&Quot;Hold to the Now, the Here, Through Which All Future Plunges To OLIVIER CORNET GALLERY, DUBLIN, IRELAND. "HOLD TO THE NOW, THE HERE, THROUGH WHICH ALL FUTURE PLUNGES TO THE PAST". A LOOK AT THE LAST 5 YEARS OF BLOOMSDAY EXHIBITIONS AT THE OCG. Wednesday, June 16, 2021 to Thursday, June 16, 2022 "Hold to the now, the here, through which all future plunges to the past" Bloomsday is an annual event and the name of a festival held in Dublin (Ireland), in various countries in Europe and around the world. It celebrates Thursday, the 16th of June 1904, the day depicted in Ulysses, James Joyce’s famous novel. The day is named after the central character in the novel, namely Leopold Bloom. James Joyce's book, published by Sylvia Beach in Paris in 1922, chronicles the life and encounters of Leopold Bloom with other real and fictional characters in and around Dublin. The annual Bloomsday Festival occupies an important part in the life of the Olivier Cornet Gallery. We are fortunate to have been part of the festival for a good few years now. This year for Bloomsday, through our 3D Virtual Space, the Olivier Cornet Gallery is taking a look at the last 5 years of Bloomsday exhibitions at our premises. We are delighted to present a selection of works from “Portrait of Gerald Davis as an Artist” (2016), “There's a touch of the artist about old Bloom (2017)” , “Drawing on Joyce (2018)”, “Olives, Oysters and Oranges (2019)” and “The Morphing Feminine” (2020), all part of the annual Bloomsday Festival.

  • 1 Visual Geo-Literary and Historical Analysis
    Charles Travis, Final Accepted Manuscript, Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 2015 Visual Geo-Literary and Historical Analysis, Tweetflickrtubing, and James Joyce’s Ulysses (1922) Abstract Situated at the intersection of the arts and sciences, Humanities GIS (HumGIS) are contributing to new knowledge systems emerging in the digital, spatial and geo humanities. This article discusses the conceptualization and operationalization of two HumGIS models engaging the cartographical and discursive tools employed by James Joyce to compose Ulysses (1922). The first model is used to perform a visual geo-literary historical analysis by transposing Homeric and Dantean topologies on a spatialized narrative of Joyce’s work. The second model integrates Ulysses within a social media map to interpret Bloomsday 2014 digital eco-system spatial performances in Dublin and globally. This article suggests that HumGIS models reflecting human contingency, idiosyncrasy and affect, drawing on literary, historical and social media tools, sources and perceptions, may offer GIScience, Neogeography and Big Data studies alternative spatial framings, and modelling scenarios. Keywords: GIS, literature, history, social-media, digital humanities. Introduction This article discusses the conceptualization, creation, and application of two Humanities Geographic Information Science (HumGIS) models respectively facilitating visual geo-literary- historical analysis, and social media activity interpretation, drawing on the “soft” data, cartographical, and discursive tools, and cultural impacts of James Joyce’s novel Ulysses (1922). HumGIS concepts and practices operate at the epistemological intersection of the arts and sciences, are shaping new discourses in the digital humanities, and provide GIScience, Neogeography and Big Data studies with an ontological shift and alternative modelling scenarios, shaped by the vagaries of human contingency and affect.

  • Honesty: the Stinging Fly on the Rump of Free State Respectability
    Estudios Irlandeses, Number 12, 2017, pp. 60-72 __________________________________________________________________________________________ AEDEI Honesty: The Stinging Fly on the Rump of Free State Respectability Anthony Keating Edge Hill University, UK [email protected] Copyright (c) 2017 by Anthony Keating. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged for access. Abstract. This essay will examine the exposé of the realities regarding poverty, immorality and sexual crime in the Irish Free State by the radical journal Honesty (1925-1931). Honesty was edited by the socialist republican James W. Upton, a man with a longstanding commitment to the rights of women and the poor. Upton was by instinct anti-establishment in an era when the country’s religio-political leadership was insecure and keen to manage the Free State’s news agenda. Something they attempted in the service of projecting what was viewed as an ideologically acceptable image of life in the Free Sate, to both domestic and foreign audiences. Upton viewed this policy as a manifestation of the social and political cant favoured by the Free State’s leadership, which was aided and abetted by, and gave succour to, the hypocrisy of wider bourgeois Free State society. A coalition of forces, Upton reasoned, that damaged the interests of the most vulnerable sections of Irish society, in particular, the nation’s women and children living on or below the breadline. However, notwithstanding it radicalism and reputation in the Free State, Honesty has been largely lost to the history of Irish journalism.

