Reading the Irish Woman: Studies in Cultural Encounter and Exchange, 1714–1960
Reading the Irish Woman: Studies in Cultural Encounter and Exchange, 1714–1960 Meaney, Reading the Irish Woman.indd 1 15/07/2013 12:33:33 Reappraisals in Irish History Editors Enda Delaney (University of Edinburgh) Maria Luddy (University of Warwick) Reappraisals in Irish History offers new insights into Irish history, society and culture from 1750. Recognising the many methodologies that make up historical research, the series presents innovative and interdisciplinary work that is conceptual and interpretative, and expands and challenges the common understandings of the Irish past. It showcases new and exciting scholarship on subjects such as the history of gender, power, class, the body, landscape, memory and social and cultural change. It also reflects the diversity of Irish historical writing, since it includes titles that are empirically sophisticated together with conceptually driven synoptic studies. 1.

UCD Armistice Day Commemorations Contents Features UCD Armistice Day Philosophy at the Building Better Predictions 4-5 Commemorations 9 Crossroads of Civilisation 11 for Prostate Cancer Patients Save our Spark – sign the petition When the presidents of the seven universities launched Ireland’s Future Talent – A Charter for Irish Universities in September through the Irish Universities Association (IUA), they gave a commitment to supporting the objectives set out in the Government’s Higher Education System Performance Framework 2018-2020 in return for urgently required State investment and a sustainable funding model for higher education. EILIS O’BRIEN Director of Communication and Marketing Once again, the universities argued that investing in higher education is needed to achieve the “national ambition”. Their call is supported by IBEC who, in its 2019 budget submission, argued that “the current funding model for higher education is unsustainable”. On this occasion, the IUA augmented its appeal to Government with a public awareness campaign, Save our Spark. The message to the general public is that universities need substantial investment to accommodate the 25,000 additional students entering the university system over the next decade. “We need resources to improve access, to become lifelong learning institutions and to ensure we continue as best in class research and innovation centres. A vibrant, well-funded, fit-for-purpose university sector can drive Ireland’s future. This is what the seven universities through the Irish Universities Association are aiming to achieve”. -

As a young man, I went to Liverpool, and joined the clerical staff of Messrs. Dowdall Bros., Butter Merchants. became a member of the Bootle Branch I of the Gaelic League, where I met Piaras Beaslaoi for the first time. I later joined the Gaelic Athletic Association, eventually being picked to play for Lancashire against Kilkenny in the final of the All-Ireland Hurling Championship in Croke Park in 1905. After this match, when returning to Liverpool on the B. and I. boat, I was approached by Paddy Lively. After a short conversation, during which he explained the aims and objects of the I.R.B., he asked me if I had any religious scruples about becoming a member. I said I had not. There and then, he administered the oath, as we stood by the rails looking out to sea. Many members of the team joined the I.R.B. on that occasion. Most of them were from Liverpool. That was my first experience with intense Irish politics. -

Inspired by the UCD poet Thomas McDonagh and motivated by a desire to create a literary legacy for students, we took the seven signatories of the Proclamation of Irish Independence, added Elizabeth O’Farrell and asked eight writers to create a fifteen minute monologue in response to each of the characters. EILIS O’BRIEN Director of Communication The lineup of writers: Thomas Kilroy, Joseph O’Connor, Éilís Ní and Marketing Dhuibhne, Marina Carr, Emma Donoghue, Hugo Hamilton, Rachel Fehily and of course Frank McGuinness, was signal enough that the work would be of high quality but, when we came to the first reading in December 2015, we knew we had created something extraordinary. The writers and a few colleagues involved in the project gathered in Ardmore House. Director Patrick Mason (an honorary UCD man) decided the reading order and brought the actors along. At the last line of the reading you could have heard a pin drop. -

Nil B.S.M.2 File No. S.1011 Form STATEMENT by Mr. Larry Nugent, The Swan, Athy, Co. Kildare. Chapter 1. FOUNDING OF THE VOLUNTEERS. On Saturday, 8th November, 1913, an article appeared in An Claidheamh Solus and the Leader, advocating the formation of Volunteer Corps. On Saturday, November 15th, 1913, The Evening Telegraph published a news item that a movement was on foot for the formation of a Volunteer Corps. On November 19th, 1913, an advertisement appeared, announcing a meeting to be held in the Round Room, Rotunda, on Tuesday, 25th November, 1913, for the purpose of forming a "All citizens are invited to attend. Volunteer Corps. Further Announcements later." The feelings aroused among the Nationalist population of the City and County of Dublin by the above population were indescribable. In business houses, workshops, offices and various professions, a feeling of comradeship which never previously existed sprung up. Men who had only a nodding acquaintance shook hands when they met in the street. The young men clicked their heels when they met their pals and actually hugged and pulled each other around: all were joining up. Would Tuesday ever come? "A soldier's life is the life for me, A soldier's life so Ireland's free." The Home Rule Bill was being debated in the House of Commons, and let it be understood that outside of the professional politicians, Home Rule meant to the 2. -
