Some few years ago, at the request of Colonel John Joyce, I wrote a memorandum upon the Dá11 Court for the Bureau of Military History. I had kept no diaries for the years 1920 to 1922 and had very few records with which to refresh my memory of the events which I attempted to describe. The memorandum had therefore to take the form of reminiscences of my personal experiences as a Judge of the Dáil Courts. What follows is intended to be a kind of sequel to that memorandum and a similar record of my personal experiences as the first Judge-Advocate-General of the Defence Forces of the Provisional Government and afterwards of the Irish Free State. I kept no diaries f or the years 1922 to 1926; and will have again to depend upon my unaided memory with occasional resort, in all probability, to the contemporary press and books of reference for the purpose of checking or ascertaining names or dates or the sequence of events.

  • Introduction to the Origins of the Irish Constitution
    origins of the irish constitution ch1-6:Layout 1 16/01/2012 17:59 Page 1 Introduction The Constitution of the Irish Free State1 entered into force on December 6, 1922 after six turbulent years that saw rebellion against British rule, the success of the Sinn Féin party at the 1918 general election, the War of Independence, the partition of the island of Ireland and, ultimately, the Anglo-Irish Treaty of December 1921. The 1921 Treaty had provided for the establishment of the Irish Free State, with Dominion status within the emerging British Commonwealth. While the new state was to be internally sovereign within its borders, its external sovereignty was, at least theoretically, compromised by the uncertainties associated with Dominion status. Yet, within a space of fifteen years, that Constitution was itself replaced following years of political and constitutional turmoil and debate, a process which accelerated following the accession of de Valera to power in March 1932. A new state thus emerged whose external sovereignty was now put beyond question. The Treaty had contained provisions which were decidedly unpalatable so far as nationalist opinion was concerned: the British side had insisted on a number of essentially symbolic constraints on Irish sovereignty which, with hindsight, can fairly be described as a faint endeavour on their part to camouflage the extent to which a new independent State was being created. At the time, however, the British side certainly considered these to be real constraints which squarely confined the Irish Free State within the existing parameters of the prevailing Imperial/Commonwealth constitutional theory.

  • Ideas of North: Glenn Gould and the Aesthetic of the Sublime
    Ideas of North: Glenn Gould and the Aesthetic of the Sublime ANYSSA NEUMANN University of Oxford In 1965, one year after his startling retirement from the international concert stage at age thirty- one, the Canadian pianist Glenn Gould took a train deep into the northern regions of his native country, to the western shore of Hudson Bay. ere, in subarctic solitude, he began to work on his first radio documentary, e Idea of North, a quiet, contrapuntal meditation on the mentality and metaphor of North1 in Canadian consciousness. Wielding a portable tape-recorder, Gould interviewed five people who had “a remarkable experience of the north”2 and wove together their impressions of both physical and psychological contact with its elemental force, reflections on “isolation, on absence, stillness, remoteness, and the absence of alternatives.”3 Upon return to the recording studios in Toronto, Gould cut, edited, spliced, and layered these interviews into a complex vocal fugue, creating an hour-long “docudrama” broadcast on CBC radio in 1967. e Idea of North became the first installment of what Gould later called e Solitude Trilogy, which included two more docudramas, one observing a remote settlement in Newfoundland, the other offering a glimpse into Mennonite enclaves in Manitoba. No longer occupied by the demands of a concert career, Gould was free to devote himself to the recording studio both as pianist and as creator of radio documentaries, which were, he admitted, less “factual documentary” than “metaphoric comment.”4 In the womb-like security of the recording studio, released from the musical and social demands of a live audience, he began to cultivate a new aesthetic of limitless technological creation.

The Shape of Irish SF to Come 291 Notes 321 Bibliography 329 iii Abstract: My original contribution to knowledge is a synthesis between ‘mythological’ and ‘historical’ definitions of science fiction, a synthesis which I believe allows for a more nuanced understanding of postcolonial SF. In this project, I use Irish SF (hitherto treated as an anomaly or a novelty, when its existence is acknowledged at all) as an extended case-study. In this thesis, I revisit the oft-scorned argument that the genre is in fact structurally related to myth. Taking my cue from the work of Tatiana Chernyshova and Kôichi Yamano, I assert that SF grows out of pseudo-scientific narratives that are formed in the same way as myths: individuals whose understanding of a subject is limited will “fill in the gaps” in their knowledge with anecdotes, ‘common sense’ and faulty extrapolations.

  • 1 the Life and Thought of Charles De Foucauld: a Christian Eremitical Vocation to Islam and His Contribution to the Understandin
    The Life and Thought of Charles de Foucauld: A Christian Eremitical Vocation to Islam and His Contribution to the Understanding of Muslim-Christian Relations within the Catholic Tradition Ariana Joyce Patey Heythrop College PhD Theology 1 Abstract Charles de Foucauld (1858-1916) was a Catholic hermit who lived and died in French Algeria. On the frontlines of Muslim-Christian relations in North Africa, first as a soldier and then as a priest and hermit, he represents a significant figure in our understanding of the history of relations between Islam and the Catholic Church in the twentieth century. Foucauld had a calling to be a witness for Jesus Christ to the Muslim people of North Africa. He was able to articulate this private mission and his formal vocation to monastic life by retrieving the eremitical tradition of the Catholic Church. Shaped by the anti-clerical culture of the Third Republic, as a young man Foucauld was an avowed atheist. His interaction with the Muslims of North Africa was transformative. After his conversion to Catholicism, these experiences allowed him to understand the Incarnation as an inclusive gift that made all men brothers in God’s family. His awareness of this mystery and his understanding of abjection and poverty, led him to see in the life of the Muslims of North Africa the “last place” of Jesus. Foucauld was called to orient his life towards them, to continually convert by seeing Jesus in the face of Muslims. Foucauld’s extreme ascetic devotions, including his desire to become “hidden” amongst the poor, were given spiritual meaning by his understanding of the eremitic tradition.
