A Handbook of Irish Dances by James George O ́Keeffe Pdf

"It is with a feeling of anything but satisfaction that one arises from a perusal of extant accessible Gaelic literature for any assistance in tracing the origin of Irish dances. It may be candidly said that there are no allusions whatever to dancing either in old or mediaeval Irish literature. The one text to which an enquirer would naturally first turn, with some degree of confidence, for information on the subject is that entitled the Fair of Loc Carman, which deals with an ancient festival held at Loc Carman, the Wexford of to-day. In this very old and interesting text there are to be found some vivid descriptions of a number of entertainers, and of musicians in particular, who frequented the Fair, but there is no mention made of the man of dance. It is true that the name Fer Cengal, occurring in that text, has been interpreted by some as a dancer, and his dance has even been compared to the German Springendantz, which was a song and dance combined. The name, however, suggests an acrobat rather than a dancer, but as it does not appear elsewhere in Irish literature it would be unwise to build any theories on it." [...] This fantastic historic book on Irish Dances with general remarks, definitions, explanations and descriptions is a reprint of the originally published work from 1902."

A Handbook of Irish Dances by J. C. O'Keeffe Pdf

Excerpt from A Handbook of Irish Dances: With an Essay on Their Origin and History IT has been suggested that the word Cronan, which is mentioned in the sixth century by St. Colman of Cloyne, originally meant a kind of singing accompaniment for dancing. There is no evidence, however, in support of this suggestion. It is now generally accepted that the word originally meant a musical bass, -and, later, a curious kind of nasal singing accomplished with the mouth shut. To the latter may possibly be ascribed the origin of what is known as the traditional style of Irish singing.

Back to the Present, Forward to the Past by International Association for the Study of Irish Literatures. Conference Pdf

The island of Ireland, north and south, has produced a great diversity of writing in both English and Irish for hundreds of years, often using the memories embodied in its competing views of history as a fruitful source of literary inspiration. Placing Irish literature in an international context, these two volumes explore the connection between Irish history and literature, in particular the Rebellion of 1798, in a more comprehensive, diverse and multi-faceted way than has often been the case in the past. The fifty-three authors bring their national and personal viewpoints as well as their critical judgements to bear on Irish literature in these stimulating articles. The contributions also deal with topics such as Gothic literature, ideology, and identity, as well as gender issues, connections with the other arts, regional Irish literature, in particular that of the city of Limerick, translations, the works of Joyce, and comparisons with the literature of other nations. The contributors are all members of IASIL (International Association for the Study of Irish Literatures). Back to the Present: Forward to the Past. Irish Writing and History since 1798 will be of interest to both literary scholars and professional historians, but also to the general student of Irish writing and Irish culture.

Irish London by Richard Kirkland Pdf

In the years following the Irish Famine (1845–52), London became one of the cities of Ireland. The number of Irish in London swelled to over 100,000 and from this mass migration emerged a distinctive and vibrant culture based on a shared sense of history, identity and experience. In this book, Richard Kirkland brings together elements in Irish London's culture and history that had previously only been understood separately or indeed largely overlooked (as in the case of women's' contributions to London Irish politics and culture). In particular, Kirkland makes resonant cultural connections between Irish and cockney performers in the music halls, Irish trade fairs, temperance marches, the Fenian dynamite war of the 1880s, St Patrick's Day events, and the later cultural agitation of revivalists such as W.B. Yeats and Katharine Tynan. Irish London: A Cultural History 1850–1916 is both a significant contribution to our understanding of Irish emigrant communities in London at this time and an insightful case study for the comparative fields of cultural history and urban migration studies.

Conflict, Diaspora, and Empire by Darragh Gannon Pdf

The actions of Irish nationalists in Britain are often characterised as a 'sideshow' to the revolutionary events in Ireland between 1912 and 1922. This original study argues, conversely, that Irish nationalism in Britain was integral to contemporary Irish and British assessments of the Irish Revolution between the Third Home Rule Bill and the Anglo-Irish Treaty. Darragh Gannon charts the development of Irish nationalism across the Irish Sea over the course of a historic decade in United Kingdom history – from constitutional crisis, to war, and revolution. The book documents successive Home Rule and IRA campaigns in Britain coordinated by John Redmond and Michael Collins respectively and examines the mobilisation of Irish migrant communities in British cities in response to major political crises, from the Ulster crisis to the First World War. Finally, Conflict, Diaspora, and Empire assesses the impacts of Irish nationalism in metropolitan Britain, from Whitehall to Westminster. The Irish Revolution, this study concludes, was defined by political conflicts, and cultures, across the Irish Sea.
