  • Irish Travellers, the Cinema and (Anti-)Traveller Racism
    GRUNERT FILM JOURNAL 1 (2010) Between discrimination and glorification: Irish Travellers, the cinema and (anti-)Traveller racism Andrea GRUNERT University of Applied Sciences, Bochum, Germany “There’s a bit of a Traveller in everybody of us,” says John Riley, the male protagonist in Mike Newell’s Into the West (UK/IRL, 1992), to his twelve-year-old son Tito, who has asked him whether the Travellers are Cowboys or Indians. This evasive answer is matched by the film’s happy ending, which masks the fact that the film presents the Travellers as Ireland’s Indians: an excluded and forgotten minority living on the social margins. Today an estimated 23,000 Travellers live in the Republic of Ireland, 15,000 in Great Britain and 7,000 in the United States of America. Their Irish origins have been the object of speculation. Some writers trace them back to landowners made homeless during Cromwell’s campaign in Ireland or during the Great Famine of the mid-nineteenth century; others argue that Travellers have dwelt in Ireland since the Middle Ages. These nomads have their roots in Ireland and must be distinguished from Gypsies, even if they share many similar customs. In the past, they played an important role as messengers in isolated rural areas. The term “tinker,” which today has negative connotations, refers to one of their main occupations, tinkering. Industrialisation and modern technology have destroyed this economic basis of their life. Having been forced to adapt to new social Page 1 GRUNERT FILM JOURNAL 1 (2010) and economic conditions, Irish Travellers or Pavee1, as they now call themselves, have found new occupations such as collecting scrap.

  • Writing the History of Women's Programming at Telifís Éireann: A
    Alphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media no. 20, 2020, pp. 38–53 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33178/alpha.20.04 Writing the History of Women’s Programming at Telifís Éireann: A Case Study of Home for Tea Morgan Wait Abstract: The history of women’s programming at the Irish television station Teilifís Éireann has long been neglected within the historiography of Irish television. Seminal studies within the field have focused quite specifically on the institutional history of the Irish station and have not paid much attention to programming. This is particularly true in regard to women’s programmes. This paper addresses this gap in the literature by demonstrating a methodological approach for reconstructing this lost segment of programming using the example of Home for Tea, a women’s magazine programme that ran on TÉ from 1964 to 1966. It was the network’s flagship women’s programme during this period but is completely absent from within the scholarship on Irish television. Drawing on the international literature on the history of women’s programmes this paper utilises press sources to reconstruct the Home for Tea’s content and discourse around it. It argues that, though Home for Tea has been neglected, a reconstruction of the programme illuminates wider themes of the everyday at Teilifís Éireann, such as a middle-class bias and the treatment of its actors. As such, its reconstruction, and that of other similar programmes, are exceptionally important in moving towards a more holistic history of the Irish station. In 1964, a woman from Rush wrote to the RTV Guide with a complaint about Irish national broadcaster Telifís Éireann’s schedule.

  • Maple and Shamrock: Seeking a Strategy for Survival in the Audiovisual Jungle
    Maple and Shamrock: seeking a strategy for survival in the audiovisual jungle. Colum Kenny Context Attempting to assess what the future might hold for Irish broadcasters and producers, especially in the light of digital and multimedia developments and of increasing competition, I recently paid a visit to Ontario and Quebec, two adjacent provinces of Canada. It is a country where audiovisual matters have long been taken seriously. Canada's proximity to the U.S. 'elephant', as that neighbour is sometimes known, concentrates the northern state's collective mind on survival strategies. Previous trips to Canada, including attendance at the Toronto Film Festival and participation as a guest in the Banff Television Festival in Alberta, had induced in the author an admiration for the practical ways in which Canadians have responded to audiovisual challenges. In contrast, Irish broadcasting developments have been stunted by bad planning and poor preparation and marked by an absence of clear strategic focus. Policy has been eschewed in favour of politics and opportunities to build up the kind of audiovisual sector we might have had have been lost. It was at Ottawa, in September 1948, that a visiting Taoiseach, John A. Costello, proclaimed for the first time his own government's intention of declaring Ireland a republic. His successors might consider another visit, specifically to see how a relatively small country can articulate successfully an elaborate media policy. Canada enjoys a remarkably sophisticated system of regulation, licensing and support which manages to keep scores of television stations and hundreds of radio services on the air in a country of under 30 million people.

It is, first of all, an account of why people tell stories. It is an exploration of what has been at stake in the whole, long and complex history of storytelling, stretching from the voices of the ancient bards to the signals of space age satellites. It is, in the second instance, a story about why particular people have told particular stories at a particular time in the history of a particular society. The Irish people have always been renowned as storytellers. This is the story of Irish storytelling in the television era. Although storytelling would seem to be a universal activity, fundamental to the human condition, it has by no means been a static one. It has not been the same for all times. It is an activity that has undergone enormous transformations.

There is no real reason other than perhaps an ideological one which is preventing the series from placing either a traveller or unemployed character at the centre of the programme… (Devereux, 1998: 124). In his conclusion, the financial difficulties faced by RTÉ merely occupy the background and do not explain the ‘ideological decisions’ made by RTÉ producers (Devereux, 1998: 146). RTÉ television is described as ideological, that is, it ‘facilitates… the continuation of capitalism’ (1998:146).