  • 'Decent Girls': Governmentality and the Moral Geographies of Sexual
    Gender, Place and Culture Vol. 15, No. 4, August 2008, 355–372 Producing ‘decent girls’: governmentality and the moral geographies of sexual conduct in Ireland (1922–1937) Una Crowley and Rob Kitchin* Department of Geography, National University of Ireland, Maynooth, County Kildare, Ireland In this article we examine the mode of governmentality constructed in Ireland with regard to the regulation and disciplining of sexuality in the post-independence era up to the writing of the Constitution (1922–1937). Drawing on the writings of Michel Foucault, we document how Ireland became an intense site of applied, national bio-politics with a panoply of government commissions and legislation, accompanied by new sites of reform (Magdalene Asylums and Mother and Baby Homes), which together were designed to mould and police the sexual practices of its citizens and create a sanitised moral landscape. Whilst a thoroughly gendered project, with nearly all legislation and sites of reform targeting women, we contend it was also a highly spatialised endeavour. The modes and practices of governmentality produced a dense spatialised grid of discipline, reform and self-regulation, seeking to produce ‘decent’ women inhabiting virtuous spaces by limiting access to work and public spaces, confining women to an unsullied (marital) home, and threatening new sites of reformation, emigration or ostracisation. Keywords: governmentality; bio-politics; sexuality; places of formation Introduction In this article we undertake a Foucaultian analysis of changing the sexual landscape of Ireland in the period between independence (1922) and the ratification of the Constitution (1937). This period was a time of formative nation building as the newly independent Ireland, free of British intervention, sought to define Irishness and the national moral character.

O’Connor Community and Education Officer Ulysses is upon first glance a very simple story about a man setting out about his day around the city of Dublin. The novel operates almost as an exercise in telling one story in as many different ways as possible but it is exactly this variety of approaches that gives the book its unique quality. All of these varied perspectives result in the reader being immersed in a portrayal of a city that is filled with intricate detail and diverse character. A living, breathing Dublin rendered in 360 degrees. Within this pack, Ulysses is explored by those who have continued that exercise. As new and more contemporary forms of story-telling are developed so to do people return, and using these modern means, add further viewpoints to the story of one man’s day in Dublin. To begin Carol Taaffe gives us the account of how some of Ireland’s chief literary minds, not content with simply intellectual appreciation of the book, set out to relive Leopold Bloom’s journey through Dublin themselves, inserting themselves into the story in an event that would grow to be the international annual observance of Bloomsday.

  • Jazz in Ireland, 1918–1960
    ‘These OFF-beat “Crazy Kids and Gals”’: Jazz in Ireland, 1918–1960 DAMIAN EVANS Introduction The history of jazz in Europe has bEEn writtEn about ExtEnsively, albEit not to the same degree as its history in America. Although the emergence of the New Jazz Studies in the late 1990s has broadened the perspectives taken on jazz, it too, until recently, has had limited engagement with jazz outside of American contexts.1 Luca Cerchiari observed in 2012 that, whilE books concErning EuropEan rEgional historiEs and individual musicians add up to ‘morE or lEss a hundrEd titlEs’, a ‘comprEhEnsivE book on jazz in Europe still doesn’t exist’.2 This situation has bEEn addrEssed to somE degree with the publication of The History of European Jazz, edited by Francesco Martinelli, which contains thirty-nine chapters exploring the history of thirty-three European countries including a chapter on Ireland by journalist and drummer Cormac Larkin.3 The Oxford History of Jazz in Europe (forthcoming), edited by Walter van de Leur, includes chapters on Ireland in its five volumes, each of which deals with a separate historical period.4 In addition, Ruth Stanley has recently documented the development of jazz during the interwar years in Ireland and Northern Ireland.5 1 Tony Whyton, ‘Europe and thE NEw Jazz StudiEs’, in Luca CErchiari, LaurEnt Cugny and Franz KerschbaumEr (Eds), Eurojazzland: Jazz and European Sources, Dynamics, and Contexts (Boston, Mass.: NorthEastErn UnivErsity PrEss, 2012), 366–80: 367. 2 Luca CErchiari, ‘Introduction’, in Eurojazzland, vii–xviii, vii. 3 FrancEsco Martinelli (Ed.), The History of European Jazz: The Music, Musicians and Audience in Context (Bristol, CT; ShEffiEld, UK: Equinox Publishing Ltd., 2018); Cormac Larkin, ‘Ireland’, in The History of European Jazz, 83–95.
