Duncan, a member of the Bancroft staff who was in London to oversee the microfilming of docu­ ments in the Public Record Office, crossed the Channel to Paris to conduct an interview with Alice B. Toklas, an interview which would become the first in the Library's Oral History program. During this same week Duncan journeyed on to the village of Lardy in Seine-et-Oise, seeking the villa of the late Viola Rodgers, a California-born journalist who had died in 1944, where he hoped to find her correspondence from Frank Norris and a file of letters written to her by the Anglo-Irish novelist, George Moore. The letters from Norris had disappeared, pre­ sumably during the war, but those from Moore had indeed survived the German oc­ cupation of the villa; they were not then available to The Bancroft Library. Now, twenty-four years later, it is good to an­ nounce that all one hundred and thirty-two letters have come to the Library as the gift of an anonymous donor. George Moore, perhaps best known for his novels Esther Waters and Evelyn Inness and for his memoirs including A Story teller s Holiday and Memoirs of My Dead Life, studied painting in Paris from 1872 to 1882. While in the French capital he read deeply in current literature and when he returned to England and to a career of fiction he be­ gan to utilize the realistic and naturalistic techniques of Flaubert, Zola, and others.

  • Urban Planning, Irish Modernism, and Dublin
    Notes 1 Urbanizing the Revival: Urban Planning, Irish Modernism, and Dublin 1. Arguably Andrew Thacker betrays a similar underlying assumption when he writes of ‘After the Race’: ‘Despite the characterisation of Doyle as a rather shallow enthusiast for motoring, the excitement of the car’s “rapid motion through space” is clearly associated by Joyce with a European modernity to which he, as a writer, aspired’ (Thacker 115). 2. Wirth-Nesher’s understanding of the city, here, is influenced by that of Georg Simmel, whereby the city, while divesting individuals of a sense of communal belonging, also affords them a degree of personal freedom that is impossible in a smaller community (Wirth-Nesher 163). Due to the lack of anonymity in Joyce’s Dublin, an indicator of its pre-urban or non-urban status, this personal freedom is unavailable to Joyce’s characters. ‘There are almost no strangers’ in Dubliners, she writes, with the exceptions of those in ‘An Encounter’ and ‘Araby’ (164). She then enumerates no less than seven strangers in the collection, arguing however that they are ‘invented through the transformation of the familiar into the strange’ (164). 3. Wirth-Nesher’s assumptions about Dublin’s status as a city are not really necessary to the focus of her analysis, which emphasizes the importance Joyce’s early work places on the ‘indeterminacy of the public and private’ and its effects on the social lives of the characters (166). That she chooses to frame this analysis in terms of Dublin’s ‘exacting the price of city life and in turn offering the constraints of a small town’ (173) reveals forcefully the pervasiveness of this type of reading of Joyce’s Dublin.

Stephens here makes use of traditional motifs. for the purpose of creating a psychological study. These stories are no doubt an attempt at something quite distinct from what actually came to absorb his mind - Irish saga material. It may to my mind be regretted that he did not write more short stories of the same kind as the ones in Etched in Moonlight, the most poignant of which is "Hunger," a starvation story, the tragedy of which is intensified by the lucid, objective style. Unfortunately the scope of this article does not allow a treat­ ment of the rest of Stephens' work, which I hope to discuss in another essay. I have here dealt with some aspects of the two middle periods of his career, and tried to give significant glimpses of his life in Paris, and his .subsequent years in Dublin. In 1915 he left wartime Paris to return to a revolutionary Dub­ lin, and in 1925 he left an Ireland suffering from the after­ effects of the Civil War.

Symons and Print Culture: Journalist, Critic, Book Maker Laurel Brake Birkbeck, University of London My intent here is to explore the range and ingenuity of Arthur Symons’s participation in print culture, and to probe how he managed his bread and butter work as a journalist, critic, and book maker. My focus is his article ‘The Painting of the Nineteenth Century’, in its differing functions and forms over a four-year period (1903-1906), as a periodical book review and a chapter on painting that appeared in Studies in Seven Arts, a book comprised of articles from the press.1 What initially drew me to this article was its evidence of Symons’s sustained support for Simeon Solomon, a queer British artist from a London-based family of Jewish painters, in the decade that followed the Wilde trials, and among the inhibitions they fostered.2 Nearly a generation younger than Solomon, Symons (1865-1945) was born just as Solomon (1840-1905) began his career. Solomon appears in both the 1903 and 1906 versions of Symons’s review, and in between a newspaper review of an exhibition of Solomon’s work in 1905/1906.

