  • Urban Planning, Irish Modernism, and Dublin
    Notes 1 Urbanizing the Revival: Urban Planning, Irish Modernism, and Dublin 1. Arguably Andrew Thacker betrays a similar underlying assumption when he writes of ‘After the Race’: ‘Despite the characterisation of Doyle as a rather shallow enthusiast for motoring, the excitement of the car’s “rapid motion through space” is clearly associated by Joyce with a European modernity to which he, as a writer, aspired’ (Thacker 115). 2. Wirth-Nesher’s understanding of the city, here, is influenced by that of Georg Simmel, whereby the city, while divesting individuals of a sense of communal belonging, also affords them a degree of personal freedom that is impossible in a smaller community (Wirth-Nesher 163). Due to the lack of anonymity in Joyce’s Dublin, an indicator of its pre-urban or non-urban status, this personal freedom is unavailable to Joyce’s characters. ‘There are almost no strangers’ in Dubliners, she writes, with the exceptions of those in ‘An Encounter’ and ‘Araby’ (164). She then enumerates no less than seven strangers in the collection, arguing however that they are ‘invented through the transformation of the familiar into the strange’ (164). 3. Wirth-Nesher’s assumptions about Dublin’s status as a city are not really necessary to the focus of her analysis, which emphasizes the importance Joyce’s early work places on the ‘indeterminacy of the public and private’ and its effects on the social lives of the characters (166). That she chooses to frame this analysis in terms of Dublin’s ‘exacting the price of city life and in turn offering the constraints of a small town’ (173) reveals forcefully the pervasiveness of this type of reading of Joyce’s Dublin.

Four additional letters written by MacDiarmid’s second wife, Valda Grieve, to Sorley MacLean have also been included as they shed further light on the relationship which evolved between the two poets over the course of almost fifty years of friendship. These letters from Valda were archived with the unpublished correspondence from MacDiarmid which the Gaelic poet preserved. The critical introduction to the letters examines the significance of these poets’ literary collaboration in relation to the Scottish Renaissance and the Gaelic Literary Revival in Scotland, both movements following Ezra Pound’s Modernist maxim, “Make it new.” The first chapter, “Forging a Friendship”, situates the development of the men’s relationship in iii terms of each writer’s literary career, MacDiarmid already having achieved fame through his early lyrics and with the 1926 publication of A Drunk Man Looks at the Thistle when they first met.

  • W. B. Yeat's Presence in James Joyce's a Portrait of The
    udc 821.111-31.09 Joyce J. doi 10.18485/bells.2015.7.1 Michael McAteer Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Budapest, Hungary W. B. YEAT’S PRESENCE IN JAMES JOYCE’S A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN Abstract In the context of scholarly re-evaluations of James Joyce’s relation to the literary revival in Ireland at the start of the twentieth century, this essay examines the significance of W.B. Yeats to A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. It traces some of the debates around Celtic and Irish identity within the literary revival as a context for understanding the pre-occupations evident in Joyce’s novel, noting the significance of Yeats’s mysticism to the protagonist of Stephen Hero, and its persistence in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man later. The essay considers the theme of flight in relation to the poetry volume that is addressed directly in the novel, Yeats’s 1899 collection, The Wind Among the Reeds. In the process, the influence of Yeats’s thought and style is observed both in Stephen Dedalus’s forms of expression and in the means through which Joyce conveys them. Particular attention is drawn to the notion of enchantment in the novel, and its relation to the literature of the Irish Revival. The later part of the essay turns to the 1899 performance of Yeats’s play, The Countess Cathleen, at the Antient Concert Rooms in Dublin, and Joyce’s memory of the performance as represented through Stephen towards the end of the novel.

