The firsc is the chronicling of the bare facts of school life, the lists of the terms functions and functionaries, and the Sports events. The second is the interpretation of the spirit of the school and of its multifarious activities by means of descriptive writing. Often the two methods are mixed; for instance, the report on the play will contain both the programme and a criticism of the production or, an account of a Rugger match will include the names of the team and the scorers, and a description of how the team played. The facts are the bones of the Harrovian, but without the flesh and blood of ideas it cannot be made to live.

  • Manx Gaelic and Physics, a Personal Journey, by Brian Stowell
    keynote address Editors’ note: This is the text of a keynote address delivered at the 2011 NAACLT conference held in Douglas on The Isle of Man. Manx Gaelic and physics, a personal journey Brian Stowell. Doolish, Mee Boaldyn 2011 At the age of sixteen at the beginning of 1953, I became very much aware of the Manx language, Manx Gaelic, and the desperate situation it was in then. I was born of Manx parents and brought up in Douglas in the Isle of Man, but, like most other Manx people then, I was only dimly aware that we had our own language. All that changed when, on New Year’s Day 1953, I picked up a Manx newspaper that was in the house and read an article about Douglas Fargher. He was expressing a passionate view that the Manx language had to be saved – he couldn’t understand how Manx people were so dismissive of their own language and ignorant about it. This article had a dra- matic effect on me – I can say it changed my life. I knew straight off somehow that I had to learn Manx. In 1953, I was a pupil at Douglas High School for Boys, with just over two years to go before I possibly left school and went to England to go to uni- versity. There was no university in the Isle of Man - there still isn’t, although things are progressing in that direction now. Amazingly, up until 1992, there 111 JCLL 2010/2011 Stowell was no formal, official teaching of Manx in schools in the Isle of Man.

  • Kiaull Manninagh Jiu 09/20 Culture Vannin Tickets for £10: Evening Concert/Film Local Bandlavakings Athomeinthe Camargue
    wwwwww.m.maannxxmmuusisci.cc.ocmom K I A U L L M A N N I N A G H J I U M A N X M U S I C T O D A Y Mean Fouyir 2020 September MANX MUSIC TODAY New Manx music tutorial videos The first of a new collection of traditional music video tutorials has been launched by Culture Vannin. Part of the Treisht lockdown initiative (Manx Gaelic for ‘hope’), seven established musicians were invited to share their technical knowledge and create instruction films teaching a selection of Manx songs and tunes. As well as Gaelic songs for children and advanced singers, there are Manx tune tutorials for fiddle, whistle and harp. Whistle and flute player Peddyr Cubberley was one of the successful applicants. A renowned performer and composer, Peddyr plays with Mactullagh Vannin, the Peddyr Trad Trio, Croan y Tead, and he is also a founding member of the Tarroo Marroo Ceili Band. He is particularly well known for his tune “Kinnoull”, which has become an international hit performed at the Royal Edinburgh Tattoo. Peddyr said; “I would like to thank Culture Vannin for the opportunity to get involved in playing a further part in helping to keep our traditional Manx culture alive, and to help make it further available by way of the Treisht tutorials.” For his videos, he chose to firstly teach the beginners’ staple, “Smuggler’s Lullaby”, and his own composition, “Nelson’s Tonic”; a simple tune which has gained popularity in recent years after its inclusion on Barrule’s self-titled album.

  • Road Races Act 2015
    ROAD RACES BILL 2015 DEPARTMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE HIGHWAY SERVICES DIVISION Introduction This consultation is designed to invite comments on the Department of Infrastructure’s Road Racing Bill 2015. We welcome your views not only on the specific questions asked, but also on any other aspect of the proposed legislation. With over 100 years of history, road racing is an important part of Manx life. We are proud to be the Road Racing Capital of the World and a centre of road racing excellence. As well as being enjoyed and supported by people on the Isle of Man, road racing is also an important part of the Island’s economy. Thousands of visitors travel to the Island each year to both watch and take part in our motorcycling and rally events. Increasingly, these events are becoming road racing festivals. The courses and rally stages on the Island are known the world over and form part of what keeps the Isle of Man unique. Indirect benefits are not measured, but the worldwide recognition of events such as the TT should not be underestimated. It is important that we remain the centre of the road racing world, and that we protect our road racing heritage into the future by keeping it relevant to the modern world. The Road Races Act 1982 is the legislative instrument under which the Department of Infrastructure (referred to below simply as “DOI”) hands over part of the highway network to third party organisers of racing events. Inevitably, over the last 33 years the 1982 Act has become increasingly out of step with the need of the organisers of motor racing events and the public’s expectations about key safeguards.

(2) On slopes of Slieu Chiarn, Marown (3) Peel Castle is built on it. (4) Ballafreer. In the Isle of Man, St Patrick left behind more of a mark than this, and so the numer of questions could be easily extended. A parish is named after him, there is a church dedicated to his memory, a number of keeils bear his name, as do wells, two of which mark where he first landed on his horse.

Of Demolition and Reconstruction: a Comparative Reading of Manx Cultural Revivals Breesha Maddrell, Centre for Manx Studies, University of Liverpool Abstract This paper accesses Manx cultural survival by examining the work of one of the most controversial of Manx cultural figures, Mona Douglas, alongside one of the most well loved, T.E. Brown. It uses the literature in the Isle of Man over the period 1880-1980 as a means of identifying attitudes toward two successive waves of cultural survival and revival. Through a reading of Brown's Prologue to the first series of Fo'c's'le Yarns, 'Spes Altera', "another hope", 1896, and Douglas' 'The Tholtan' – which formed part of her last collection of poetry, Island Magic, published in 1956 – the differing nationalist and revivalist roles of the two authors are revealed.

    A.W. MOORE MANX BALLADS AND MUSIC (1896) WORKING GUIDE (8) PERSONALIA K CHIOLLAGH BOOKS 2017 Vers. 1.0 A.W. MOORE MANX BALLADS AND MUSIC (1896) 1 introduction Whilst A.W. Moore’s name appears on the title page to Manx Ballads and Music, the work involved in its compilation and editing was not his alone as he acknowledged within its pages. For starters, he did no collecting himself, drawing instead on the efforts of Henry Bridson in the main, along with Annie Gell, Elizabeth Jane Graves, and John Edward Kelly. The tunes that appeared in harmonised form were prepared by Mary Louisa Wood and Edith Lilian McKnight and overseen by Colin Brown. A number of individuals submitted tunes and texts seemingly from their own recollection, namely Robert Henry Bridson (referred to as Harry Bridson), Thomas Edward Brown, William Cashen, Margaret Frissel Ferrier, Robert Kerruish, Rev. John Kewley, and James Bell Nicholson. Texts were passed to Moore by John Rhys and Karl Roeder. William John Cain edited the Manx of the texts, T.E. Brown wrote the preface, and John Miller Nicholson provided the illustrations. And, finally, there are the singers themselves: John Bridson, John Cain, Philip Cain, John Christian Cannell?, Henry Cregeen, Thomas Crellin, James Gawne, Mary Ann Gawne, William Harrison, Thomas Kermode, John Lace, John Quayle, and Thomas Wynter. To round matters off, there was Margaret Kelly, the source of an anecdote about Thurot and Elliot, and a ‘Miss Teare’ who was the source of a children’s rhyme, and to end with the unnamed singer who sang Lhigey, Lhigey for E.J.
