A Book of Irish Verse
A BOOK OF IRISH VERSE W.B. YEATS TO THE MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL LITERARY SOCIETY OF DUBLIN AND THE IRISH LITERARY SOCIETY OF LONDON PREFACE I HAVE not found it possible to revise this book as completely as I should have wished. I have corrected a bad mistake of a copyist, and added a few pages of new verses towards the end, and softened some phrases in the introduction which seemed a little petulant in form, and written in a few more to describe writers who have appeared during the last four years, and that is about all. I compiled it towards the end of a long indignant argument, carried on in the committee rooms of our literary societies, and in certain newspapers between a few writers of our new movement, who judged Irish literature by literary standards, and a number of people, a few of whom were writers, who judged it by its patriotism and by its political effect; and I hope my opinions may have value as part of an argument which may awaken again. The Young Ireland writers wrote to give the peasantry a literature in English in place of the literature they were losing with Gaelic, and these methods, which have shaped the literary thought of Ireland to our time, could not be the same as the methods of a movement which, so far as it is more than an instinctive expression of certain moods of the soul, endeavours to create a reading class among the more leisured classes, which will preoccupy itself with Ireland and the needs of Ireland. -
ACTA UNI VERSITATIS LODZIENSIS David Gilligan ONCE ALIEN HERE
ACTA UNI VERSITATIS LODZIENSIS FOLIA LITTER ARIA ANGLICA 4, 2000 David Gilligan University of Łódź ONCE ALIEN HERE: THE POETRY OF JOHN HEWITT John Hewitt, who died in 1987 at the age of 80 years, has been described as the “elder statesman” of Ulster poetry. He began writing poetry in the 1920s but did not appear in book form until 1948; his final collection appearing in 1986. However, as Frank Ormsby points out in the 1991 edition of Poets From The North of Ireland, recognition for Hewitt came late in life and he enjoyed more homage and attention in his final years than for most of his creative life. In that respect he is not unlike Poland’s latest Nobel Prize winner in literature. His status was further recognized by the founding of the John Hewitt International Summer School in 1988. It is somewhat strange that such a prominent and central figure in Northern Irish poetry should at the same time be characterised in his verse as a resident alien, isolated and marginalised by the very society he sought to encapsulate and represent in verse. But then Northern Ireland/Ulster is and was a strange place for a poet to flourish within. In relation to the rest of the United Kingdom it was always something of a fossilised region which had more than its share of outdated thought patterns, language, social and political behaviour. Though ostensibly a parliamentary democracy it was a de-facto, one-party, statelet with its own semi-colonial institutions; every member of the executive of the ruling Unionist government was a member of a semi-secret masonic movement (The Orange Order) and amongst those most strongly opposed to the state there was a similar network of semi-secret societies (from the I.R.A. -

William Butler Yeats, from 1903 to 1940
The Cuala Press (originally the Dun Emer Press, 1903 – 1907) was a private press operated by Elizabeth Yeats, sister of William Butler Yeats, from 1903 to 1940. After Elizabeth Yeats’ death in 1940, the press was run by Esther Ryan and Marie Gill until its demise in 1946. Inspired by William Morris’ Arts and Crafts Movement, the press published works by writers associated with the Irish Literary Revival. The Irish Collection of the Rare Books and Manuscripts Library at the Ohio State University Libraries owns over eighty percent of the titles published by the Cuala Press.

Donegal -- Derry
Chapter 3 THE NORTH-WEST counties Roscommon -- Leitrim -- Cavan -- Fermanagh -- west Tyrone -- Donegal -- Derry ROSCOMMON Rathcrogan West of Edgeworthstown (which has now reverted to its old name of Mostrim) on the N5 Longford-Castlebar road [1] , is Rathcrogan , Co.Roscommon. As Cruachan this was the site of the royal palace of Queen Maeve , and here were sown the seeds of the Táin, the 'Cattle Raid of Cooley ' [2] . Maeve ( Medb ), Queen of Connacht, and her consort, Ailill, are in bed in their palace on one of the mounds still to be seen at Rathcrogan, and he, with mixed humour and malice, muses: 'You are better off today than when I married you.' Maeve is indignant, and responds with an account of her genealogy, her battle- prowess, and the number of soldiers of her own that she had before she married Ailill. Then she seems to change tack, admitting that she had 'a strange bride-gift such as no woman before had asked of the men of Ireland, that is, a man without meanness, jealousy, or fear': Ailill had brought with him those gifts, he was just such a man, equal to herself in generosity and grace. One can almost see Ailill, pleased, relaxing and lowering his guard. However, Maeve continues; she had brought with her 'the breadth of your face in red gold, the weight of your left arm in bronze. So, whoever imposes shame or annoyance or trouble on you, you have no claim for compensation or honour-price other than what comes to me -- for you are a man dependant on a woman.' Ailill replies loftily that his two brothers were kings, one of Temair (Tara), the other of Leinster, and he had only decided to marry Maeve, and thus become a king himself, 'because I heard of no province in Ireland ruled by a woman save this province alone.' Scholars have suggested that this is the mythological representation of an historical shift from matriarchy to political patriarchy, as well as from goddess to god. -
William Allingham HDT WHAT? INDEX
WILLIAM AND HELEN ALLINGHAM This is about a book that we found in Thoreau’s personal library and another book by the same author, out of which Thoreau copied into his 1st commonplace book. Our project, if there is one, will be to figure out what Thoreau was deriving from this particular author — what it was, if anything, that Thoreau had found of value in his work. “NARRATIVE HISTORY” AMOUNTS TO FABULATION, THE REAL STUFF BEING MERE CHRONOLOGY “Stack of the Artist of Kouroo” Project William Allingham HDT WHAT?
