  • Violence and the Sacred in Northern Ireland
    VIOLENCE AND THE SACRED IN NORTHERN IRELAND Duncan Morrow University of Ulster at Jordanstown For 25 years Northern Ireland has been a society characterized not so much by violence as by an endemic fear of violence. At a purely statistical level the risk of death as a result of political violence in Belfast was always between three and ten times less than the risk of murder in major cities of the United States. Likewise, the risk of death as the result of traffic accidents in Northern Ireland has been, on average, twice as high as the risk of death by political killing (Belfast Telegraph, 23 January 1994). Nevertheless, the tidal flow of fear about political violence, sometimes higher and sometimes lower but always present, has been the consistent fundamental backdrop to public, and often private, life. This preeminence of fear is triggered by past and present circumstances and is projected onto the vision of the future. The experience that disorder is ever close at hand has resulted in an endemic insecurity which gives rise to the increasingly conscious desire for a new order, for scapegoats and for resolution. For a considerable period of time, Northern Ireland has actively sought and made scapegoats but such actions have been ineffective in bringing about the desired resolution to the crisis. They have led instead to a continuous mimetic crisis of both temporal and spatial dimensions. To have lived in Northern Ireland is to have lived in that unresolved crisis. Liberal democracy has provided the universal transcendence of Northern Ireland's political models. Northern Ireland is physically and spiritually close to the heartland of liberal democracy: it is geographically bound by Britain and Ireland, economically linked to Western Europe, and historically tied to emigration to the United States, Canada, and the South Pacific.

  • Irish Immigration to America, 1630 to 1921 by Dr
    Irish Immigration to America, 1630 to 1921 By Dr. Catherine B. Shannon Reprinted courtesy of the New Bedford Whaling Museum Introduction The oft quoted aphorism that "Boston is the next parish to Galway" highlights the long and close connections between Ireland and New England that extend as far back as the 1600s. Colonial birth, death, marriage, and some shipping records cite the presence of Irish born people as early as the 1630s. For instance, in 1655 the ship Goodfellow arrived in Boston carrying a group of indentured servants, and John Hancock's ancestor, Anthony Hancock, arrived from Co. Down in 1681. According to the story of The Irish Gift of 1676, which provided aid after King Phillip's War, Rev. Cotton Mather and Governor Winthrop corresponded with their Irish friends and relatives, with as many as 105 soldiers of Irish origin serving in various militias during the war. However, up until 1715, the numbers of Irish in New England were less than 1%, a small percentage of the population.1 The First Wave of Irish Immigration, 1715 to 1845 The first significant influx of Irish immigrants to Boston and New England consisted primarily of Ulster Presbyterians and began in the early eighteenth century.2 They comprised about ten percent, or 20,000 of a larger migration of over 200,000 Ulster Presbyterians who fled the north of Ireland to America between 1700 and 1775. The majority arrived in Boston between 1714 and 1750, as most Ulster immigrants went to the mid-Atlantic area via Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Charleston beginning in the 1750s.

  • NORTHERN IRELAND and the SECOND WORLD WAR Dr Senia Paseta
    NORTHERN IRELAND AND THE SECOND WORLD WAR Dr Senia Paseta. St Hugh’s College, Oxford On the day after Britain announced it was at war with Germany, Lord Craigavon, Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, declared that ‘the whole of the resources’ of the province would be placed at the disposal of the imperial parliament. The loyalty of the Stormont administration was hardly in question during the period 1939-1945, but its ability to effectively organise and deploy resources, manpower and military support came under increasing scrutiny and exacerbated existing tensions within the province. Northern Ireland’s war began slowly. A number of British commentators noted that the province differed markedly from the rest of the country in its cavalier attitude to the crisis, and many contemporary reports suggest that life went on largely as normal. A Blackout order came into force in September 1939 and preparation for rationing food, petrol and other items followed soon after, but a lack of urgency characterised the government’s initial approach to placing the province on war- footing. Industry and agriculture were particularly slow to adjust: the rate of unemployment actually grew over 1940 as the economic opportunities offered by the war were slow to arrive. No new factory had been built by the end of 1940, and the munitions industries had the worst record of production in the United Kingdom during the early months of the war. It proved initially difficult to incorporate Northern Ireland’s economy into the United Kingdom’s, and perceptions of the region as remote, under-skilled and expensive further hindered such integration.