  • Lady Gregory and Yeats Symbiotic Creativity
    LADY GREGORY AND YEATS SYMBIOTIC CREATIVITY * DY GREGORY, insofar as she is known, is known primarily as the patron of Yeats. As such she is regarded with that mixed gratitude and denigration felt for someone performing an ordi- nary and unskilled job and expecting some special recognition. George Moore gives this description of her instructions for his care of Yeats when Yeats once went to spend a few days with him collaborating on a play: ... I must be careful not to overwork him, and that it would be well not to let him go more than two hours without food—a glass of milk, or, better still, a cup of beef tea in the forenoon, and half an hour after lunch he was to have a glass of sherry and a biscuit . .x During Yeats' early visits to Coole Park, he was so rundown that, as he wrote, "The toil of dressing in the morning exhausted me, and Lady Gregory began to send me cups of soup when I was called."2 There is obviously something ridiculous about anyone appearing before posterity asking for special recognition because of outstanding service providing cups of soup and platters of biscuits. Lady Gregory did much more. From 1896 when Yeats was thirty-two until his marriage in 1917, he spent every summer resting and writing poetry at Coole Park. He often spent more than the summers. As Lady Gregory's granddaughter reports: There was a large bed of sedum in the flower garden, by the first vinery; in the summer it was alive with butterflies and I can remember Mamma [Lady Gregory's daughter-in-law] once saying that sedum flowered all the year round and while it was in flower Yeats would be at Coole.3 Yeats himself said of the relationship, "I doubt if I should have done much with my life but for her firmness and care." In 1909 when she 1 George Moore, Ave, Hail and Farewell (New York: Appleton, 1920), p.

Gonzalez: Paralysis and Exile in George Moore's A Drama in Muslin Paralysis and Exile in George Moore's A Drama in Muslin by ALEXANDER G. GONZALEZ VER the years much has been written about James Joyce's use of O paralysis as a major symbol for spiritual inertia and about his use of exile as the means for Stephen Dedalus to deal with Ireland's inhibit­ ing atmosphere in general. Naturally, Joyce wrote about the class he knew best-Ireland's emerging middle class in the early twentieth cen­ tury. George Moore was interested in these same themes, especially as he saw them reflected in his own class, Ireland's dying, anachronistic as­ cendancy in the early 1880's-the upper class of a society still essentially feudal in nature. In A Drama in Muslin 1 Moore shows us paralysis in Ireland roughly twenty years before, Joyce was to do so, and in Alice Barton, the novel's heroine, gives us a worthy predecessor for Joyce's Dedalus. The primary purpose of this essay, however, is not to compare Moore's work to Joyce's; rather, it is to affirm the worth and intensity of what may actually be Moore's best novel, and certainly a novel whose value goes generally unrecognized.

  • A Mayo Uilleann Piper at the Cape of Good Hope (1845) - Seán Donnelly
    From Croagh Patrick to Table Mountain: A Mayo Uilleann Piper at the Cape of Good Hope (1845) - Seán Donnelly Between 1848 and 1853 the English artist, (John) Thomas Baines (1820–75), took part in several expeditions into the interior of Africa from the Cape of Good Hope. In July 1849 he met a Scottish settler in the Baviaans River Valley, Eastern Cape, who played a number of musical instruments, including the Irish union (later uilleann) pipes: The evening was spent in listening to several of the sweet old Scottish melodies played with much taste and feeling by Mr. Ainslie upon the Irish bagpipes, which, as being less likely to get out of order, he prefers to those of his own country, and beside which, he also handled with considerable skill the accordion and some other instruments.1 By the time Baines met Ainslie, at least one Irish piper was already pursuing a professional career at the Cape of Good Hope. He also had a Scottish link through his employer, Hamilton Ross (1774–1853), who was born to Scottish parents in Co. Galway. Ross had come out to the Cape in 1796, an officer in the Scots Brigade during the first British occupation, 1796–1803.2 He fell in love with Catherine Elizabeth van den Berg (1781–1843), the daughter of a rich Dutch merchant. Her father opposed the match, wishing his daughter to enter an arranged marriage, so she eloped with Ross when his regiment left for India in September 1798. Having married in Madras in January 1799, the couple returned in 1801 to the Cape, where Ross retired on half-pay in 1803.

  • Introduction to W. B. Yeats, Where There Is Nothing and the Unicorn from the Stars: Manuscript Materials (Cornell Yeats Series) by Wim Van Mierlo
    1 Introduction to W. B. Yeats, Where There is Nothing and The Unicorn from the Stars: Manuscript Materials (Cornell Yeats Series) by Wim Van Mierlo I Yeats’s summer in 1901 was, as usual, a busy one. Having returned from seeing F. R. Benson’s production of Richard III in Stratford-upon-Avon in April, he lectured on “Magic” on May 4 to the Fellowship of the Three Kings, the society he had cofounded for the study of mysticism, at 8 Adelphi Terrace in London. He formally engaged A. P. Watt as his agent, visited George Moore in Dublin from May 9 to 20, and repaired to Coole to complete work on his long poem, “Baile and Aillinn,” over the summer. His business with Moore was to discuss plans for the Irish Lit- erary Theatre, but while Yeats was staying at 4 Ely Place, he and Moore turned their attention back to Diarmuid and Grania, which Benson’s company had finally agreed to stage, and made some “great improvements” to the second act (CL 3, 70). His struggles with Moore over the writing of the play were for the time being over. Moore, who had just traded London for Dublin to join the Irish Renaissance movement, mustered an unimpeded enthusiasm for anything to do with the nationalist project, and the two men got on unusually amicably. In this mood, Moore wrote to Yeats on July 3 with an idea for a new play that they could develop together (NLI 8777[1]). Yeats responded positively, for he wrote to his father: “I have also plans for a new play with Moore, a religeous Don Quixote, which may or may not be carried out” (CL 3, 87).
