    W. B. Yeats William Butler Yeats was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1923. Working together with Lady Gregory and John M. Synge, he was the director of Ireland's National Theatre Society, better known as the Abbey Theatre company. His first rather patriotic plays T h e "The Wanderings of Oisin" Countess Cathleen (1892) and Cathleen ní Houlihan (1902) were mainly written during the time of his long liaison with Maud Gonne who strengthened his enthusiasm for Irish It was W. B. Yeats who in his work drew heavily on old Irish historical and folk materials and thus contributed n a t i o n a l i s m . notably to what came to be called the Celtic Revival. "The Wanderings of Oisin" is a mystical narrative poem about Oisin, the poet of the Celtic Fionn cycle who spends 300 years in the pre-Christian Otherworld. After returning from the Otherworld he has a passionate conversation with St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, in which he is full of praise for the pagan values he has experienced there. – W.

  • What's in an Irish Name?

    What's in an Irish Name?

    What’s in an Irish Name? A Study of the Personal Naming Systems of Irish and Irish English Liam Mac Mathúna (St Patrick’s College, Dublin) 1. Introduction: The Irish Patronymic System Prior to 1600 While the history of Irish personal names displays general similarities with the fortunes of the country’s place-names, it also shows significant differences, as both first and second names are closely bound up with the ego-identity of those to whom they belong.1 This paper examines how the indigenous system of Gaelic personal names was moulded to the requirements of a foreign, English-medium administration, and how the early twentieth-century cultural revival prompted the re-establish- ment of an Irish-language nomenclature. It sets out the native Irish system of surnames, which distinguishes formally between male and female (married/ un- married) and shows how this was assimilated into the very different English sys- tem, where one surname is applied to all. A distinguishing feature of nomen- clature in Ireland today is the phenomenon of dual Irish and English language naming, with most individuals accepting that there are two versions of their na- me. The uneasy relationship between these two versions, on the fault-line of lan- guage contact, as it were, is also examined. Thus, the paper demonstrates that personal names, at once the pivots of individual and group identity, are a rich source of continuing insight into the dynamics of Irish and English language contact in Ireland. Irish personal names have a long history. Many of the earliest records of Irish are preserved on standing stones incised with the strokes and dots of ogam, a 1 See the paper given at the Celtic Englishes II Colloquium on the theme of “Toponyms across Languages: The Role of Toponymy in Ireland’s Language Shifts” (Mac Mathúna 2000).
