  • Book Review | Markievicz: Prison Letters and Rebel Writings Page 1 of 2
    British Politics and Policy at LSE: Book Review | Markievicz: Prison Letters and Rebel Writings Page 1 of 2 Book Review | Markievicz: Prison Letters and Rebel Writings In Markievicz: Prison Letters and Rebel Writings, Lindie Naughton offers a new edition of the collection of letters written by Constance Markievicz, who was a political activist, an Irish revolutionary and the first woman MP. Originally published in the 1930s as The Prison Letters of Countess Markievicz, this new edition presents the letters as they were as well as previously unpublished letters, mostly written to friends and family, including her sister, Eva Gore-Booth, during and in between periods of imprisonment. Alongside offering Markievicz’s perspective on early-twentieth-century Irish politics, the collection provides sometimes surprising insight into the interior life of a figure often overshadowed by her controversial reputation, writes Sharon Crozier-De Rosa. Markievicz: Prison Letters and Rebel Writings. Lindie Naughton (ed.). Merrion Press. 2018. ‘Dearest Old Darling’, Constance Markievicz (1868–1927) wrote to her sister, Eva Gore-Booth, ‘It was such a heaven-sent joy, seeing you. It was a new life, a resurrection, though I knew all the time that you’d try and see me, even though I’d been fighting and you hate it all so and think killing so wrong.’ So begins a series of almost 100 letters between the sisters while Constance was incarcerated in Dublin’s Mountjoy Prison for her leading role in the failed insurrection against British rule in Ireland in April 1916. In many ways, this was an unremarkable utterance on the part of a quite remarkable woman to her similarly remarkable sister.

  • CUMANN NA MBAN 1913-26 Redressing the Balance
    ¿ . o . fi^zy National University of Ireland St Patrick’s College, Maynooth CUMANN NA MBAN 1913-26 Redressing the Balance by ANN MATTHEWS IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF M.A. DEPARTMENT OF MODERN HISTORY ST PATRICK’S COLLEGE, MAYNOOTH HEAD OF DEPARTMENT: Professor R.V. Comerford: Supervisor: Dr Dympna Me Loughlin. 1995. Cumann na mBan 1913-1926. Redressing the balance. Cumann na mBan was formally inaugurated in April 1914. Discussion on an informal level about starting such an organisation had been taking place from November 1913. The name Cumann na mBan was translated at this time in the English language as The Irishwomen’s Council. An investigation of the Primary sources available on Cumann na mBan indicates that the histories previously written do not present a balanced picture of this organisation between the years' 1913-1926. The word balance is used here in the sense that previous histories of the organisation tend to be of unsubtle consensus. The sub title of this work is Redressing the Balance. This subtitle is the kernel of the findings of this thesis. The story of Cumann na mBan is complex. It required a comprehensive reading of available Primary source material and a study of the Secondary sources to read what has been previously written about the organisation.. Cumann na mBan like Sinn Fein, the Irish Volunteers and the IRA was an integral part of the Nationalist Republican movement from 1913 to 1926. The general history books tend to treat Cumann na mBan as a minor aspect of the activities during this period.
