BC Must Turn Over Troubles Tapes August 2012 Boston’s hometown VOL. 23 #8 journal of Irish culture. $1.50 Worldwide at All contents copyright © 2012 Boston Neighborhood News, Inc. bostonirish.com Larry Reynolds and his wife Phyllis were feted to an all-day party Sunday afternoon July 15 at Concannon’s Village in Norwood in celebration of the couple’s 80th birthdays this year. More than 300 people were on hand for a continuous session of traditional Irish music and dance to toast the couple. Relatives and friends from all over New England were joined by a contingent from Ireland who visited Boston for the occasion. A native of Ahascragh in Co. Galway, Reynolds came to Boston in 1953, where he met and married his wife Phyllis, a piano player, and they were proud parents of seven children – six boys and a girl. Larry was a founder of Boston’s own chapter of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann, Hanafin-Cooley Branch, Promoting Traditional Irish Culture, Music and Dance in the Boston Area. In 2002, he was inducted into the Comhaltas Hall of Fame. (Photo by Harry Brett, Image Photo Service.)

    January 20 Image of the day - Martin Luther King Jr [email protected] Page 1 January 20 Martin Luther King Jr remains relevant, Pope Francis Archbishop José H Gomez, President, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops issued the following statement on Martin Luther King Jr Day. For much of the past year, America has been reckoning with the legacy of slavery and the persistence of racial injustice in our country. Sadly, it is still true that the "colour of our skin" often matters more in our society than the "content of our character," as Rev Martin Luther King, Jr, said a half- century ago. This year as we commemorate the legacy of this great American, we remember especially Rev King's belief in nonviolence and the power of love. As we witnessed in the violence in our cities last summer and in the violence that broke out again last week at the Capitol in Washington, DC, our country has become too angry, too bitter, and too divided. And as we confront our deep divisions, we face the same choices that Rev King and the civil rights movement faced. For us, too, the question is how will we struggle against the injustices in our society, what means will we use? In 1958, Rev King wrote: "Along the way of life, someone must have the sense enough and the morality enough to cut off the chain of hate. This can only be done by projecting the ethics of love to the center of our lives." This is the [email protected] Page 2 January 20 challenge for every one of us who believes in the promise of America and seeks to renew the soul of this great nation.

Daruwala: Yeats and the Mask of Deirdre: "That love is all we need" Yeats and the Mask ofDeirdre: "That love is all we need II By MANECK H. DARUWALA The poet finds and makes his mask in disappointment, the hero in defeat. The desire that can be satisfied is not a great desire. (Yeats) Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth. (Wilde) EIRDRE, written during a very painful period of Yeats's life, is a civilized D form of autobiography. What could not be put down in journals or lyric poetry and could not be ignored becomes drama. Yeats turns here from the mirror to the mask. "The poet finds and makes his mask in disappointment, the hero in defeat" ("Anima Hominis," Mythologies, 334, 337), may apply equally to Yeats and Naoise. As Yeats says, there is always a phantasmago­ ria. Here the phantasmagoria includes Celtic myth, politics, chess games, and the literary tradition (or intertextuality-which, like a Greek mask, combines the advantages of resonance with those of disguise).

Establishing Kuwait’s as modern, democratic, and independent nation, paradoxically, depended on a network of international organizations, foreign consultants, and world-renowned architects to build a series of architectural projects with a hybrid of local and foreign forms and functions to produce a convincing image of Kuwait national autonomy. Kuwait nationalism relied on architecture’s ability, as an art medium, to produce a seamless image of Kuwait as a modern country and led to citing it as one of the most democratic states in the Middle East. The construction of all major projects of Kuwait’s nation building followed a similar path; for example, all mashare’e kubra [major projects] of the state that started early 1960s included particular geometries, monumental forms, and symbolic elements inspired by the vernacular life of Kuwait to establish its legitimacy.

