'A Burden on the County': Madness, Institutions of Confinement and the Irish Patient in Victorian Lancashire
(2016)
Cox, Catherine; Marland, Hilary
'A Burden on the County': Madness, Institutions of Confinement and the Irish Patient in Victorian Lancashire
(2016)
Cox, Catherine; Marland, Hilary
Abstract:
This article explores the responses of the Poor Law authorities, asylum superintendents and Lunacy Commissioners to the huge influx of Irish patients into the Lancashire public asylum system, a system facing intense pressure in terms of numbers and costs, in the latter half of the nineteenth century. In particular, it examines the ways in which patients were passed, bartered and exchanged between two sets of institution—workhouses and asylums. In the mid-nineteenth century removal to asylums was advocated for all cases of mental disorder by asylum medical superintendents and the Lunacy Commissioners; by its end, asylum doctors were resisting the attempts of Poor Law officials to 'dump' increasing numbers of chronic cases into their wards. The article situates the Irish patient at the centre of tussles between those with a stake in lunacy provision as a group recognised as numerous, disruptive and isolated.

'A French Homer in America: James Joyce, Henri Matisse and George Macy’s Limited Editions Club "Ulysses"'
(2021)
Crispi, Luca
Abstract:
On 6 December 1933, Judge John M. Woolsey of the Southern District Court of New York determined that Ulysses was not obscene and thus could be lawfully imported into the United States. By the end of the following month, Bennett Cerf, co-founder of Random House, had published the first authorized edition of James Joyce’s book in America. Then, on 22 October 1935, George Macy, the visionary director of the Limited Editions Club (LEC) in New York, a subscription-based fine arts book press, published his Ulysses with illustrations by Henri Matisse. Given its limited availability and cost—then and now—most people have never seen this monumental deluxe edition of Ulysses, and so very few people have actually tried to read it, but that is probably beside the point. The LEC Ulysses is one of the most iconic modernist books ever produced and it presented an avant-garde reimagining of Homer’s Odyssey in text and images for an American readership that may not have been quite prepared for it.

'A Typical Collection of Lower Middle-Class Londoners'
(2018)
Howlin, Niamh
Abstract:
Roger Casement’s arrest, detention, trial and execution have been continually re-examined over the past century. There has been endless speculation over the use made of the so-called Black Diaries to discredit him and scupper his chances of having his sentence commuted. Another issue which has captured the imagination of scholars is whether or not he was convicted under a correct interpretation of the Treason Act 1351, or whether he was, as he claimed, ‘hanged by a comma.’ The adequacy of his legal representation and case management have also been questioned. This article, however, examines a previously ignored aspect of the Casement trial: the composition of the jury which tried and convicted him.

'A warre ... commodious': Dramatizing Islamic Schism in and after Tamburlaine
(2016)
Grogan, Jane
Abstract:
The purpose of this essay is to show how the Tamburlaine plays, by dramatizing intra-Islamic conflict between an insistently Persian Tamburlaine and his Turkish enemies, and Tamburlaine’s extraordinary military successes and imperial gains, engage intensely and provocatively with religious schism and imperial sovereignty, two abiding and interlocked political concerns of late-Elizabethan London. And they do so in full consciousness of their domestic relevance and interest, I argue. Marlowe’s exploration of Tamburlaine’s imperial drive thus articulates and tests his contemporaries’ interest in classical Persian models of empire and in the contemporary Persian schismatic stance within the Islamic world. Finally, my essay considers the surprisingly muted legacy of Marlowe’s dramatization of Islamic schism on the early modern stage. The essay concludes by focussing on the single play of the era that responds most strongly and sensitively to Marlowe’s Tamburlaine plays: The Travailes of ...

'All Changed, Changed Utterly'? Gender role attitudes and the feminisation of the Irish labour force
(2013)
O'Sullivan, Sara
Abstract:
One of the most dramatic changes in Irish society over the past two decades has been the substantial increase in the number of women participating in the paid workforce, and the concomitant change in gender roles. This gives rise to the question of whether this change in behaviour is also associated with changes in gender role attitudes. This paper uses data from the 1988, 1994 and 2002 International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) ‘Family and Changing Gender Roles’ module to examine changes in Irish gender role attitudes over this period. The analysis presented here demonstrates a decline in support for traditional gender roles over the period. A central issue explored is the relationship between attitudes and behaviour. Are increases in Irish women's labour force participation accompanied by a move away from traditional ideas about the gendered division of labour? Given the significance of ISSP as an important resource both for comparative and national level social science re...

'Because She Never Let Them In': Irish Immigration a Century Ago and Today
(2014)
Ó Gráda, Cormac
Abstract:
A century ago, and for most of the twentieth century, Ireland was a land of emigration, not immigration. However, in the space of less than a decade in the 2000s, Ireland was transformed from a homogeneous community, where non-native residents were in a very small minority, to one in which one-sixth of its inhabitants are foreign-born. The paper will compare immigration and attitudes towards immigrants in the very different Irelands of a century ago and of the present.

