  • The Journal of a London Playgoer from 1851 to 1866
    BOOKS AND PAPERS HENRY MORLEY 1851 1866 II THE JOURNAL LONDON PLAYGOER FROM 1851 TO 1866 HENRY MORLEY, LL.D, EMERITUS PROFESSOR OF ENGLISH LITERATURE IN UNIVERSITY COLLEGE. LONDON LONDON GEORGE ROUTLEDGE AND SONS, LIMITED BROADWAY, LUDGATE HILL GLASGOW, MANCHESTER, AND NEW. .YORK < ' ' PN PROLOGUE. THE writer who first taught Englishmen to look for prin- ciples worth study in the common use of speech, expecting censure for choice of a topic without dignity, excused him- self with this tale out of Aristotle. When Heraclitus lived, a famous Greek, there were some persons, led by curiosity to see him, who found him warming himself in his kitchen, and paused at the threshold because of the meanness of the " place. But the philosopher said lo them, Enter boldly, " for here too there are Gods". The Gods" in the play- house are, indeed, those who receive outside its walls least honour among men, and they have a present right to be its Gods, I fear, not only because they are throned aloft, but also because theirs is the mind that regulates the action of the mimic world below. They rule, and why ? Is not the educated man himself to blame when he turns with a shrug from the too often humiliating list of an evening's perform- ances at all the theatres, to say lightly that the stage is ruined, and thereupon make merit of withdrawing all atten- tion from the players ? The better the stage the better the town. If the stage were what it ought to be, and what good it actors heartily desire to make it, would teach the public to appreciate what is most worthy also in the sister arts, while its own influence would be very strong for good.

The young James Joyce described him as ‘the national poet’,3 but Mangan’s leanings were international, and his delight in the East emerged in a series of six articles on Oriental poetry, titled ‘Literæ Orientales’, published in the Dublin University Magazine between September 1837 and January 1846.

  • Jonathan Swift Address by Dr Don Thornhill, St Patrick's Cathedral
    Jonathan Swift Address by Dr Don Thornhill, St Patrick’s Cathedral, Dublin, 17 October, 2010 I would like to thank my friend and neighbour from Co Waterford, the Very Reverend Dr Robert McCarthy for giving me the honour and pleasure of speaking here this afternoon. But some caveats and acknowledgements are in order. As regards the caveats I hope that in inviting me here, as the Dean himself wrote, to speak, and I quote, “on any aspect of Swift”, the Dean was not, like his predecessor, being ironic. I am not a historian or a literary scholar. My interests are some distance away in economic policy, taxation and competitiveness, public sector reform and education policy. In the arenas where these topics are discussed I and other have preached from time to time – but never before from a pulpit! But I was helped by the patience, support and critical contributions (critical in both senses of the word!) of my family, particularly Maura, and of my friends during the past few months. I would like to thank Dr Ronan Kelly, author of Bard of Erin, a much acclaimed biography of Thomas Moore, who gave me essential advice and guidance. In our current economic circumstances it would, of course be tempting in response to the Dean’s invitation by quoting liberally from Swift’s commentaries on human foolishness and injustices. His saeva indignatio/ savage indignation, some of which he directed at bankers, undoubtedly has a contemporary resonance 1. A “What would Swift say if he were alive today ” exercise could be entertaining and maybe cause some bitter amusement but others are better equipped to do it.

  • Irish Playwrights and the Dunedin Stage in 1862: Theatre Patrons Performing Civility
    Irish Playwrights and the Dunedin Stage in 1862: Theatre Patrons Performing Civility PETER KUCH Irish Plays on the Dunedin Stage in 1862 A first-rate actor of Irish characters is indispensible on a London Stage. Cumberland’s British Theatre, 1828. Between 1862 and 1869 there were some 300 performances of Irish plays in Dunedin‘s theatres. Kuch, Irish Society for Theatre Research, 2010. A mere 14 years after it was founded by Presbyterians as a distinctly Scottish city that was ―in the world but not of the world,‖ Dunedin possessed two splendid theatres that during their first decade of operation staged some 300 performances of Irish plays and plays by Irish playwrights. How did this happen? Why Irish plays? Why Irish playwrights? And why were two theatres, with capacities of 1500 and 1330 persons, opened in Dunedin a year before Otago Boys High School was founded, five years before the foundations of First Church were laid, and seven years before the Provincial Council turned its attentions to establishing a University?1 Initially, it was the theatres that were a source of civic pride. According to an 1862 issue of the Otago Witness, Dunedin possessed ―two of the handsomest theatres in the Australian colonies.‖ 2 While there are doubtless many explanations for this rush to build theatres, the short answer is that the city was overtaken by the very world it had sought to isolate itself from. But this is an answer that invites explanation. First, it has to do with what was on offer on stage. It has been well established by theatre historians that Irish playwrights (particularly Dion Boucicault) and Irish plays (particularly comedy and melodrama) dominated the nineteenth-century stage—whether in Dublin or London or New York.3 It is also well known that, by the time the Theatre Royal and The Princess Theatre were opened in Dunedin, the ―legitimate drama‖4 had become widely if not firmly established as the secular vehicle for social and cultural improvement.