  • Deirdre and Naoise)
    The Exile of the Sons of Uisneach (Deirdre and Naoise) One night, King Conchobar of Ulster was having a feast in his great hall. His storyteller Feidhlimidh had a captive audience among Conchobar's men while his wife served drinks, even though she was heavily pregnant. She toiled on through the evening until the men had drunk themselves into a snoring slumber. Feidhlimidh's wife was overcome with tiredness and began to make her way towards bed. Suddenly, a piercing scream came from the woman's womb and echoed around the hall. Conchobar's men were on their feet in seconds, standing shoulder to shoulder with swords in hand ready to face the source of that fearsome scream. Sencha, the most level-headed man in the hall, calmed the men of Ulster and ordered Feidhlimidh's wife brought to them at once. Feidhlimidh asked his wife what the terrible sound was, but she was as bewildered as he. “No woman knows what her womb bears”, she replied as tears flowed down her cheeks, fear coating each word she spoke. The druid Cathbadh felt pity for the woman, but had no words to comfort her for he could foretell the child's future. “The child you carry will be the most beautiful woman ever to live in Ireland. Her curled, fair hair, eyes of the clearest emerald green and deep red lips will captivate the hearts of high kings and be the envy of high queens. Her name shall be Deirdre and she will cause slaughter amongst the warriors of Ulster.” Cathbadh then placed his hands over the woman's womb, and feeling the child move within said, “Although this child is pure and beautiful, she will bring trouble on all who love her.” With that, Feidhlimidh's wife felt the pangs of labour and later that night gave birth to a girl.

  • Deirdre and Emer As Ideal Counterparts to Their Heroes
    133 영어영문학연구 제45권 제4호 Studies in English Language & Literature (2019) 겨울 133－151 http://dx.doi.org/10.21559/aellk.2019.45.4.08 Deirdre and Emer as Ideal Counterparts to Their Heroes 12Mei Kang*․Ki Ho Yun** (Chungbuk National University) Kang, Mei and Yun, Ki Ho. “Deirdre and Emer as Ideal Counterparts to Their Heroes.” Studies in English Language & Literature 45.4 (2019): 133-151. The purpose of this paper is to study two female characters, Deirdre and Emer as ideal counterparts to their husband-heroes in W. B. Yeats’s two Cuchulain plays: Deirdre and The Only Jealousy of Emer. To clarify what makes these two characters distinguished, this paper tries to reveal several significant similarities between Deirdre and Emer by analyzing their characters respectively. In Deirdre, the analysis is trying to illustrate how Deirdre becomes a worthy partner to Naoise: her superior wisdom enables her to see through the reality; meanwhile, the fidelity to love honors her as noble as her husband; finally, the self-sacrifice fulfills her heroic status. In The Only Jealousy of Emer, similar to Deirdre, Emer is more qualified than her two other adversaries: more faithful than Fand and more courageous than Eithne Inguba. More importantly, by her renunciation of her love, Emer proves to be an ideal counterpart to the hero. Thus, three aspects that the two heroines have in common are to be examined: they are equal to their husbands rather than their subordinates; moreover, both of them keep their love noble; consequently, Yeats hoped that as great models, Deirdre and Emer might awaken the national awareness to be restored to modern Ireland.

Thus the Celtic goddess, often portrayed as a beautiful and mature woman, was associated with nature and the spiritual essence of nature, while also representing the contrasting yet cyclic aspects of prosperity, wisdom, death, and regeneration. Yours divine voice Whispers the poetry of magic that flow through the wind, Like sweet-tasting water of the Boyne. Some of the essential female deities are Morrigan , Badb , and Nemain the three war goddess who appeared as ravens during battles. The Gods told us to do it. Thus over time, Belenus was also associated with the healing and regenerative aspects of Apollo , with healing shrines dedicated to the dual entities found across western Europe, including the one at Sainte-Sabine in Burgundy and even others as far away as Inveresk in Scotland. In most ancient mythical narratives, we rarely come across divine entities that are solely associated with language. Most of the records were taken around the 11 th century.
