Jews, Antisemitism and Irish Politics: a Tale of Two Narratives1
Jews, Antisemitism and Irish Politics: A Tale of Two Narratives1 by Natalie Wynn Zusammenfassung Im Artikel wird eine der größten Schwächen der Historiographie der irischen Juden- heiten betrachtet: die fehlende Bestimmung des wahren Ausmaßes des Antisemitismus und dessen Auswirkungen auf die jüdische Gemeinschaft in Irland. Hierfür wird ein kurzer Überblick über einen Ausschnitt des irisch-jüdischen Narrativs gegeben: das jüdische Verhältnis zur nationalistischen Politik in Irland. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf der Notwendigkeit für einen neuartigen Umgang mit den Quellen und den vorliegen- den Sachverhalten, um eine ganzheitliche, objektivere und inklusive Geschichte der irischen Judenheiten zu schreiben. Abstract This article considers one of the major weaknesses in the existing historiography of Irish Jewry, the failure to consider the true extent and impact of antisemitism on Ireland’s Jewish community. This is illustrated through a brief survey of one small area of the Irish-Jewish narrative, the Jewish relationship with Irish nationalist politics. Throug- hout, the focus remains on the need for a fresh approach to the sources and the issues at hand, in order to create a more holistic, objective and inclusive history of the Jewish experience in Ireland. Introduction It has been written that: “There is a fanciful and entirely mythical connection of the Jews with Ireland, and there is a historical and actual connection.”2 Although these words were penned in 1915 and refer to the wealth of fanciful 1 I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Zuleika Rodgers, for her ongoing support and her assistance in preparing this article, and Professor Cormac Ó Gráda for his generosity in allowing me access to his research materials on Irish Jewry. -
Re:Membrance of Absence
Re:membrance of Absence Disrupting perceptions of Jewish and minority identity in Ireland through theatre. by Aideen Wylde Supervisor: Doctor Michael Finneran A thesis submitted for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Drama and Theatre Studies Mary Immaculate College (Coláiste Mhuire Gan Smál) University of Limerick Abstract This research examines social, historical and theoretical reasons that have contributed to the noticeable omission of minority voices, specifically Jewish voices, from Irish theatre narratives to date. The creation of the play Here Shall We Rest (HSWR) was the practical culmination of this investigation. Testimonials from eight participants around their experience as either Irish-Jewish or Jewish and resident in Ireland form the foundational material for the play text of HSWR. The qualitative research methodology employed here combines elements of ethnography and auto-ethnography, practice research and narrative enquiry. As a direct result of the work undertaken, I propose an early iteration of a new methodology for making theatre on minority culture: Third Voice Theatre. Inspired by S. Anksy’s Yiddish play Der Dibuk, HSWR follows the journey of a supernatural character through a liminal landscape inhabited by various narratives expressed in the fieldwork interviews I conducted. These stories expose complexities around Jewish identity, whether self-expressed or socially imposed. The play draws on my experience of perceptions of Jewish culture in Ireland as expressed by some non-Jews, and as non-Jewish myself. The play also seeks to address some of the misconceptions about Jewish heritage and incidences of antisemitisim in Ireland through social and historical lenses. Creating a piece of theatre on this subject allowed me to reimagine negative representations of Jewish characters in Irish theatre. -
Ireland's Jews: Past, Present, Future Rory Miller
www.jcpa.org No. 35, 15 August 2008 / 14 Av 5768 Ireland's Jews: Past, Present, Future Rory Miller ● Irish Jews have historically played a role in Jewish life out of all proportion to their numbers, despite the fact that they were on the margins of the Jewish world. Before 1948 the Irish Jewish community, which had come overwhelmingly from Lithuania in the period from 1880 to 1914, was one of the most pro- Zionist in Western Europe and a major per capita supporter of the Jewish National Fund (JNF), as well as other Zionist organizations and institutions. ● Irish Jews have played a significant role in all sectors of Irish society including national political life, but since the early 1950s when it peaked at 4,500 members the community has been shrinking in size and influence. According to the 2006 census there are 1,930 Jews in Ireland, with about 1,250 residing in Dublin and the remainder scattered across the country. ● Although there have always been sporadic anti-Semitic incidents, Ireland has provided a safe haven for Jews. But the current widespread support for a boycott of Israel among civil society groups is a worrying development, as is the potential of the growing Irish Muslim community to become radicalized. ● The economic boom since the 1990s provided a number of opportunities and challenges for Irish Jewry. The strong economy led to an increase in the number of Jews who have settled in Ireland for economic reasons. It also, however, turned Ireland into a multicultural and multiracial society that has challenged Irish Jewry's status as the major non-Christian minority in the country. -

Having Surveyed Its Three Main Historical Contexts, the Scene Is Now Set for a Thorough Re-Examination of Ireland's Jewish
CHAPTER TWO DECONSTRUCTING THE IRISH JEWISH NARRATIVE Having surveyed its three main historical contexts, the scene is now set for a thorough re-examination of Ireland’s Jewish community in its foundation period, beginning with its historiography.1 Although Jews have always been a relatively small minority in Ireland, they have received significant and, some would argue, disproportionate attention as the subject of a host of memoirs, fiction, popular histories, academic studies and documentaries.2 However, as is often the case, quantity has certainly been no indication of quality. The fascination with Irish Jewry, as an unexpected presence in a country that is so universally celebrated for entirely unrelated reasons, has contributed to the lack of introspection and rounded critical scrutiny that are the norm in other areas of academic enquiry. The resulting analytical shortfalls will now be confronted, as a prelude to the detailed study of communal history that follows in Chapters Three and Four. Section 2.1 explores the term ‘Irish Jewish history’ itself, highlighting the often blurred distinction between narrative and critical historical enquiry, before moving on to a thorough re-evaluation of the historical origins of the contemporary community. The rest of the chapter focuses on the way in which the historiographical issues that are identified in Section 2.1 have impacted on popular and academic interpretations of Irish Jewish history alike. In Section 2.2, the standard communal narrative is examined in respect of three key themes: antisemitism, the Jewish contribution to Irish society and the Jewish relationship with Irish nationalism. The tendency to reduce the Jewish experience in Ireland to the sum of its positive aspects at the cost of nuance and objectivity, is rejected. -
