  • Cato Street Brochure
    CATO STREET AND THE REVOLUTIONARY TRADITION IN BRITAIN AND IRELAND 12th-13th September 2017 University of Sheffield 1 CONTENTS Introduction 3 Keynote Speakers 4 Conference Schedule 5 Abstracts 9 The Committee 15 2 Five men were executed at Newgate on 1 May 1820 for their part in an attempt to assassinate the British Prime Minister, Lord Liverpool, and his cabinet of ministers. The plotters envisaged that they would lead an insurrection across London in the aftermath of their ‘tyrannicide’. The plot is usually referred to as the ‘Cato Street Conspiracy’ after the street in London in which the revolutionaries were arrested. The conspiracy has received surprisingly little scholarly attention, and there has been a tendency among those who have examined Cato Street to dismiss it as an isolated, forlorn, foolhardy and – ultimately – unimportant event. The violent intent of the conspirators sits uncomfortably with notions of what it was (and is) to be English or British. It even sits beyond the pale of ‘mainstream’ radical history in Britain, which tends to be framed in terms of evolution rather than revolution. Even within a revolutionary framework, Cato Street can be discussed as the fantasy of isolated adventurists who had no contact with, or influence upon, ‘the masses’. This conference will examine the Cato Street Conspiracy through a number of different lenses. These perspectives will shed new light on the ‘plot’ itself, its contemporary significance, and its importance (or otherwise) in the longer history of radicalism and revolutionary movements. The Organising Committee of Cato Street 3 Keynote Speakers Sophia A.

  • Easter 1916 and America
    UCDscholarcast Series 6: (Spring 2012) ________________________________ The UCD / Notre Dame Lectures ________________________________ Series Editor: Sean O’Brien General Editor: P.J. Mathews ©UCDscholarcast 2 Robert Schmuhl ‘All Changed, Changed Utterly’: Easter 1916 and America Historically, politically, and symbolically, the Easter Rising is Ireland’s answer to America’s Fourth of July. In both cases, independence from Great Britain took several years to achieve, required bloody warfare, and tested people’s allegiances. But the Rising and July 4th mark moments of no return, tipping points creating new realities, defining departures from the past. The enduring line of W.B. Yeats—‘All changed, changed utterly’—would not be read by the general public for over four years (his poem, ‘Easter, 1916’, was published simultaneously in England and America in 1920). However, those words and his haunting refrain—‘A terrible beauty is born’—were actually written right after the Rising and the subsequent executions. Yeats knew the significance of what had just happened, but neither Yeats nor many of his contemporaries would have realized then what we understand in retrospect: that the roots of the Rising grew to a large extent in American soil, with America’s reaction crucial to determining the consequences of the Rising. That’s why our subtitle is ‘Easter 1916 and America.’ To be even more precise, though, a sub-subtitle for this historical disquisition might be: ‘The Plotter, The Poet, and The President’, because our principal focus will be on three figures with Irish and American backgrounds who played distinct and significant roles in 1916 and what followed.

  • Zjkcilitants of the 1860'S: the Philadelphia Fenians
    zJkCilitants of the 1860's: The Philadelphia Fenians HE history of any secret organization presents a particularly difficult field of inquiry. One of the legacies of secret societies Tis a mass of contradictions and pitfalls for historians. Oaths of secrecy, subterfuge, aliases, code words and wildly exaggerated perceptions conspire against the historian. They add another vexing dimension to the ordinary difficulty of tracing and evaluating docu- mentary sources.1 The Fenian Brotherhood, an international revo- lutionary organization active in Ireland, England, and the United States a century ago, is a case in point. Founded in Dublin in 1858, the organization underwent many vicissitudes. Harried by British police and agents, split by factionalism, buffeted by failures, reverses, and defections, the Fenians created a vivid and romantic Irish nationalist legend. Part of their notoriety derived from spectacular exploits that received sensational publicity, and part derived from the intrepid character of some of the leaders. Modern historians credit the Fenians with the preservation of Irish national identity and idealism during one of the darkest periods of Irish national life.2 Although some general studies of the Fenians have been written, there are few studies of local branches of the Brotherhood. Just how such a group operating in several countries functioned amid prob- lems of hostile surveillance, difficulties of communication, and 1 One student of Irish secret societies, who wrote a history of the "Invincibles," a terrorist group of the i88o's, found the evidence "riddled with doubt and untruth, vagueness and confusion."

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. The Terrorist Cell: An Historical and Evolutionary Study of Irish Terrorist Cells c. 1881 – 1896 A thesis presented in full fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Ph.D In Defence and Strategic Studies at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. David T.H. Osborne 2013 Abstract Within the field of terrorism studies little is understood as to how and why terrorist cells change over time and place. This is a complex question, which has evolutionary implications. That is, where do terror cells come from and why, once formed, do some succeed and some fail. To answer these questions this study uses an evolutionary methodology to analyse Victorian-era terror cells between 1881 and 1896. This was done by taking specific concepts of evolution including evolutionary variations, inheritance, diversity and selection, to model the evolutionary history of terrorist cells over time and place. In deriving this model six main evolutionary concepts were found, which were instrumental in both the planned and unplanned evolution of terrorist cells. This included, identifying adaptive characteristics that were crucial in a cell’s ability to survive and operate within a multifaceted landscape. Additional findings from this study uncovered the complex inter-dependent relationships that exist between terror cells and actors in the landscape, which resulted in uncovering sources that facilitated the evolution of cells.

