University of Florida Thesis Or Dissertation Formatting IRISH MUSIC AND HOME-RULE POLITICS, 1800-1922 By AARON C. KEEBAUGH A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2011 1 © 2011 Aaron C. Keebaugh 2 ―I received a letter from the American Quarter Horse Association saying that I was the only member on their list who actually doesn‘t own a horse.‖—Jim Logg to Ernest the Sincere from Love Never Dies in Punxsutawney To James E. Schoenfelder 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A project such as this one could easily go on forever. That said, I wish to thank many people for their assistance and support during the four years it took to complete this dissertation. First, I thank the members of my committee—Dr. Larry Crook, Dr. Paul Richards, Dr. Joyce Davis, and Dr. Jessica Harland-Jacobs—for their comments and pointers on the written draft of this work. I especially thank my committee chair, Dr. David Z. Kushner, for his guidance and friendship during my graduate studies at the University of Florida the past decade. I have learned much from the fine example he embodies as a scholar and teacher for his students in the musicology program. I also thank the University of Florida Center for European Studies and Office of Research, both of which provided funding for my travel to London to conduct research at the British Library. I owe gratitude to the staff at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. for their assistance in locating some of the materials in the Victor Herbert Collection. Raymond White was kind enough to allow me access to his then- unpublished catalogue of the items in that collection. Several of my Irish colleagues deserve thanks for their comments on my work on Shamus O'Brien, which I presented at the First International Conference on Irish Music and Musicians at Durham University in July 2010. Their suggestions were useful for the work that went into the later chapters of this study. Maestro Evans Haile deserves special thanks for lending me his complete score to Victor Herbert's Eileen. I am grateful to Bill Dean, who, during my work as a music writer for The Gainesville Sun, provided advice on my writing and opened my mind to the wider world of music journalism. I am a better writer due to his guidance. Dr. John Duff also deserves thanks for his valuable musicianship and instruction on the highland bagpipes. 4 Our numerous trips to band practice and to contests around the South provided a welcome and educational diversion from this project. I thank my friends and family for their support during my years at the University of Florida. My wife Cari especially provided wisdom, a fresh pair of eyes, and loving encouragement over the past several years. Finally, I thank my dear friend Jim Schoenfelder for his support and tremendous wit. My interest in Irish politics, though I didn‘t realize it at the time, stemmed from our talks together while goofing off in the faculty lounge at Bishop Guilfoyle High School over ten years ago. This project is dedicated to him and our outstanding friendship. 5 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Doctor of Philosophy IRISH MUSIC AND HOME-RULE POLITICS, 1800-1922 By Aaron C. Keebaugh December 2011 Chair: David Z. Kushner Major: Music For much of the nineteenth-century, the Irish question of self government played a central role in British politics. Indeed, the Catholic Emancipation movement of the early part of century, the Potato famine of the late 1840s, and the Home-Rule bills between 1880 and 1914, blocked the legislative process entirely. As a result, the Irish issue spread into public life throughout Britain, the United States, and other corners of the English speaking world. This study explores the role that Home-Rule politics played in select Irish folksong collections and Irish-themed art music between 1800 and 1922. Two figures especially loom large in the study: Charles Villiers Stanford and Victor Herbert. Both were born in Ireland,

Universidad Complutense, Madrid [email protected] Abstract Johann Georg Hagen, the first Jesuit director of the Vatican Observatory, carried out an abundant correspondence with other directors of Jesuit observatories between 1906 and 1930. Letters of his correspondents preserved at the Vatican Observatory and a few of his letters at other observatories provide interesting information about the work and problems of Jesuit astronomical observatories at that time. Letters survive from observatories in Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia. A short presentation is given concerning the relationship between Hagen and the other directors and the con- tents of the correspondence. Keywords John G.

