It's the most disgraceful country that I have ever seen, They're hanging men and women for the wearing of the green . —Anon, 1798 If you ask most people today, they will never have heard of Napper Tandy, unless they are Irish. Then they may, just MAY, remember the words of the ballad quoted above. By way of introduction, some words on the state of Ireland in general and Dublin in particular in the second half of the 18th century, the backdrop against which much of this story is painted, may be of interest. If not, skip forward to Chapter 1. It was in many respects a lawless place, quite literally, for there was no effective police force until well into the 19th century. And yet they were an extremely litigious crowd, those Georgian Irish. They fought with their tongues and their pens with great skill. But equally they fought with their swords and their pistols too.

  • A Short History of Irish Memory in the Long Twentieth Century
    Thomas Bartlett (ed.), The Cambridge History of Ireland Irish Memory in the Long Twentieth Century (Cambridge, 2018), vol. IV: 1800 to Present would later be developed by his disciple Maurice Halbwachs, who coined the term collective memory ('la memoire collective'). By calling attention to the social frameworks in which memory is framed ('les cadres sociaux de la 23 · memoire'), Halbwachs presented a sound theoretical model for understand­ ing how individual members of a society collectively remember their past. 3 A Short History of Irish Memory in The impression that modernisation had uprooted people from tradition and the Long Twentieth Century that mass society suffered from atomised impersonality gave birth to a vogue GUY BEINER for commemoration, which was seen as a fundamental act of communal soli­ darity, in that it projected an illusion of continuity with the past.4 Ireland, outside of Belfast, did not undergo industrialisation on a scale comparable with England, and yet Irish society was not spared the upheaval On the cusp of the twentieth century; Ireland was obsessed with memoriali­ of modernity. The Great Famine had decimated vernacular Gaelic culture sation. This condition reflected a transnational zeitgeist that was indicative of and resulted in massive emigration. An Irish variant of fin de siecle angst over a crisis of memory throughout Europe. The outcome of rapid modernisa­ degeneration fed on apprehensions that British rule would ultimately result tion, manifested through changes ushered in by such far-reaching processes in the loss of 'native' identity. The perceived threat to national culture, artic­ as industrialisation, urbanisation, commercialisation and migration, raised ulated in Douglas Hyde's manifesto on 'The Necessity for De-Anglicising fears that the rituals and customs through which the past had been habitually Ireland' (1892), stimulated a vigorous response in the form of the Irish Revival remembered in the countryside were destined to be swept away.

  • Cultural Convergence the Dublin Gate Theatre, 1928–1960
    Cultural Convergence The Dublin Gate Theatre, 1928–1960 Edited by Ondřej Pilný · Ruud van den Beuken · Ian R. Walsh Cultural Convergence “This well-organised volume makes a notable contribution to our understanding of Irish theatre studies and Irish modernist studies more broadly. The essays are written by a diverse range of leading scholars who outline the outstanding cultural importance of the Dublin Gate Theatre, both in terms of its national significance and in terms of its function as a hub of international engagement.” —Professor James Moran, University of Nottingham, UK “The consistently outstanding contributions to this illuminating and cohesive collection demonstrate that, for Gate Theatre founders Hilton Edwards and Micheál mac Liammóir and their collaborators, the limits of the imagination lay well beyond Ireland’s borders. Individually and collectively, the contribu- tors to this volume unravel the intricate connections, both personal and artistic, linking the theatre’s directors, designers, and practitioners to Britain, Europe, and beyond; they examine the development and staging of domestic plays written in either English or Irish; and they trace across national boundaries the complex textual and production history of foreign dramas performed in translation. In addition to examining a broad spectrum of intercultural and transnational influ- ences and perspectives, these frequently groundbreaking essays also reveal the extent to which the early Gate Theatre was a cosmopolitan, progressive, and inclusive space that recognized and valued women’s voices and queer forms of expression.” —Professor José Lanters, University of Wisconsin—Milwaukee, USA “Cultural Convergence is a book for which we have been waiting, not just in Irish theatre history, but in Irish cultural studies more widely.

    Kenneth Goldstein MUNFLA Song Collections Finding Aid Carol Pelletier, comp. with the assistance of Sandra Hounsell March 1996 Introduction 1 Inventory of Collections 3 Tape Number Concordance 7 Song Title Index 13 Performer Index 87 Memorial University of Newfoundland Folklore and Language Archive (MUNFLA) St. John's, Newfoundland CANADA A1B 3X8 1996 ...\kgoldsco.hd This finding aid gives access to the folksong collections of Dr. Kenneth S. Goldstein (1927-1995) housed at the Memorial University of Newfoundland Folklore and Language Archive (MUNFLA). Kenneth Goldstein, a distinguished American folklore scholar and theorist, spent two years (1976-78) as the head of the Department of Folklore at the Memorial University of Newfoundland. From that time until his death on 11 November 1995 he was a Research Associate at Memorial. In this capacity and with several local collectors, from 1978 until 1990, he amassed a collection of folksongs from various parts of Newfoundland and Labrador. His Newfoundland collections came from St. John’s, the Southern Shore, St. Mary’s Bay, Placentia Bay, the Burin Peninsula, Conception Bay, Trinity Bay, Bonavista Bay, White Bay, Fogo Island, the Great Northern Peninsula and the Codroy Region. He also recorded songs in Central Labrador and the southern coast of Labrador. About 3400 songs were collected by Goldstein from 243 performers in the province. The Goldstein materials at MUNFLA comprise 208 tapes, organized into twenty-three collections. Each tape is uniquely identified by its own shelflist number (prefixed by an F- or a C-, depending on whether it is a workcopy), and each collection by its accession number.
