS AND THE O'KELLYS by ANTHONY TROLLOPE I THE TRIAL During the first two months of the year 1844, the greatest possible excitement existed in Dublin respecting the State Trials, in which Mr O'Connell, his son, the Editors of three different repeal newspapers, Tom Steele, the Rev. Mr Tierney a priest who had taken a somewhat prominent part in the Repeal Movement and Mr Ray, the Secretary to the Repeal Association, were indicted for conspiracy. Those who only read of the page 1 / 709 proceedings in papers, which gave them as a mere portion of the news of the day, or learned what was going on in Dublin by chance conversation, can have no idea of the absorbing interest which the whole affair created in Ireland, but more especially in the metropolis. Every one felt strongly, on one side or on the other. Every one had brought the matter home to his own bosom, and looked to the result of the trial with individual interest and suspense. Even at this short interval Irishmen can now see how completely they put judgment aside, and allowed feeling and passion to predominate in the matter. Many of the hottest protestants, of the staunchest foes to O'Connell, now believe that his absolute imprisonment was not to be desired, and that whether he were acquitted or convicted, the Government would have sufficiently shown, by instituting his trial, its determination to put down proceedings of which they did not approve.

    2 Horseracing, the media and British leisure culture, 1918–39 edia experience was part of everyday activity. It helped make sense of the Mworld and construct cultural citizenship.1 Reading the racing pages in the sporting, national and regional press or the adverts, novels and non-fiction with a racing theme, provided a temporary escape from Britain’s economic problems. Watching breathtaking racing action shots in newsreel and film was enhanced by ever-improving photographic equipment. As electricity and radio became more available, the BBC radio commentaries on the premier races, with their sustained dramatic action, contributed to the creation of an emerging mass cul- ture. In the late 1930s the first television coverage arrived. The inter-relationships between racing and British culture, society and the media were ambiguous, complicated and subtle. The following sections explore the highly complex, sophisticated and resolutely populist cultural representa- tions of racing and betting in the mass media, whose ideological power and dominant, negotiated and oppositional influences played a crucial role in fos- tering British sporting identity.2 They fed off and contributed to an interest in racing, helping to reconstruct social identities and rework norms and values. The media confirmed and reinforced the extent to which racing was part of a common culture, a highly popular leisure form across all levels of British society, and made celebrities out of leading racing figures. Racing and the media were interdependent, shaping and reflecting the increased interest in racing and betting, whilst at the same time, in fiction and film, presenting a partial, distorted or imagined view of racing culture.
