Patricia and collagues,

I too was at a Catholic grammar school in the north, at an earlier period,
the 60s, but Irish was not compulsory. My recollection is that it was only
in Christian Brothers' Schools that everyone had to do Irish. In diocesan
grammar schools that was not the case. Mind you, there was'nt a great deal
of choice at my school - Irish or Greek. Guess which one most boys took,
although I was in the Greek minority!! Certainly my recollection of friends
taking Irish is that the subject was not resented - going to Donegal every
summer was a plus. I too can't recall usefulness every being thought of,
except in relation to going to UCD where Irish was required to matriculate.
But then many of us didn't see any point to algebra. My choice of textbook
for the river...

Cheers,
Frank

Dear Paddy,

A northern angle..

Having read Carmel's account of her experience of having to learn Irish, I
wonder if any study has been done comparing the situation in the north with
that in the south. I know there has been work done on the increase in
interest among northerners in the Irish language and the increasing numbers
of Irish schools in the north and how there have been some conflicts around
different agendas for such schools.

My understanding is that the Irish language was compulsory too in Catholic
schools in the north, in the grammar sector anyhow. When I was at secondary
school (74-81) but I don't think this is the case anymore, everyone had to
do an Irish 0 level and other languages if desired, but Irish was
compulsory. I don't recall any hostility towards either the language or this
practice. I loved learning Irish and reading books in the original and
although many of the texts were of an Ireland that did not mirror our
contempory experiences, the general perception was of finding out something
of Ireland's history as well, through various texts. Although learning Irish
was largely of no obvious later career value, this was not something which
anyone seemed to consider at the time, as I suppose learning Irish was
implicitly considered a part of our identities as Irish northern
disenfranchised Catholics and we were getting an opportunity which our
parents had been denied. I was struck when I moved to do a degree in Dublin
then in 1981 to find that southerners had a downer on the language and
seemed to have internalised notions of the inferiority of the language which
was not the case among my northern peer group. As teenagers we couldn't get
enough of going to the Donegal gaeltacht. We also felt our (Ulster) Irish
was superior to the language of southerners... And the only book I was ever
tempted to throw in a river was Wordsworth's Lyrical Ballads..

So I wonder what this adds, if anything to this discussion?

Subject: New book notice re Ulster / Irish question


Find attached a promotional notice for my work
FOR PROTESTANT SELF-DETERMINATION: the key to the ULster question.

Yours truly,
CMH.



NEW BOOK NOTICE

A treatise on the resolution of Ulster?s historic antagonisms, on the
attaining of Irish nationality, on the centrality of the land question in
Ireland?s affairs, and on the nature and interrelationship of Irish
?nationalism? and Irish ?unionism?.

TITLE:
For Protestant Self-Determination
THE KEY TO THE ULSTER QUESTION

AUTHOR: Christopher M. Hussey

PRICE: ? 5.00 (retail)

ISBN: 0-9510218-1-8

In the Foreword the author writes: ?Despite the blizzard of books and
analyses of recent decades, understanding of the Irish problem has, if
anything, regressed since the pre-partition era of the Home Rule controversy
and of classical economics. Equally, where one might reasonably expect to
see a substantial separatist position staked out, one finds an intellectual
black hole. This work is an attempt to remedy that situation?.
The back cover states that the work ?not only aspires to map out a thorough
resolution of the Irish Question, but aspires to do so based on a long-term
examination of the dynamics driving the history and politics of Ireland?.
This lucid and rigorous work is a must for those interested in the Ulster
conflict, in Irish history, politics and society, in land economics and in
conflict studies.

CONTENTS
1. Ulster Society: Description and Prescription
The roots of the intractable nature of the ?Troubles?.
Complementary of the intercommunal relationship the key to a resolution.
2. An Unfair and Undemocratic Proposal?
Protestant self-determination in Northern Ireland justified as a fair
democratic and vital component of an intercommunal compact.
3. The Constitutional Position of Northern Ireland
The present constitutional position a source of instability.
4. Towards a United Nationality
The development of a United Ulster a prerequisite for a united Irish
nationality.
5. The Land: Mother Earth, Mother Ireland
The roots of the antagonistic hierarchical divisions of Irish society lie in
the land privatisation of the historic plantations.
6. A Land War in Ulster
The economic basis to the ?zero sum? character of Ulster?s antagonisms.
7. Policing Northern Ireland
For a dual security apparatus.
8. Electoral Strategies: North and South
The logic of power sharing applied to political organization.
Ending the revolving door duopoly in the South.
9. The Catholics, ?Nationalism? and Jacobitism
Catholic ?nationalism? a legitimising and complementary posture.
The Jacobite-type coercion of the protestant North by the British state
being the essential catholic strategy ? cf. John Redmond, Civil Rights,
PIRA, etc.
10. The Protestants, ?Unionism? and Williamism
A corresponding sketch of complementary protestant attitudes down the years.
11. The context of the 1916 Rising
The subsequent republican physical force tradition entirely at variance with
the theory and practice of the 1916 leaders.

