The loss of ringforts and other earthworks has been particularly severe - many counties show a loss of from 30 to 40%. Deep ploughing and the easy removal of ancient fences is, of course, the primary cause.

  • Knocknagow
    “Pointing a Topical Moral at the Present”: Watching <em>Knocknagow</em> in 1918 Current Issue Back Issues Occasional Papers Publications Webteque Events About Us Archives “Pointing a Topical Moral at the Present”: Watching Knocknagow in 1918 Denis Condon Click here to view Knocknagow (1918) Introduction In his seminal account of Irish silent cinema, Kevin Rockett locates the Film Company of Ireland’s Knocknagow in relation to the politics of Irish nationalism in the period between the Easter Rising of 1916 and the War of Independence (Rockett, 18–23). Indicating the political logic behind the filmmakers’ choice of elements in their adaptation of Charles J. Kickham’s novel Knocknagow, or The Homes of Tipperary (1873), Rockett contends that in an increasingly fraught political situation, “the release of a film such as Knocknagow was certain to be interpreted in the light of current events” (Rockett, 21). Despite the plausibility of such an argument, and his suggestive juxtaposition of narrative details and political occurrences in 1917–18, Rockett offers little evidence that contemporary audiences did actually consider the film in some way relevant to the momentous events unfolding around them. Part of the reason for this omission may be that Rockett focuses on the screening of the film in Dublin in late April, by which point it had already been exhibited in many other towns and cities in Ireland. My own discussion of Knocknagow’s audiences in Early Irish Cinema, 1895–1921 (2008) focuses in particular on articles in Ireland’s first cinema periodical, Irish Limelight (Condon 2008, 243–53). Although it to some extent considers popular audiences in relation to the film’s premiere in Clonmel, my concern there was mainly with audiences involved in the film business in Ireland.

Chapter 1- Introduction INTRODUCTION TO REPORT 1.1 In March of 2008, the then Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Micheál Martin T.D., announced the establishment of an advisory group (the Group) to review the current legislative framework regarding the public interest aspects of media mergers in Ireland. This review was undertaken in the context of a wider review taking place on the operation and implementation of the Competition Act 2002. 1.2 The Group was asked to examine the provisions of the Competition Act 2002 in relation to media mergers and in particular the “relevant criteria” specified in the Act, by reference to which the Minister currently considers media mergers. 1.3 The Terms of Reference of the Group were:- To review and to consider the current levels of plurality and diversity in the media sector in Ireland. To examine and review the “relevant criteria” as currently defined in the Act. To examine and consider how the application of the “relevant criteria” should be given effect and by whom. To examine the role of the Minister in assessing the “relevant criteria” from a public interest perspective and the best mechanism to do so. To examine international best practice, including the applicability of models from other countries. To make recommendations, as appropriate, on the above. 2 1.4 The membership of the Group comprised:- Paul Sreenan S.C. (Chairman) Dr. Olive Braiden. Peter Cassells Marc Coleman John Herlihy Prof.
