  • What's in an Irish Name?
    What’s in an Irish Name? A Study of the Personal Naming Systems of Irish and Irish English Liam Mac Mathúna (St Patrick’s College, Dublin) 1. Introduction: The Irish Patronymic System Prior to 1600 While the history of Irish personal names displays general similarities with the fortunes of the country’s place-names, it also shows significant differences, as both first and second names are closely bound up with the ego-identity of those to whom they belong.1 This paper examines how the indigenous system of Gaelic personal names was moulded to the requirements of a foreign, English-medium administration, and how the early twentieth-century cultural revival prompted the re-establish- ment of an Irish-language nomenclature. It sets out the native Irish system of surnames, which distinguishes formally between male and female (married/ un- married) and shows how this was assimilated into the very different English sys- tem, where one surname is applied to all. A distinguishing feature of nomen- clature in Ireland today is the phenomenon of dual Irish and English language naming, with most individuals accepting that there are two versions of their na- me. The uneasy relationship between these two versions, on the fault-line of lan- guage contact, as it were, is also examined. Thus, the paper demonstrates that personal names, at once the pivots of individual and group identity, are a rich source of continuing insight into the dynamics of Irish and English language contact in Ireland. Irish personal names have a long history. Many of the earliest records of Irish are preserved on standing stones incised with the strokes and dots of ogam, a 1 See the paper given at the Celtic Englishes II Colloquium on the theme of “Toponyms across Languages: The Role of Toponymy in Ireland’s Language Shifts” (Mac Mathúna 2000).

  • Blasket Islands SAC (Site Code: 2172)
    NPWS Blasket Islands SAC (site code: 2172) Conservation objectives supporting document - Marine Habitats and Species Version 1 February 2014 Introduction Blasket Islands SAC is designated for the marine Annex I qualifying interest of Reefs and Submerged or partially submerged sea caves (Figure 1 and 2) and the Annex II species Phoca vitulina (harbour porpoise) and Halichoerus grypus (grey seal). A BioMar survey of this site was carried out in 1996 (Picton and Costello, 1997) and a subtidal reef survey was undertaken in 2010 (Aquafact, 2010); InfoMar (Ireland’s national marine mapping programme) data from the site was also reviewed. These data were used to determine the physical and biological nature of the Annex I reef habitat. The distribution and ecology of intertidal or subtidal seacaves has not previously been the subject of scientific investigation in Ireland and the extents of very few individual caves have been mapped in detail. Analysis of the imagery from the Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources coastal oblique aerial survey yielded some information concerning the expected location of partly submerged seacaves in Blasket Islands SAC (Figure 2). There is no additional information available concerning the likely distribution of permanently submerged seacaves in the site at present. Whilst surveys undertaken in the UK indicate the structure and functions of seacaves are largely influenced by hydrodynamic forces and water quality, no such information is yet available for Ireland. A considerable number of records of harbour porpoise have been gathered within this site and adjacent waters off the south-west coast of Ireland, particularly over the last two decades (e.g.

  • Tradition and Modernity on Great Blasket Island, Ireland
    Tradition and Modernity on Great Blasket Island, Ireland Chris Fennell University of Illinois This interdisciplinary project in archaeology, history, and landscape analysis seeks to examine the lifeways of residents of the Great Blasket Island (Blascaod Mór in the Irish language) off the southwest coast of County Kerry of the Republic of Ireland in the period of 1500 CE through the early 1900s. The lifeways of the residents on the Great Blasket Island were the focus of concerted, nationalist mythology construction by proponents of the new Republic of Ireland in the early 1900s. Those lifeways, supported by maritime and agrarian subsistence, were hailed by nationalist advocates as representing an authentic Irish cultural identity uncorrupted by the impacts of British colonialism, modernity, or new consumer markets. The islanders’ sense of social identities and history likely also embraced perceptions of the prehistoric and medieval features of their cultural landscape. The Blasket Islands are part of the Gaeltacht areas of communities that continue to teach and speak in Gaelic language dialects (Figure 1). Figure 1. Image courtesy Wikimedia commons. 1 Historical Contexts Great Blasket is estimated to have reached a peak population of approximately 170 to 200 people in the early 1900s. The island’s population decreased during the following decades, as emigration to America or to the mainland towns of the new Republic of Ireland drew families away. The few remaining residents departed the island in 1953. New research has begun to examine the cultural landscape and archaeological record of their lifeways from 1500 through the early 1900s (Figures 2, 3) (Coyne 2010; DAHG 2009).
