It was acquired from the poet’s son, R Dardis Clarke. It contains manuscripts relating to Clarke’s poetry, critical and creative prose, verse plays and theatre, his broadcasting career, notebooks, and correspondence written by and addressed to Austin Clarke throughout his adult life. Clarke worked as a broadcaster at Radio Éireann (later Radio Telefís Éireann) for over thirty years, and this collection contains carbons of poems, plays and prose extracts which the members of the Dublin Verse-Speaking Society, of which he was co-founder, performed on air and on stage. The archive also contains a considerable holding of poems which listeners to his radio programmes submitted to him and which he adjudicated. It also contains thousands of items of correspondence, the largest section of which relates to Radio Éireann. Clarke used notebooks as aide memoires, and to record jottings for poems. Some contain drafts of correspondence from Clarke. When the National Library of Ireland acquired the collection, the Mss were loosely organized, and in some cases no organizing principle was discernible. Some hundreds of sheet copies of poems intended for broadcast were, however, already in alphabetical order. One envelope of Mss, for example, contained drafts, fair copies and Tss relating to poems from the collections The Horse-Eaters, Old-Fashioned Pilgrimage, Ancient Lights, Night and Morning, Mnemosyne Lay in Dust, The Echo at Coole and Other Poems, Flight to Africa, Collected Poems (1974) (‘The Sword of the West’), end-notes for Collected Poems (1974), notes towards unpublished memoirs, fragments from Penny in the Clouds and Twice Round the Black Church, 7 Tss of reviews, and stray sheets from drafts of verse drama and miscellaneous other notes and fragments. The pages were in no particular sequence. The manuscripts are classified under the following headings: correspondence, poetry, prose, verse plays and theatre, notebooks, broadcast scripts, a small collection of Joseph Campbell Mss, and a group of miscellaneous items.

    The Early Work of Austin Clarke the Early Work (1916-1938)

    THE EARLY WORK OF AUSTIN CLARKE THE EARLY WORK (1916-1938) OF AUSTIN CLARKE By MAURICE RIORDAN, 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 March 1981 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (1981) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Early Work (1916-1938) of Austin Clarke. AUTHOR: Maurice Riordan, B.A. (Cork) M.A. (Cork) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Brian John NUMBER OF Fll.GES: vi, 275 ii ABSTRACT Austin Clarke dedicated himself to the ideal of an independent Irish literature in English. This dedication had two principal consequences for his work: he developed a poetic style appropriate to expressing the Irish imagination, and he found inspiration in the matter of Ireland, in hex mythology and folklore, in her literary, artistic and __ religious traditions, and in the daily life of modern Ireland. The basic orientation of Clarke's work determines the twofold purpose of this thesis. It seeks to provide a clarifying background for his poetry, drama and fiction up to 1938; and, in examining the texts in their prope.r context, it seeks to reveal the permanent and universal aspects of his achievement. Clarke's early development in response to the shaping influence of the Irish Revival is examined in the opening chapter. His initial interest in heroic saga is considered, but, principally, the focus is on his effort to establish stylistic links between the Anglo-Irish and the Gaelic traditions, an effort that is seen to culminate with his adoption of assonantal verse as an essential element in his poetic technique.

He was a chorister at Dublin’s Christ Church Cathedral and studied at the Royal Irish Academy of Music, taking his degree in music at Trinity College, Dublin. He was later awarded a doctorate in music in 1942. Duff had initially intended to enter the Church of Ireland as a priest, but abandoned his studies in favour of a career in music, studying composition for a time with Hamilton Harty. He was organist and choirmaster at Christ Church, Bray, for a short time before becoming a bandmaster in the Army School of Music and conductor of the Army No. 2 band based in Cork. He left the army in 1931, at the same time that his short-lived marriage broke down, and became Music Director at the Abbey Theatre, writing music for plays such as W.B. Yeats’s The King of the Great Clock Tower and Resurrection, and Denis Johnston’s A Bride for the Unicorn. The Abbey connection also led to the composition of one of Duff’s characteristic works, the Drinking Horn Suite (1953 but drawing on music he had composed twenty years earlier as a ballet score).

