Our mission has not only endured, but has expanded because of the selfless generosity of alumni, parents, and friends, and their commitment to the long-term vitality of Archbishop Molloy High School. Each year, this charity ensures we can achieve our goals for scholarship, capital improvements, and having the resources and ability to design a top-flight curriculum that inspires an exemplary caliber of students and retains outstanding administrators, faculty, and staff. EVERY GIFT we have been blessed to receive sends a powerful message that you believe in Molloy and its Craig Katinas ‘93 mission. We are sincerely grateful to YOU – our donors – for playing an integral role in Molloy’s philanthropic legacy in support of teaching excellence and lifelong learning. The results are evident when considering that our graduating Class of 2016 received over $100,000,000 in scholarship to attend some of the most prestigious colleges and universities in the world. As we reflect on the 2015-16 year, we are truly thankful to our Community’s deep commitment to Molloy. It serves as inspiration and motivation for all of us to work harder for our students and continue the sacred work of protecting, sustaining, and growing our school. On behalf of the Marist Brothers, President Richard Karsten ’81, and the administration, faculty, staff, and students we serve it, is my honor to share with you Molloy’s annual report for 2015-2016. Within the pages that follow you will find our report on giving and honor roll for donors. We are deeply grateful for the time and wisdom you share with Molloy. What is the dream for many schools is our reality because of your sacrificial giving. This is how a strong and vibrant community is built; this is why we are more than a mission that serves just four years of your life. We serve a lifetime. Non scholae sed vitae Craig M.

This article examines the rate and nature of female representation before the board of trustees for the forfeited estates in Ireland, established by the Act of Resumption in . The legis- lation was introduced by a discontented English parliament to nullify William III’s grants of forfeited Irish land, which he awarded after victory over James II in the War of the Two Kings (–). The act’s remit extended well beyond the resumption of freehold land, incorporating real property, jud- gements, securities, obligations, debts, and goods and chattels forfeited by outlawed Jacobites. It was also retroactive, as all parties with a legitimate title to a property that predated February were entitled to enter a claim. Using a printed list of , claims submitted to the trustees, this article analyses the commonality of female claimants, considers their economic, social, and marital status, and identifies the legal or equitable basis for their representation before the trustees. In doing so, it examines prenuptial and familial practices in post-Restoration Ireland, underlines the economic importance of marriage and inheritance as means of conveyance, and suggests that women’s and female minors’ successful claims provided a number of Catholic families with a lifeline in the early eighteenth century.

  • Walking Together in Faith… Sunday April 14Th Is Palm Sunday and Marks the Beginning of Holy Week
    Established 1967 www.lucannewsletter.ie Sub. 80c Sunday 14th April 2019 Walking together in faith… Sunday April 14th is Palm Sunday and marks the beginning of Holy Week. During Holy Week Christians celebrate the saving events of the passion and death of Our Lord Jesus Christ, culminating in our celebration of his glorious resurrection on Easter Sunday. The four Christian Churches in Lucan will each mark these days according to their own traditions but at the heart of each manner of celebration is the saving reality of Christ’s sacrifice for our sake, a true point of shared faith and solidarity that transcends historical divisions. Each Good Friday the Lucan churches come together to walk in an expression of shared faith behind the Cross of Jesus. The walk begins at 12.00 noon when we assemble in St. Mary’s Catholic Church for scripture reading and reflection with some hymns. The walk then moves down the hill to the Methodist Church – but this year because of ongoing work in the Methodist church we will assemble in the small park opposite to continue the scripture sharing and reflections. We then proceed down to Lucan Presbyterian Church where we pause once again to share the Word and reflect. Our final destination is St. Andrew’s Church of Ireland where we conclude our scripture journey and prayers of reflection, and where thanks to the hospitality of the congregation at St. Andrew’s we share a cuppa before returning home. It is a special moment each year and one that we would encourage members of each congregation to make a special effort for.

