The Life and Works of Beatrice Elvery, 1881-1920
Nationalism, Motherhood, and Activism: The Life and Works of Beatrice Elvery, 1881-1920 Melissa S. Bowen A Thesis Submitted to the Department of History California State University Bakersfield In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History May 2015 Copyright By Melissa S. Bowen 2015 Acknowledgments I am incredibly grateful for the encouragement and support of Cal State Bakersfield’s History Department faculty, who as a group worked closely with me in preparing me for this fruitful endeavor. I am most grateful to my advisor, Cliona Murphy, whose positive enthusiasm, never- ending generosity, and infinite wisdom on Irish History made this project worthwhile and enjoyable. I would not have been able to put as much primary research into this project as I did without the generous scholarship awarded to me by Cal State Bakersfield’s GRASP office, which allowed me to travel to Ireland and study Beatrice Elvery’s work first hand. I am also grateful to the scholars and professionals who helped me with my research such as Dr. Stephanie Rains, Dr. Nicola Gordon Bowe, and Rector John Tanner. Lastly, my research would not nearly have been as extensive if it were not for my hosts while in Ireland, Brian Murphy, Miriam O’Brien, and Angela Lawlor, who all welcomed me into their homes, filled me with delicious Irish food, and guided me throughout the country during my entire trip.

An Artistic Praxis: Phenomenological Colour and Embodied Experience
Journal of the International Colour Association (2017): 17, 150-200 Balabanoff An Artistic Praxis: Phenomenological colour and embodied experience Doreen Balabanoff Faculty of Design, OCAD University, Toronto, Canada Email: [email protected] Artistic knowledge resides within the works that a visual artist makes. .Verbalising or discussing that knowledge is a separate exercise, often left to others, who make their own interpretations and investigations. In this introspective study of artworks spanning four decades, I look into and share insight about a practice in which knowledge about colour, light and spatial experience was developed and utilised. The process of action, reflection and new application of gained knowledge is understood as a praxis—a practice aimed at creating change in the world. The lessons learned are about human embodied experience of light, colour and darkness in spatial environments. The intent of the study (as of the artwork) is enhancement of our capacities for creating sensitive and enlivening space for human life experience and human flourishing, through understanding and use of colour and light as complex environmental phenomena affecting our mind/body/psyche. Four themes arose from reflecting upon the work. These are, in order of discussion: (1) Image and Emanation, (2) Resonance and Chord, (3) Threshold and Veil, and (4) Projection, Reflection, Light and Time. My findings include affirmation that a Goethian science (phenomenological, observational) approach to investigating and unconcealing tacit knowledge—embedded in an artistic praxis and its outcomes—has value for developing a deeper understanding of environmental colour and light. Such knowledge is important because environmental design has impact upon our bodies, our minds and our life experience. -

All Rights Reserved ii CONTENTS CONTEXT Biographical History iv Archival History iv CONTENT AND STRUCTURE Scope and Content v System of Arrangement vi CONDITIONS OF ACCESS AND USE Access vii Language vii Finding Aid vii DESCRIPTION CONTROL Archivist’s Note vii iii CONTEXT Biographical history Born in Dublin in February 1882, Joseph Maunsell Hone was educated at Wellington and Jesus College, Cambridge and began a writing career which gained him a reputation as a leading figure of the Irish literary revival. He wrote well regarded biographies of George Moore (1939), Henry Tonks (1936), and W.B. Yeats (1943) with whom he was on terms of close friendship. His political writings included books on the 1916 rebellion, the Irish Convention, and a history of Ireland since independence, published in 1932. He had a strong interest in philosophy, translating Daniel Halévy’s life of Nietzsche and working with Arland Ussher on an anthology of philosophers which was never completed. He was elected President of the Irish Academy of Letters in 1957. With George Roberts and Stephen Gwynn, he co-founded Maunsel & Company, publishers, and served as its chairman. The company published more than five hundred titles to become Ireland’s largest publishing house, publishing works by all the revival’s leading figures. The imprint later changed to Maunsel & Roberts. Joseph Hone died in March 1959 and was survived by his wife Vera (neé Brewster), a noted beauty from New York who he had married in 1911. -

GLOWING EMBERS Issue No. 10 Spiritan Heritage & Archives Centre October 2020 Evie Hone Abstract Archives Awaken the Spiritan Imagination oday in many aspects imagination is kidnapped; it is hijacked leaving us unfree for revelation. Jesus is interested in the Tstirrings of the imagination and the human heart, the personal inspirations that influence our choices and behaviour. The territory within, imagination with all its complex emotions and desires, holds Jesus’ attention. Setting imagination and hearts free can lead to the rediscovery of silence, wonder and heart-listening. It is these experiences that can overcome `faith-deafness` and liberate the imagination and the heart. Our archives show us that it is personal histories that carry profound truth of faith and life in the Holy Spirit. We see this when we follow the traces of God in biographies and mission histories. Here we discover the dynamic presence of God in Spiritan lives. The best moments in reading files are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – that you’d though special, particular to yourself. And here it is, set down by someone else, a person you’ve never met, someone long dead. And it’s as if a hand has come out and taken yours. Imagination is ignited and this allows us to go beyond the present moment and to he window ‘Abstract’ (1937) envisage other possibilities; in a sense it is a refusal to stay within the by Evie Hone was originally limitations of the here and now.

Analysing Cubism
Mary Swanzy, Le Village, c. 1920s Analysing Cubism 20 February – 19 May 2013 IMMA, New Galleries, Royal Hospital, Kilmainham Including artists, Mainie Jellett, Evie Hone, Mary Swanzy, Norah McGuinness, Andre Lhote, Albert Gleizes, Juan Gris and Pablo Picasso EXHIBITION NOTES FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS (Words highlighted in yellow are included in Glossary at end) General Information The term ‘Analytic Cubism’ has been used to describe work made by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in Paris between 1909 and 1912 and includes iconic paintings such as Picasso’s Ma Jolie (1911-1912) from the collection of MoMA in New York. The exhibition Analysing Cubism takes as its point of origin the principles of early or Analytic Cubism and outlines the various directions taken by different artists, though with a focus on Irish artists Mainie Jellett and Evie Hone. Rather than taking one position on Cubism, the exhibition presents several different viewpoints on the subject which are one-sided and even conflicting. Analysing Cubism does not propose that the notion of Cubism is contested; rather, it points out that many different scholars and artists have taken the principles of Cubism and translated them in different ways. The model of the exhibition fits with wider programming ideas at IMMA and the Crawford Art Gallery. It also signals ways in which Cubism and cubist artists remain relevant to many contemporary artists. Analysing Cubism will shift the focus away from Picasso and Braque (who quickly abandoned this form of abstraction) to identify the centrality of Albert Gleizes in the development of the movement. Gleizes was the teacher of Mainie Jellett and Evie Hone.