The work is not a primer and, being an interpretation, assumes an
acquaintance with Irish history and politics. It also uses ample quotes from
established works as stepping stones in the developmernt of the argument.

An Irishman's Diary
By Kevin Myers

'Item one: a head. Item two: a parapet. Take item one, and raise it above
item
two. And then get it blown off. How? As follows.

The forthcoming report on compulsory Irish by Adrian Kenny claims what most
of us have known for years - that the entire programme has been a complete
disaster. Senator Joe O'Toole, who wrote the foreword, declares with a
certain
relish that this judgment will get the zealots out of the woodwork when it
appears next moth.'

Subject: Re: Ir-D Language policy, Ireland 6

I find this discussion very interesting and want to add a few points to
my earlier post. I agree absolutely that any language ought to be
introduced at an early age and I think that the Dept. of Education was
correct in doing this. But I think they missed the boat for the
majority of students in that they did not make the Irish language
'relevant' to the everyday experiences of Irish children or to what was
socially going on at time. Also, the fact that it was compulsory to get
a pass in Irish to pass in Leaving Cert and matriculate was a torn in
the side of most students - not that it was hard to pass, it wasn't, but
time and again it was said that 'well, you can be a maths genius and
fail because of Irish' - this was a fairly common attitude. Resentment
grew from this and more so as students taking all their papers in Irish
had a 10% bonus added to their marks!
On Paddy's point about growing up in the north - I think this is worth
discussion. That was obviously a different experience and culture and
language played a different role. In Dublin, where I was growing up
anyway, we were cock sure of ourselves as 'Irish' . Middle class, with
the world at our feet, we felt. It was a time we lauded the heroes of
1916 and knew that we had beaten the Brits and to be Irish was not to be
second rate. ' Irish by birth and a Dub by the grace of God' was pretty
much the feeling! So the language was not something that we needed to
affirm ourselves. On the contrary, we were being urged to look east to
Europe and the developing EC and to take our place with the nations of
the world. In the classroom the Irish language was the voice of 'old'
Ireland, as it was presented. I agree that now I find many of those old
stories fascinating and I have grown to love the language [actually have
taught it on occasion] but I am trying to make the point that to the
kids in the classroom it was simply dull to read about isolated rural
communities living without any modern conveniences. This was a mistake
because to revive a language takes more than just teaching it from age
4. I believe it has to have relevance to the everyday social lives of
the people. As it was presented in the classroom Irish represented an
Ireland that we were trying and being urged to leave behind - and the
Celtic Tiger has certainly done that!

Subject: people of color in irish drama

Greetings,

I have a student who wants to write a research paper on people of color
in irish drama, meaning either Irish playwrights of color or plays
dealing with the subject. I could only think of Gabriel Gbadamosi, who
is of Nigerian/Irish descent.

I'm wondering if anyone out there on the list might have some
suggestions?

Many thanks,

Sara Brady,

In response to your request for information on people of color in Irish
drama you could look at Roddy Doyle's recent play 'Guess Who's Coming for
the Dinner. Premiered at last October's Duiblin Theatre Festival with
Maynard Eziashi as Ben, the black boyfriend of a young Dublin woman, it is
inspired and based loosely on the 1960's film of almost the same title.

Although it was a sellout at the festival I was unimpressed.

There are 2 plays by Dion Boucicault, Jessie Brown or The Relief of Lucknow
(1858), and - perhaps more significant - The Octoroon , or Life in Louisiana
(1859).

Both plays are in Peter Thomson's edition, Plays by Dion Boucicault,
Cambridge UP, 1984, 1989. Thomson says that 'For a playwright to write a
play about slavery in America in 1859 was necessarily to take a risk...'
The plays pre-figure the application of the devices of comic melodrama to
Irish themes in The Collen Bawn (1860), Arrah-na-Pogue (1864), The
Shaughraun (1874 and also in Thomson's collection).

Subject: Query for the Ir-D list


Dear Paddy
I have had the following query from a colleague in Dublin and wondered if
anyone on the list could help out?

Breda Gray

In 2001, I undertook a study on the literacy and language needs of asylum
seekers for the Department of Education and Science in Ireland. I am
currently writing up the results and need to draw on the experiences of
Irish emigrants in my analysis. In particular, I am looking for literature
pertaining to Irish adults who went abroad with little or no literacy skills
in Irish or English and who then successfully acquired them when they
emigrated (either through education or autonomous learning) - Tayna Ward.

From Daryl Adair
planetadair[at]pop.ozemail.com.au

Subject: A History of St Patrick's Day

Dear colleagues,

My name is Daryl Adair of the University of Canberra, Australia. I am a new
member of the Irish Diaspora list. When I joined, Patrick O'Sullivan kindly
mentioned to me that he had advised list members of the publication of my
book (co-authored with Mike Cronin) The Wearing of the Green: A History of
St Patrick's Day. I've now tracked down this message (reproduced below), so
I'd like to respond to a couple of the thoughtful points that Patrick has
raised.