  • Stan Smith – Irish Poetry and the Construction

    Stan Smith – Irish Poetry and the Construction

    139 Book Reviews: Writers at Work in Ireland and England Irish Poetry and the Construction of Modern Identity: Ireland between Fantasy and History. By Stan Smith. Dublin: Irish Academic Press, 2005. x + 238 pp. $65.00 cloth, $29.50 paper. The world is not wanting in histories of Irish poetry, or even of twen- tieth-century Irish poetry in particular: I know of at least ten since 1988. Nevertheless, Stan Smith’s Irish Poetry and the Construction of Modern Identity represents an important accomplishment. Smith’s color title, “Ire- land between Fantasy and History,” suggests precisely what he’s after—the ways in which poetry has functioned in the self-conscious shaping of mod- ern Irish identities. Smith’s interest in what he calls, while discussing Pa- draic Fallon, “the compounding and interpretation of story and history” (39), develops from the work he’s undertaken in such books as Inviolable Voice: History and 20th-Century Poetry (1982) or The Origins of Mod- ernism: Eliot, Pound, Yeats and the Rhetorics of Renewal (1994). Smith has always attended to how ideology yokes together signifier and signified. In this book, however, perhaps because questions of tradition and nation have been more overtly a part of nation-building in Ireland than in Britain, post-structuralist and post-colonial theory have inflected Smith’s atten- tion in ways rather more dramatic than I have seen in his earlier work. Theory is rarely Smith’s overt topic; it shows up rather in his ability to see organization rather than organicism, history subjected to question rather than nature subjecting us.
  • 'Muting the Klaxon: Poetry, History, and Irish Modernism'1

    'Muting the Klaxon: Poetry, History, and Irish Modernism'1

    1 Tim Armstrong 1 ‘Muting the Klaxon: Poetry, History, and Irish Modernism’ This is an uncorrected and reset version of the original article which appeared as: ‘Muting the Klaxon: Poetry, History, and Irish Modernism,’ in Modernism and Ireland: The Poetry of the 1930s , ed. Patricia Coughlan and Alex Davies (Cork: Cork University Press, 1995), pp.43-74. In the winter of 1923-24 a periodical called The Klaxon appeared in Dublin. It was the only issue of what was hopefully announced as a ‘seasonal’ quarterly. The table of contents makes interesting reading: 2 Confessional . L. K. E. Beauty Energised . F. R. H. The Midnight Court (from the Irish). Percy Ussher North. H. Stuart Cheese . .John W. Blaine The Will of God. Sechilienne The Ulysses of Mr. James Joyce . Lawrence K. Emery Cleopatra. F. R. Higgins An Inghean Dubh. G. Coulter Picasso, Mamie Jellett and Dublin Criticism. Thomas McGreevy Seeking, as its editorial note suggests, to link itself to International Modernism, The Klaxon has a Brancusi-like cover device and a ‘Negro sculpture in wood’ as frontispiece. The ‘Confessional’ by Lawrence Emery which opens this Irish Blast has a fine ranting tone: ‘We railed against the psychopedantic parlours of our elders and their old maidenly consorts, hoping the while with an excess of Picabia and banter, a whiff of Dadaist Europe to kick Ireland into artistic wakefulness.’ The aggressive Modernism of the doomed journal, and the harshness of the context it expects to insert itself into, is evident in its defense of Joyce and Picasso against philistine taste. The inclusion of Ussher’s translation of ‘The Midnight Court’ also carries a political weight – its bawdy invoking a different Irish tradition from that of the Celtic Twilight (it was to be republished in 1926 with an polemical introduction by Yeats).

    1 Title: Modernist Presses and the Gayfield Press a Brief Description Of

    Title: Modernist Presses and the Gayfield Press A brief description of the Gayfield Press is outlined in the Liam Miller’s history of The Dolmen Press which Miller owned and edited. Miller’s first publication was Thomas Kinsella’s The Starlit Eye which he printed on a wooden press: “loaned from Cecil French Salkeld, who used it to publish his Gayfield Press series of Dublin poets and artists”.1 Since the publication of Miller’s text, the Gayfield Press has received little attention and its history has been lost or forgotten. Furthermore, the role of Blanaid Salkeld as a publisher has been virtually erased from literary studies of the period. This paper sheds light on this little-known feminist press, and foregrounds the key role of Salkeld as a contributor, editor and publisher of the Gayfield Press. The consideration of this press as a feminist enterprise reinstates Salkeld back into the narrative of Irish publishing and enhances our understanding of private printing presses as a vital force for female creativity. Blanaid Salkeld (1880-1959), was born in India and brought up in Fitzwilliam Street, Dublin. Her early influences included poet John Keats and the Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore, a friend of her father, whom she met as a young girl in India.2 She married an Englishman in the Bombay civil service in 1902 but was widowed and returned to Ireland in 1906 with her son, the artist Cecil ffrench Salkeld (1903-1969). She joined the Abbey Theatre, appearing under the stage name Nell Byrne and took the lead role in George Fitzmaurice’s Country Dressmaker in 1907.