  • The Meanderthalltale of the Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin in Joyce’S Notetaking
    GENETIC JOYCE STUDIES – Issue 16 (Spring 2016) The meanderthalltale of the Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin in Joyce’s notetaking Viviana Mirela Braslasu and Robbert-Jan Henkes The Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin, written as a meandering series of footnotes and side notes and appendixes, reminiscent of the Night Lessons chapter in Finnegans Wake, looms large in Joyce’s 1930 notebook VI.B.29. The merchant-historian Charles Haliday published his account of Dublin as a Viking seaport in 1881 (republished 1884, M. H. Gill & Son, 50 Upper Sackville Street, Dublin), but it’s not only about the era of the ninth century till 1014, when the Vikings after the battle of Clontarf were sent back to sea. We learn immediately that the pyramids in Egypt were called, in the middle ages, ‘the seven granaries of S. Joseph’ and almost one-third of the book is taken up by equally heavily footnoted appendixes, about the ancient name of Dublin. Haliday’s reveling in details and his unique inability to stick to the story is one of the things that must have appealed to Joyce in the book. In VI.B.29, Joyce read only up to page 173, but that was, as Vincent Deane mentions in his introduction, because Joyce had already read the book in the Spring of 1925 and made notes in VI.B.7. 1 A random double page of The Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin It now turns out that Joyce not only made notes in VI.B.7, but also in the next notebook, the non- extant VI.D.2 of April-May 1925, and (on rereading a passage) in Notebook VI.B.8 of July- September of that year – with in Notebook VI.B.9 of June-July 1925 perhaps an intermediate insight.

  • IRISH SURNAMES (Anglicized Or Anglo-Irish)
    IRISH SURNAMES (Anglicized or Anglo-Irish) The aim of this page is to provide English learners and people interested in names with a list of Irish surnames that will enable them to recognize an Irish name when they see one. There are three historical layers of Irish surnames. The first one consists of Gaelic names. Most of these names included Ó ('grandson') or Mac ('son'). The apostrophe in O' was added due to a misinterpretation of the morpheme as a reduced form of of. The second layer includes names brought over by the Normans, like Burke or Darcy. The prefix Fitz- ("fils = son") is Norman. The final layer was formed as a result of the English conquest, with English names or Scottish names – some of which were Celtic in the first place. The Gaelic names were anglicized as part of the deliberate destruction of Irish culture by the English. This meant that the original form had to be converted to an alien phonological system, or, in some cases, that the name was translated into English. Thus, Mac Gabhann was either anglicized as McGowan or translated as Smith (obviously, the surname Smith is frequent among third layer names). Beside these translations, many anglicized surnames are similar to English ones due to formal convergence, like Collins, Hayes or Hurley. Many surnames lost their Mac or Ó in the anglicisation process and thus variants with and without these 'particles' can be found. This is an informal list, which is not meant to be exhaustive or take account of the many variants a given surname may have.

  • Cultural Identity Represented: Celticness in Ireland
    Ethnologie Cultural identity represented: Celticness in Ireland Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Philosophischen Fakultät der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität zu Münster (Westf.) vorgelegt von Sabine Hezel aus Oberhausen 2006 Tag des Abschlusses: 16.11.2006 Dekan: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dr. Wichard Woyke Referent: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Josephus D.M. Platenkamp Korreferent: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Andreas Hartmann Acknowledgements I would like to express my thanks to all the people in Ireland who gave me valuable assistance in the researching of this thesis. First of all I want to thank Ann Tighe and Claire Sheridan. Without their friendship and help in distributing questionnaires and introducing me to a number of people, my stay in Galway would have been a lot less informative (and less pleasant). Thanks also to all the people who filled out questionnaires and were willing to give interviews. I am especially grateful for the opportunity to work in my own office, which was provided by the Department of Political Science and Sociology of the National University Ireland, Galway, and the help that was provided by Dr. Niall O Dochartaigh. Special thanks also to my PhD tutor Prof. Dr. J. Platenkamp. His continually constructive and helpful critique substantially contributed to the completion of this thesis. But above all my thanks go to Dave Hegarty. His love, patience and understanding were an inexhaustible source for strength and support. Ohne die Hilfe meiner Eltern, Anne und Johann Hezel, wäre es mir nicht möglich gewesen, ein Jahr in Irland zu verbringen. Ihnen gilt daher mein ganz besonderer Dank. Ohne ihr stets wohlwollendes Verständnis und ihre Unterstützung wäre diese Arbeit nicht zustande gekommen.
