  • The Hand-Loom in Ulster's Post-Famine Linen Industry: the Limits of Mechanization in Textiles' 'Factory Age'
    Textile History, 35 (2), 178-191, 2004 The Hand-Loom in Ulster's Post-Famine Linen Industry: The Limits of Mechanization in Textiles' 'Factory Age' KEVIN J. JAMES This article explores conditions in the Ulster linen trade which sustained hand-loom weaving through the second half of the nineteenth century. In particular, it investigates the role and limits of technology in this process, and the impact of the American Civil War and its aftermath on mechanization. INTRODUCTION The historiography of the Irish litien trade in the second half of the nineteenth cen- tury has focused on its mechanization, while acknowledging the continuing presence of hand-lootn branches in the sector.' Generally, the structure of hand production in the Irish linen sector after 1850 has received less attention than tnechanized weaving, although there is a growing historiography on co-extensive hand- and tnechanized weaving in other branches of textile tnanufacture in the United Kingdotn.^ Partly this neglect of the hand-lootn results frotn greater interest in technological developments which so quickly transformed the spinning sector in the 1820s and 1830s.^ In spin- ning, the displacement of hand production by machine was relatively swift and com- plete — even the small demand in Ireland for super-fine yarn after the 1820s was largely met by imported hand-spun continental varieties.* Indeed, contemporary observers claimed that weaving was developing in the same direction — but their predictions of the hand-loom's obsolescence proved inaccurate and premature. In 1852, for instance, the Belfast and Province of Ulster Directory quoted J. MacAdam's comments in the Joumal of Design in which he predicted the hand-loom's demise: There are many reasons for believing that the future progress of the Irish linen trade will at least keep pace with its past development.

HARTE Department of History Pasold Research Fund University College London London School of Economics Gower Street Houghton Street London WC1E 6BT London WC2A 2AE In the eighteenth century, a great deal of linen was produced in the American colonies. Virtually every farming family spun and wove linen cloth for its own consumption. The production of linen was the most widespread industrial activity in America during the colonial period. Yet at the same time, large amounts of linen were imported from across the Atlantic into the American colonies. Linen was the most important commodity entering into the American trade. This apparently paradoxical situation reflects the importance in pre-industrial society of the production and consumption of the extensive range of types of fabrics grouped together as 'linen*.

  • The Ulster Linen Triangle: an Industrial Cluster Emerging from a Proto-Industrial Region Marcel Boldorf
    3 The Ulster Linen Triangle: An Industrial Cluster Emerging from a Proto-Industrial Region Marcel Boldorf Whether Northern Ireland can really be regarded as an example of a successful transition into the age of industrialization is the subject of some academic debate. Researchers who take the situation of the whole country into consideration, especially focusing on the Great Famine of the 1840s, tend to a hold onto a rather pessimist view. Particularly, when the Irish development is compared to British industrialization, the effects of de-industrialization and the peripheral state are highlighted (Ó’Gráda, 1988). A variation of this is to speak of ‘Ireland’s industrial decline in the nineteenth century, outside eastern Ulster’ (Clarkson, 1996, p.83). This view takes into account the rapid growth of the linen industry in a specific part of Ulster, the northernmost of Ireland’s ancient provinces. One cannot deny that the history of the Irish has been strongly linked to hunger and pauperism, primarily in sectors such as hand-spinning which, at a certain stage, lagged behind in productivity, thus suffering a slump in earnings (Ollerenshaw, 1985, pp.67–9). However, there might be some evidence for more optimism regarding the province of Ulster, especially when its economic performance is compared to other cases in continental Europe (Boldorf, 2003). A full comparison with other European regions is not the intention of this contribution. The optimistic perspective is assumed as a starting point, and the aim is to present a more complete view of Irish industrialization. The chapter’s methodological foundation is built upon the concepts of industrial districts and clusters.

There is a strong emphasis on the World Around Us (WAU) in this thematic Unit, with elements of Personal development and Mutual Understanding (PDMU). Unit 1 focuses on Science and Technology and explores how linen is made. This section examines the flax plant's lifecycle and the properties which make it suitable for being woven into Linen. Unit 2 explores the uses of linen now and in the past reflecting different aspects of the World Around Us curriculum. The characteristics of linen are explored and related to the fabric's uses. Unit 3 looks at the effect that the linen industry has had on the people and places in Northern Ireland reflecting different aspects of the History strand of the WAU. Pupils are encouraged to look for evidence of the linen industry in their local area through buildings and place names. Unit 4 reflects different aspects of the WAU and PDMU curricula and looks at the working conditions in the Victorian Linen mills and compares them to current conditions in sweat shops in developing countries. Unit 5 compares the characteristics of natural and manmade fabrics. Students are encouraged to examine the fabric their clothes are made from and make connections between the properties of the fabrics and their uses. bbc.co.uk/northernireland/forteachers 1 KS2 Linen Thematic Unit Unit 1- How is linen made?

  • The Significance of Gender in the Irish Linen Industry
    Preprint Rural Industry and Uneven Development: The Significance of Gender in the Irish Linen Industry. Jane Gray Department of Sociology and National Institute for Regional and Spatial Analysis National University of Ireland, Maynooth County Kildare, Ireland Tel: +353-1-708 3596 Email: [email protected] Preprint of article published in The Journal of Peasant Studies 20, 4 (July 1993): 590-611 Abstract From the middle of the eighteenth century, the Irish linen industry grew on the basis of unequal relations of exchange between spinning and weaving households. This regional division of labour in turn depended on unequal relations of production between women and men within rural industrial households. The 'proto-industrialization' thesis has tended to obscure this process by focussing on the household as a bounded entity, and by failing to recognize the significance of inequalities within the household production unit. Once gender relations are made central to the thesis, it can be expanded to explain regional differences in rural industrialization and deindustrialization. Introduction In his account of the Irish linen industry, John Horner (1920: 50-51) quotes, on facing pages, two commentaries on the management of time in domestic production, without any apparent sense that they are contradictory. The first is from Benjamin Franklin’s ‘Principles of Trade’: There can be no doubt but all kinds of employment that can be followed without prejudice from interruption; work that can be taken up and laid down often in a day without damage, such as spinning, knitting, weaving, etc., are highly advantageous to a community, because in them may be collected all the produce of these fragments of time, that occur in family business, between the constant and necessary parts of it that usually occupy females, as the time between rising and preparing for breakfast, between breakfast and preparing for dinner, etc.

In the New World, cloth makers and merchants found continu­ ously buoyant demand that more than compensated for the shrinking of traditional markets as mercantilist barriers arose and newly com­ petitive manufacturing centres proliferated across Europe. Shortly before the outbreak of the War of Independence, it has been estimated that about ‘half of all English exports of silk goods, printed cotton and linen goods, and flannels’, and between ‘two-thirds and three-quarters of all exported English .