  • The Black and Tans: British Police in the First Irish War, 1920-21
    THE BLACK AND TANS THE BLACK AND TANS: BRITISH POLICE IN THE FIRST IRISH WAR, 1920-21 By DAVID LEESON, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University ©Copyright by David Leeson, August 2003 11 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY McMaster University (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Black and Tans: British Police in the First Irish War, 1920-21 AUTHOR: David Leeson, B.A., M.A. SUPERVISOR: Professor R. A. Rempel NUMBER OF PAGES: 264 lll ABSTRACT Over ten thousand Britons fought as police in the First Irish War ( 1920-21 ). Most of these British police were ex-soldiers, veterans of the Great War and members of the Royal Irish Constabulary (RfC), called 'Black and Tans' for their mixed uniforms of dark police green and military khaki. Ex-officers joined a separate force, the Auxiliary Division (ADRIC), a special emergency gendarmerie, heavily armed and organized in military-style companies. Pitted against the guerrillas of the Irish Republican Army (IRA), the Black and Tans and Auxiliaries took many 'reprisals', assassinating Irish republicans and burning their homes and shops. As a consequence, their name became a byword for crime and violence, and the spectre of 'black-and-tannery' has haunted Ireland ever since. This dissertation uses evidence from both British and Irish archives and from British newspapers to study the British police and their behaviour in the First Irish War. According to legend the Black and Tans and Auxiliaries were ex-convicts and psychopaths, hardened by prison and crazed by war.

  • O'donovan Rossa, He Kept the Dream Alive
    Book Review Fortunate Son By David Marlett Fortunate Son is an historical novel revolving on the actual events encompassing the case of Annesley v. Anglesea (1743), which was one of the longest trials in Irish history. James Annesley (1715-1760), a peerage claimant, was born at Dunmore, County Wexford, the son of Arthur Annesley, 4th Baron Altham, the identity of his mother being of controversy. This was to furnish the focus in the lawsuit in the Irish court of Exchequer (a senior court of common pleas, one of the four courts which gave their name to the building known as the Four Courts in Dublin). Richard Annesley, Arthur’s brother, proclaimed himself the rightful heir to the peerage, due to the issue as to whom was James’ mother, either Mary Sheffield, the second wife of Arthur, or Joan Lundy, a maidservant. Richard arranged for the kidnapping of James and his transportation to the American colonies as an indentured servant. The story moves along at a brisk pace combining a blend of historical fact and details of adventure and peril with a bit of courtroom drama. One of the more interesting legal aspects of the case and the story is that the trial remains the basis of modern “attorney-client privilege.” After returning to England, and while perfecting his claims, James accidentally killed a poacher. Richard seized on the opportunity and tried to hire a leading criminal lawyer to prosecute James for murder and offering 10,000 pounds to get James hanged. The lawyer refused to accept the case. In the subsequent suit for title to the contested property, James called the lawyer to testify about Richards’ communication with him to show that Richard was conscious of James’ claims of title.

  • The Lighter Side of My Official Life
    THE LIGHTER SIDE OF MY OFFICIAL LIFE SIR ROBERT ANDERSON G-B LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA. Class THE LIGHTER SIDE OF MY OFFICIAL LIFE THE LIGHTER SIDE OF MY OFFICIAL LIFE BY SIR ROBERT ANDERSON K.C.B., LL.D. HODDER AND STOUGHTON NEW YORK AND LONDON PREFACE A BOOK of this kind needs no preface, save to express the author's acknowledgments to Messrs. William Blackwood and Sons for sanctioning the republication of articles which recently appeared in Blackwood"s Magazine. If, notwithstanding the author's estimate of these articles, as indicated in his opening sen- tences, he now reissues them in book form, he does so in response to appeals from many quarters. It has been pressed upon him, more- over, that they must be of exceptional interest, seeing that they were made the subject of "a " full-dress debate in Parliament ; and that, too, at a time when opportunity could not be found for any adequate discussion of great questions of national importance and gravity. 225374 CONTENTS CHAPTER I PAGE Scheme of the book Some personal details French versions of nursery rhymes Life in Trinity College, Dublin "The Irish Question ": Lord Morris's definition of it The College Historical Society A mock criminal trial The Irish Bench and Bar, reminiscences and incidents The Fenian trials in Ireland and in England contrasted . 1-16 CHAPTER II Entrance into Government work The "Fenian " Rising" and the "Clerkenwell explosion of 1867 Panic caused in London: illustrative incidents Interview with a clairvoyant informant of Lord Derby's The Birdcage Walk mystery of January, 1868: panic in London ...