  • The Irish Diaspora in Britain & America
    Reflections on 1969 Lived Experiences & Living history (Discussion 6) The Irish Diaspora in Britain & America: Benign or Malign Forces? compiled by Michael Hall ISLAND 123 PAMPHLETS 1 Published January 2020 by Island Publications 132 Serpentine Road, Newtownabbey BT36 7JQ © Michael Hall 2020 [email protected] http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/islandpublications The Fellowship of Messines Association gratefully acknowledge the assistance they have received from their supporting organisations Printed by Regency Press, Belfast 2 Introduction The Fellowship of Messines Association was formed in May 2002 by a diverse group of individuals from Loyalist, Republican and other backgrounds, united in their realisation of the need to confront sectarianism in our society as a necessary means of realistic peace-building. The project also engages young people and new citizens on themes of citizenship and cultural and political identity. Among the different programmes initiated by the Messines Project was a series of discussions entitled Reflections on 1969: Lived Experiences & Living History. These discussions were viewed as an opportunity for people to engage positively and constructively with each other in assisting the long overdue and necessary process of separating actual history from some of the myths that have proliferated in communities over the years. It was felt important that current and future generations should hear, and have access to, the testimonies and the reflections of former protagonists while these opportunities still exist. Access to such evidence would hopefully enable younger generations to evaluate for themselves the factuality of events, as opposed to some of the folklore that passes for history in contemporary society.

  • Castletown List 55
    National Library of Ireland Collection List No. 55 Lord Castletown Papers (Mss 35,295-332) (Accession 2503) Compiled by Mary Colley, 2000 The papers of Bernard Edward Barnaby FitzPatrick (1848-1937), 2nd Baron Castletown of Upper Ossory, consisting of correspondence and papers mainly relating to his literary and cultural activities and his political involvements. There is also a relatively small amount of material relating to the management of his estates. Introduction The Lord Castletown Papers were mainly generated by Bernard Edward Barnaby FitzPatrick (1848-1937), 2nd Baron Castletown of Upper Ossory, who was descended from a branch of the illustrious family of Mac Giolla Phádraig. In Gaelic times this branch of the FitzPatricks ruled the area of the present counties Laois and Kilkenny, successive heads of the family being styled chiefs or lords of Upper Ossory. The chiefs were generally politically adroit, and managed to retain their extensive estates even in the most adverse circumstances. For instance, in the reign of Henry VIII, Barnaby (or Bryan) FitzPatrick made a timely submission, whereupon he had his estates re-granted and was subsequently created Baron of Upper Ossory, a title that remained in the family for a century and a half. In the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, heads of the family were again ennobled and held the titles Baron Gowran and Earl of Upper Ossory. Following a break in the succession, in 1869 John Wilson FitzPatrick was created 1st Baron Castletown of Upper Ossory. On his death in 1883, his only son, Bernard, succeeded to the title as 2nd Lord Castletown, and inherited the extensive family estate based on Granston Manor in Queen's County, the present Co.

  • Works by Robert Graves in Special Collections, University of Otago Library 2012
    Robert Graves Poeta 1895-1985 Works by Robert Graves in Special Collections, University of Otago Library 2012 1 There is no now for us but always, Nor any I but we – Who have loved only and love only From the hilltops to the sea In our long turbulence of nights and days: A calendar from which no lover strays In proud perversity. Envoi. (Collected Poems, 1975) On the headstone that marks his grave at Deyá, Marjorca, there is the simple: ‘Robert Graves Poeta 1895-1985’. And it was this aspect that attracted Charles Brasch, editor, patron and poet, to the works of Graves, calling him ‘among the finest English poets of our time, one of the few who is likely to be remembered as a poet.’ Indeed, not only did Brasch collect his own first editions volumes written by Graves, but he encouraged the University of Otago Library to buy more. Thanks to Brasch, Special Collections at the University of Otago now has an extensive collection of works (poetry, novels, essays, children’s books) by him. Born at Wimbledon in 1895, Graves had an Irish father, a German mother, an English upbringing, and a classical education. Enlisting in the Royal Welch Fusiliers, Graves faced the horrors of World War I. He was wounded by shrapnel, left for dead and later able to read his own obituary in The London Times. In 1929, he penned Goodbye To All That, his war-time autobiography which gave him success and fame. And aside from his regular output of poetry books, he wrote historical novels such as I Claudius (1934) and Claudius the God (1934), The White Goddess (1948), the heady study on matriarchal worship and poetry that in the sixties became a source book for readers of the Whole Earth Catalog, and the very successful The Greek Myths (1955).