  • 4 January 2009 Tate Britain Teacher and Student Notes by Linda Bolton
    11 SEPTEMBER 2008 – 4 JANUARY 2009 TATE BRITAIN TEACHER AND STUDENT NOTES BY LINDA BOLTON INTRODUCTION Francis Bacon (1909–92) was one of the most important painters of the twentieth century and one of the very few British artists with a strong international reputation. He was a maverick who rejected the dominant practice of the time, abstraction, in favour of a distinctive and disturbing realism. This major exhibition displays Bacon’s work from his first masterpiece to works made shortly before his death. He was born in 1909 in Dublin to Anglo-Irish parents; his father was a racehorse trainer and his mother a steel and coal heiress. Bacon was a sickly child, he suffered from asthma and was allergic to the dogs and horses kept by his father. His lively and gregarious mother showed little interest in her son’s early sketches. Bacon’s closest childhood confidante was the family nursemaid, Jessie Lightfoot. They developed an intense bond and she lived with him at intervals long into Bacon’s adulthood, remaining one of his closest companions throughout his life. It was a peripatetic childhood as his family moved frequently between England and Ireland. The frequent upheavals he experienced as a result of this were to induce in Bacon a sense of displacement which is often referenced in his work. Bacon loved dressing up. As a shy child, his effeminate manner upset his father, who apparently had Bacon horsewhipped by their Irish groom, and banished him from the family home after finding his son dressed in his mother’s underwear, admiring himself in front of a mirror.

    RW_HISTORY_BOOK1 06/07/2007 14:32 Page 41 CULTURAL REVIVAL A growing interest in sport and new means of transport (bicycle, buses) which allowed more people attend The low profile adopted by the IRB which was still powerful in the leadership From 1900 GAA provincial and national championship matches became very popular It acquired more sports grounds, e.g. Croke Park It linked in with the growing cultural nationalism which encouraged the Irish language and ‘buy Irish’ campaigns. The achievements of the GAA The GAA created and fostered two unique Irish games It encouraged local and national patriotism It encouraged administrative skills and an understanding of democracy which were valuable when the country gained independence. 9.2 The Gaelic League The decline of the Irish language The Irish language was the most obvious difference between the Irish and the English, but it had been declining since the 18th century. In 1851, 23% of the population spoke Irish, but this had fallen to 14% by 1891. The decline was due to: The low status of Irish. Most people who spoke it were poor and uneducated. Powerful figures like landlords, judges and politicians spoke English English was more useful for emigration, so parents wanted the schools to teach it to their children and not Irish Few Irish speakers could read or write Irish and there were no newspapers or books in modern Irish for them to study. A new interest in Irish A new interest in Irish appeared in the 1880s and 1890s because: Linguistic scholars from Europe came to study Irish, which is one of the oldest written European languages Collections of Irish poetry and folktales like Douglas Hyde’s Love Songs of Connaught were published.

In di!erent essays we have read about the unique gaze of the artist who looks at himself, a gaze whose singularity he formulated when he wrote about looking at one of Rembrandt’s self portraits: “either I am Rembrandt and the painting is a mirror, or Rembrandt is looking at himself and I am the mirror”; we have read about bridging the distance between the painter and the model, while providing a more accurate answer to the demands of the observing eye from the painting hand; we have read on about the aspiration for a union of signifier and signified as a metaphor for Narcissus who could not distinguish himself from his reflection. Yet Narcissus is not the only one punished by the burden of reflection at all. In the third book of Metamorphoses Ovid recounts the story of the nymph Echo, whose role was to engage in conversation and distract Hera, queen of Olympus and Zeus’ wife, while the king of the gods seduced the nymphs.

  • A-Level History of Art Mark Scheme Unit 03
    A-LEVEL History of Art HART3 - Investigation and Interpretation (1) Mark scheme 2250 June 2015 Version 1.0 Final Mark schemes are prepared by the Lead Assessment Writer and considered, together with the relevant questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the standardisation events which all associates participate in and is the scheme which was used by them in this examination. The standardisation process ensures that the mark scheme covers the students’ responses to questions and that every associate understands and applies it in the same correct way. As preparation for standardisation each associate analyses a number of students’ scripts. Alternative answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed and legislated for. If, after the standardisation process, associates encounter unusual answers which have not been raised they are required to refer these to the Lead Assessment Writer. It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and expanded on the basis of students’ reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark schemes on the basis of one year’s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination paper. Further copies of this mark scheme are available from aqa.org.uk Copyright © 2015 AQA and its licensors. All rights reserved. AQA retains the copyright on all its publications. However, registered schools/colleges for AQA are permitted to copy material from this booklet for their own internal use, with the following important exception: AQA cannot give permission to schools/colleges to photocopy any material that is acknowledged to a third party even for internal use within the centre.
