The book’s reappearance, after its 1930 banning by Irish Censorship of Publications Board for its discussion of themes like priestly lust, greed, and murder, is thanks to publishers Nuascéalta Teo and the Tom and Liam O’Flaherty Society, a group formed to promote the two Connemara-born writers. A scathing portrayal of the Catholic Church and Ireland’s ‘gombeen’ post-1922 ruling class, the book tells the story of Ramon Mor Costello, a businessman who dominates the fictional town of Barra. Ramon is based heavily on Connemara-born Galway businessman Mairtín Mór MacDonogh, a relative of O’Flaherty’s and a fascinating figure who NUIG postdoctoral candidate Dr. Jackie Uí Chionna is currently writing a biography of. The launch, which attracted a crowd of well over fifty people, was first addressed by Councillor and long-time Gaeltacht activist Seosamh Ó Cuaig, who Members of the Tom & Liam O’Flaherty Societyfrom left to right Úna McMahon, Kathleen McMahon (Treasurer), argued that the previously neglected book is indis- Renate Mitchell, Jenny Farrell and Celine Seoighe (commit- pensible in telling the story of the Southern Irish tee members).

He paid tribute to Margaretta D’Arcy of the Tom and Liam O’Flaherty Society for first raising the idea of re-releasing the book, noting that it was arguably Tom and not the much better known Liam NUIG History Society who was the more impressive of the two brothers and that he hoped the society would help increase knowledge of Tom’s work.

  • Catholic Power and the Irish City: Modernity, Religion, and Planning in Galway, 1944-49
    Word count: 11,702 (excluding footnotes) 17,288 (including footnotes) Catholic power and the Irish city: modernity, religion, and planning in Galway, 1944-49 That fine, out-stepping fellow on the other side? A bishop, stranger, who’ll stand no nonsense. When a City Council and its architect chose a site for a new school, a site he didn’t like and thought unsuitable, he soon and short told them to build it on a site of his choosing; and when the Council decided to keep to their own selection, he soon and short told them they were behaving in the Continental manner of disrespect for their priests; a gentle warning that sent them running to vote as one man, bar the architect, for the holy bishop’s choice. The bishop’s ring rang the bell. — Seán O’Casey, Autobiographies II (London, 1963), 639. ‘Imagine,’ bellowed the Unionist politician Walter Topping at a rally in Belfast in 1949, ‘the local Roman Catholic bishop being allowed to dictate the policy of the Belfast Corporation on matters which involved only traffic safety and public health.’1 The dispute Topping refers to was the Galway ‘school site controversy.’2 For the playwright Seán O’Casey in his enigmatic Autobiographies, the outcome was all too predictable: ‘the bishop’s ring rang the bell.’ Yet O’Casey’s recollections are selective and fail to capture the complexity of the issues involved; his was a hackneyed view of clerical power in modern Ireland. This article uses this dispute to draw out two key arguments: first, that existing scholarship on the Catholic Church in Ireland in the mid-twentieth century overstates its hegemonic power, 1 Belfast Newsletter, 2 September 1949.

The Civil War in Galway came to an end because there was little appetite for further bloodshed in the face of ruthless determination by the Free State, or the pro-treatyites, to stamp out the anti-treaty forces. The Free State government warned that anyone carrying weapons other than the National Army, would be shot. Eleven Galway anti-treatyites were shot by firing squad. On January 20 1923 Martin Bourke, Stephen Joyce, Herbert Collins, Michael Walsh, and Thomas Hughes, all attached to the North Galway IRA Brigade, were arrested and executed in Athlone. On February 19 eighteen volunteers were arrested in Annaghdown, and brought to Galway gaol. It was given out that all were ‘well armed’. Even though it was expected that all, or a number of them, would be shot, nothing happened. In March a meeting of the commanding officers of the local anti-Treaty Forces was held in Roscommon. They were told to each select one target for attack. There wasn’t much enthusiasm to prolong the war. The leader of the 2nd Western Brigade of the IRA, Comdt Thomas Maguire, commented that that during the War of Independence “The British were the enemy, the old enemy; there was a certain pride in having the ability to attack them. That feeling was totally absent in the Civil War.” Privacy Card Payment Terminals Ireland - Point of Sale for Merchants Ad Multiple benets including processing speed, operational eciencies and… ecomm365.com Learn more However, following the Roscommon meeting there was one attack on Headford barracks.

  • Iar Connaught & Anglo-Norman County Galway
    Norman Galway & Iar Connaught The flight of the O’Flahertys, Lords of Moy Seola to Iar Connaught. By the very Rev. J. Fahey, P.P., V.G.. Local Secretary, South Galway. FROM the fifth century the chieftains of Muintur Murchada were lords of the fertile plains of Moy Soela. [1] Their tribe name was derived from Morough, the son of Maonach, Prince of Moy Soela, who died A.D. 891. This Morough was a descendant of Eochy, monarch of Ireland, through Duagh, the “ sweet-tongued,” who is referred to as the “ third Christian king of Connaught.” In later years the lords of Moy Soela took the name of O’Flaherty, and for a considerable period held a position of pre-eminence amongst the chieftains of the Western Province. They were near kinsmen of the O’Connors. The O’Hallorans, lords of Clan-Feargail, the MacConrys, and the clans of Dealbna Feadha beyond the Corrib, were their relatives, and seem to have ruled those districts as subordinate chieftains. Hence we find that, in the tenth century, and after, the O’Flahertys are frequently styled Chieftains of Iar Connaught, as well as Lords of Moy Soela. Our annalists record the death of Archad, son of Murchad, chief of Moy Soela, A.D. 943, but we find that he is also styled “ Lord of Iar Connaught.” But though exercising a paramount influence over their kindred chieftains in the adjoining territories, the territory of Moy Soela, over which they were recognized lords, was by no means extensive. It extended from the village of Clare Galway to Tuam ; and from near Athenry to the shores of the Corrib.

But, the agrarian society of the County Galway Gaeltacht (designated Irish-speaking region) remained a stronghold of the Irish language despite British imperialists. The Survival of Irish-Gaelic addresses the survival of the native language in the Galway Gaeltacht. While my work has identified several reasons for the survival in this one specific region, this presentation focuses upon interrelated explanations.