  • Afrin Zeenat. “Writing Irish Nationhood: Jonathan Swift's Coming to Terms
    Nebula 6.2 , June 2009 Writing Irish Nationhood: Jonathan Swift’s Coming to Terms with his Birthplace. By Afrin Zeenat “Swift can…combine contraries of the most compelling kind.” 1 Seamus Deane. “… the Janus-faced ambivalence of language… in the construction of the Janus-faced discourse of the nation.” 2 Homi K. Bhabha Echoing Bhabha’s statement, Jonathan Swift’s “Janus-faced ambivalence” toward his birthplace Ireland has puzzled many readers making it difficult for them to identify him as an Irish patriot. 3 Despite Swift’s works on Ireland in which he rallies for Ireland and the native Irish, many critics continue to stress Swift’s anathema and contempt for people of his native land. 4 Such an essentialist reading of Swift would fail to understand the innate ambivalence that is a salient feature of his works. Swift’s Irish tracts point to a change in his attitude towards his native land, which asserts itself forcefully as his love for England and things English ebb, and can be attributed to personal, political and historical reasons. Swift’s life and works presage the ambivalence that is later pronounced in the works of post-colonial writers, who often vacillate between the country of their colonial overlords and their native countries. Based on Frantz Fanon’s ideas on the formation of a national consciousness,5 this chapter will trace a similar formation of Swift’s national consciousness for his native country, which finds a voice in his works on Ireland. 1 Seamus Deane, “Classic Swift,” The Cambridge Companion to Jonathan Swift, (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2003), 245.

The time-frame has been selected for two reasons: (1) actresses active after 1870 have been the subject of several dissertations and scholarly studies, while relatively little research has been completed on women active on the American stage prior to 1870, and (2) prior to 1850 there was limited theatre activity in this country and very few professional actresses. A general description of mid-nineteenth-century theatre and its social context is provided, including a summary of major developments in theatre in New York and other cities from 1850 to 1870, discussions of the star system, the combination company, and the mid-century audience.

  • James Joyce and His Influences: William Faulkner and Anthony Burgess
    James Joyce and His Influences: William Faulkner and Anthony Burgess An abstract of a Dissertation by Maxine i!3urke July, Ll.981 Drake University Advisor: Dr. Grace Eckley The problem. James Joyce's Ulysses provides a basis for examining and analyzing the influence of Joyce on selected works of William Faulkner and Anthony Bur­ gess especially in regard to the major ideas and style, and pattern and motif. The works to be used, in addi­ tion to Ulysses, include Faulkner's "The Bear" in Go Down, Moses and Mosquitoes and Burgess' Nothing Like the Sun. For the purpose, then, of determining to what de­ gree Joyce has influenced other writers, the ideas and techniques that explain his influence such as his lingu­ istic innovations, his use of mythology, and his stream­ of-consciousness technique are discussed. Procedure. Research includes a careful study of each of the works to be used and an examination of var­ ious critics and their works for contributions to this influence study. The plan of analysis and presentation includes, then, a prefatory section of the dissertation which provides a general statement stating the thesis of this dissertation, some background material on Joyce and his Ulysses, and a summary of the material discussed in each chapter. Next are three chapters which explain Joyce's influence: an introduction to Joyce and Ulysses; Joyce and Faulkner; and Joyce and Burgess. Thus Chapter One, for the purpose of showing how Joyce influences other writers, discusses the ideas and techniques that explain his influences--such things as his linguistic innovations, his use of mythology, and his stream-of­ consciousness method.

    udc 821.111-31.09 Joyce J. doi 10.18485/bells.2015.7.1 Michael McAteer Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Budapest, Hungary W. B. YEAT’S PRESENCE IN JAMES JOYCE’S A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN Abstract In the context of scholarly re-evaluations of James Joyce’s relation to the literary revival in Ireland at the start of the twentieth century, this essay examines the significance of W.B. Yeats to A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. It traces some of the debates around Celtic and Irish identity within the literary revival as a context for understanding the pre-occupations evident in Joyce’s novel, noting the significance of Yeats’s mysticism to the protagonist of Stephen Hero, and its persistence in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man later. The essay considers the theme of flight in relation to the poetry volume that is addressed directly in the novel, Yeats’s 1899 collection, The Wind Among the Reeds. In the process, the influence of Yeats’s thought and style is observed both in Stephen Dedalus’s forms of expression and in the means through which Joyce conveys them. Particular attention is drawn to the notion of enchantment in the novel, and its relation to the literature of the Irish Revival. The later part of the essay turns to the 1899 performance of Yeats’s play, The Countess Cathleen, at the Antient Concert Rooms in Dublin, and Joyce’s memory of the performance as represented through Stephen towards the end of the novel.