(1) Publisher's blurb. I agree that the blurb is excessive; Mike and I
protested as much. So I'm pleased that Patrick has noted our far more modest
claims in the book itself.

(2) Confusion over book title. "The Wearing of the Green" was the choice of
the publisher. We had suggested "Parading the Green" because that was
consistent with our focus on 17 March parading. We were also concerned that
the phrase "The Wearing of the Green" had appeared on other books. But the
publisher was excited about this title because it could be linked to Dion
Boucicault's well known poem of the same name.

(3) 'Ownership' of St Patrick's Day. This is, indeed, a key theme of the
book. Its inspiration comes from several historians of the Irish diaspora,
though most notably those interested in the Australian experience - Patrick
O'Farrell, Ken Inglis, and Oliver MacDonagh.

Finally, Mike Cronin and I hope our history of St Patrick's Day is readable
and of practical use. It was certainly not conceived as the 'final word' on
the subject! It is but one constribution towards the study of a
fascinating, ever-changing ritual, and our collective understanding of the
Irish diaspora generally.

Cheers,

Daryl Adair

A History of St Patrick's Day

ISBN:

There is more information and contact point at...
http://www.routledge.com/

On the theme of publisher's blurb... Some of my contacts have been
irritated by this publisher's blurb making excessive claims. The authors
themselves are more circumspect - 'We make no claim about having produced a
conclusive or even comprehensive historical analysis of St. Patrick's Day'
(p xxiii)

It is in fact an Irish Diaspora Study, one of the few that we possess -
looking at the different ways that St. Patrick's Day has been owned and
used, for the most part over the past 200 years, throughout the Irish
Diaspora. There are some little gaps that specialists might notice, but a
mass of material has been digested, and is thoroughly referenced. Patrick
O'Farrell is in there, as one of the people who has previously considered
the question of 'ownership' of the Day.

So, I think the book works. As an intriguing Irish Diaspora Study. There
are always tensions within a diaspora, between the diaspora and the
homeland, and between the different arms of the diaspora. The Irish
tradition has been to disguise, or at least not to study or give prominence
to, such tensions. Cronin and Adair have found a way to explore and make
visible tensions within one diaspora.

Highly recommended.

(Note: There is a possibility of confusion - another recent book with a
similar title is Michael Herbert, The Wearing of the Green: A Political
History of the Irish in Manchester, ISBN 0-954-378-0-9, published by The
Irish in Britain Representation Group.)

From: Dave Featherstone

Conference of Irish Geographers, May 3rd - 5th 2002 At the Academy for
Irish Cultural Heritages, University of Ulster, Magee Campus.

Session on:
Historical Geographies of Atlantic Resistances and Irish Subaltern
Politics

Recent work has emphasised the importance of Irish subaltern movements and
their connections with Atlantic routes and networks of radical ideas,
practices and experiences (Linebaugh and Rediker, 2000, Rodgers, 1996).

This session aims to bring together researchers working on the historical
geographies of Irish subaltern politics. It particularly seeks
contributions on the relations of Irish resistance politics to Atlantic
networks and routes of resistance. The session seeks contributions
relating to multiple forms of subaltern resistances. These would include
the politics of labour combinations and unions, of agrarian politics and
secret societies, of nationalisms, contestations of gender relations and
the political activity of marginal groups like travellers or migrant
labourers. Contributions are also sought on how subaltern struggles
contested dominant spatialities and ways of ordering environments and
materials. The session seeks contributions on the exclusions constituted
by subaltern struggles, such as the masculinities performed through
particular forms of labour politics, as well as on the forms of
co-operation and contestation of unequal power relations.

This is maybe a separate train of thought, rather than a direct contribution
to the 'people of colour in drama' strand. Sorry - 'color...'

I recall that Dale Cockrell, Demons of Disorder: Early Blackface Minstrels
and Their World (New York: Cambridge University Press, 1997) suggested that
one of the routes towards the creation of the 'blackface' minstrelsy lay in
the many thousands of 'blackface' roles in legitimate stage drama. Notably
of course Shakespeare's Othello. I do not have Cockrell's book here - but I
wonder if that book might not offer a way of quickly noting 'blackface'
roles in stage drama...

Peter Quinn's novel, Banished Children of Eve, makes much of Irish
involvement in and creation of blackface minstrelsy - so much that we might
wish that he had further followed that nineteeth century tradition and given
us a novel with footnotes...

There are some footnotes in Noel Ignatiev, How the Irish became white - but
I have never seen this Irish involvement adequately addressed or
theorised... Oh I don't know - maybe Homi Bhaba on 'hybridity', 'mimicry'.
Or maybe it was just one of those things...