  • W. B. Yeats' Influence on Irish Nationalism, 1916-1923
    18 W.B. Yeats’ Influence on Irish Nationalism, 1916-1923 Mark Mulcahey 19 Mark graduated from Eastern Illinois University in 1999 with a B.A. in History. He is currently working on his M.A. at Brigham Young University, studying 20th Century U.S. Military History with an emphasis on U.S. military intervention. This paper was written for a course on The World in the Twentieth Century with Dr. Roger Beck. William Butler Yeats once said, “I understand my own race and in all my work, lyric or dramatic, I have thought of it . I shall write for my own people, whether in love or hate of them matters little, probably I shall not know which it is.”1 This credo is evident in the majority of Yeats’ literary efforts. Yeats believed literature should shape a country’s cultural identity, specifically in Yeats’ case, Ireland, while being free of all political motives. Despite this intention, Yeats’ literary addition to Ireland’s culture also contributed to radical Irish nationalism. Yeats’ main objective was to create an Irish identity free from English cultural influence. By no means was Yeats either an Anglophobe or an advocate for using violent tactics in nationalist movements. However, this did not prevent Yeats’ works from inspiring Irish nationalists who believed in using violence in order to attain self-rule. Padraig Pearse and Michael Collins, both of whom admired Yeats, interpreted Yeats’ works as supporting their respective ideologies during the Easter Uprising of 1916 and the Irish Civil War in 1922-1923. Yeats’ early poetry recounted Irish folklore, legends, and descriptions of Ireland’s natural imagery.

  • A Brief History of Ireland
    Reading Comprehension Name: ______________________________ Date: _____________________ A BRIEF HISTORY OF IRELAND Today, Ireland is a country with a bright future. In 2005, “Economist” magazine selected it as the best place in the world to live. Hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world share that opinion and have moved there in the last decade. But this optimistic outlook was not always the case. Ireland has a long, often bloody and tragic history. Ireland was first settled around the year 8000 BC, when hunter-gatherers came from Great Britain and Europe, possibly by land bridge. They lived by hunting and fishing for about four thousand years. Around 4000 BC they began to farm, and the old hunter-gatherer lifestyle gradually died out. The descendants of these original settlers built burial mounds and impressive monuments such as Ireland’s most famous prehistoric site, Newgrange. Newgrange is a stone tomb dated to sometime before 3000 BC: older than the pyramids in Egypt. Early Irish society was organized into a number of kingdoms, with a rich culture, a learned upper class, and artisans who created elaborate and beautiful metalwork with bronze, iron, and gold. Irish society was pagan for thousands of years. This changed in the early fifth century AD, when Christian missionaries, including the legendary St. Patrick, arrived. Christianity replaced the old pagan religions by the year 600. The early monks introduced the Roman alphabet to what had been largely an oral culture. They wrote down part of the rich collection of traditional stories, legends and mythology that might have otherwise been lost.

My hypothesis is that the repertoire of myths, memories and symbols of the Irish nation formed the basis for individual interpretations of the events of the Easter Rising, and that this interpretation, in turn, stimulated members of the Irish nation to support radical nationalism. I have based my work on an interdisciplinary approach, utilising theories of ethnicity and nationalism as well as social movements.

  • Irish Emigration Patterns and Citizens Abroad
    Irish Emigration Patterns and Citizens Abroad A diaspora of 70 million 1. It is important to recall from the outset that the oft-quoted figure of 70 million does not purport to be the number of Irish emigrants, abroad nor the number of Irish citizens abroad. Rather it is a figure that could be seen as relating best to the reference in Article 2 of Bunreacht na hÉireann which states that “The Irish nation cherishes its special affinity with people of Irish ancestry living abroad who share its cultural identity and heritage.” 2. The vast majority of this 70 million figure are descendants of Irish emigrants, often through several generations starting with those who left Ireland around the time of the Famine. The largest group in this figure is the 36 million people in America who in the last census self-identified as “Irish-American” or “Scots-Irish”. The balance of the 70 million figure would be made up of large Irish ancestry populations in Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and smaller Irish ancestry populations in Continental Europe and Latin America. 3. In terms of actual citizens abroad, it is estimated that there are approximately 1.47 million citizens resident outside the State. This figure does not include the population of Northern Ireland and their descendants in Britain, who total 2.121 million people. It should be recalled that under the Good Friday Agreement people in Northern Ireland have the right to be British, Irish or both. Historic Irish Emigration Profiles 4. Historically Ireland has occupied an unusual place in the wider pattern of European emigration, with very large numbers of emigrants relative to the total population of the country.