'Big, strong and healthy': Young children's identification of food and drink that contribute to healthy growth
(2013)
Tatlow-Golden, Mimi; Hennessy, Eilis; Dean, Moira; Hollywood, Lynsey
Abstract:
Growing awareness of the importance of healthy diet in early childhood makes it important to chart the development of children's understanding of food and drink. This study aimed to document young children's evaluation of food and drink as healthy, and to explore relationships with socioeconomic status, family eating habits, and children's television viewing. Data were gathered from children aged 3 to 5 years (n = 172) in diverse socioeconomic settings in Ireland, and from their parents. Results demonstrated that children had very high levels of ability to identify healthy foods as important for growth and health, but considerably less ability to reject unhealthy items, although knowledge of these increased significantly between ages 3 and 5. Awareness of which foods were healthy, and which foods were not, was not related to family socioeconomic status, parent or child home eating habits, or children's television viewing. Results highlighted the importance of ...

'El cazador-cazador' As Green Hunter and Renovator of Poetics in the Work of Miguel Delibes

'El cazador-cazador' As Green Hunter and Renovator of Poetics in the Work of Miguel Delibes
(2015)
Squires, Jeremy S.
Abstract:
The novelist Miguel Delibes (1920-2010) was both a passionate small-game hunter, who wrote several books on the subject during his lifetime, and a staunch ecologist. This article gives an analysis which reconciles hunting and biocentrism in his work and further probes the relation between the author's hunting books and his fiction. Beginning with a review of the history and culture of hunting in Spain, it emerges that Delibes applies an extremely strict definition to real hunting (la caza-caza), which he regards as a form of low-impact subsistence or self-provisioning and therefore ethically superior to stock farming. Additionally, the hunter identifies with animality and thereby overcomes the modern sense of apartness from nature. The article notes the stylistic affinities between Delibes' hunting books and his novels, beginning with Diario de un cazador (1955) - particularly their non-standard literary representations of nature - and suggests that the author renovated hi...

Twist, Joseph
Abstract:
Zafer Şenocak (geb. 1961) wies schon 1990 im Essay „Deutschland – Heimat für Türken? Ein Plädoyer für die Überwindung der Krise zwischen Okzident und Orient“ darauf hin, dass der Islam langsam wieder dabei war, in Europa zu einem Streitpunkt zu werden. Nach den islamistischen Terroranschlägen vom 11. September 2001 in den USA stehen die Muslime Deutschlands (und im Allgemeinen) unter zunehmendem Verdacht und, wie die Untersuchung von Reim Spielhaus aufzeigt, ersetzt die Bezeichnung minderheitlicher Deutscher als "Muslim“ nach 9/11 immer mehr die früher häufig verwendeten Etikettierungen wie "Gastarbeiter“, "Migrant“ oder "Türke". Dieses neue Etikett ist genauso einschränkend wie es die alten Etikettierungen sind, aber die Bezeichnung Muslim führt zudem zur diskriminierenden Verknüpfung zwischen (vermuteten) muslimischen Bürgern und Terroristen aus aller Welt, wie Yasemin Yildiz argumentiert.

'Fat is your fault': Gatekeepers to health, attributions of responsibility and the portrayal of gender in the Irish media representation of obesity
(2016)
De Brún, Aoife; McCarthy, Mary; McKenzie, Kenneth; McGloin, Aileen
Abstract:
We investigated the representation of obesity in the Irish media by conducting an inductive thematic analysis on newspaper articles (n=346) published in 2005, 2007 and 2009 sampled from six major publications. The study analysed the media's construction of gender in discussions of obesity and associated attributions of blame. Three dominant themes are discussed: the caricatured portrayal of gender, women as caregivers for others, and emotive parent-blaming for childhood obesity. Men were portrayed as a homogenous group; unaware and unconcerned about weight and health issues. Dieting and engaging in preventative health behaviours were portrayed as activities exclusively within the female domain and women were depicted as responsible for encouraging men to be healthy. Parents, specifically mothers, attracted much blame for childhood obesity and media messages aimed to shame and disgrace parents of obese children through use of emotive and evocative language. This portrayal was br...

'Headless Rome' and Hungry Goths: Herodotus and Titus Andronicus
(2016)
Grogan, Jane
Abstract:
This essay argues for the intertextual contribution of Book I of Herodotus's Histories to Titus Andronicus. Translated by B.R. in 1584, Herodotus’ account of the rise and fall of the founder of the ancient Persian empire, Cyrus the Great, holds topical resonances for the first audiences of Shakespeare's Roman play, resonances that the play seems to invite. Modeling Tamora on Herodotus' Tomyris and borrowing crucial elements of plot from the narratives surrounding Cyrus, Shakespeare's most productive response to Herodotus is his adaptation of the figure of the 'swallowing womb' from the well-known Herodotean account of Tomyris' revenge on Cyrus. Through it, Shakespeare explores the contentious and topical subjects of female rule and England's imperial aspirations. The essay further explores possible connections between Tamora and Queen Elizabeth through their shared iconography in the mold of the just avenger, Tomyris. Ultimately, I argue, the ...

'Homicides royaux' : the assassination of the Duc and Cardinal de Guise and the radicalization of French public opinion
(2012)
Wilkinson, Alexander S.
Abstract:
The propaganda campaign launched in response to the assassination of the Duc and Cardinal de Guise on the orders of Henri III in December 1588 was the largest waged in the history of sixteenth-century France. Yet, it has never been the subject of systematic investigation. This article aims to fill this historiographical lacuna by presenting a broad survey of the principal arguments and techniques employed both by the Royalists, who sought to justify the act, and the League who exploited the event to radicalise Catholic opinion against Henri III. It finds that while the king was partly unwilling and partly unable to engage in any serious attempt to influence public opinion, the League exploited the media to defend the Guises as Catholic martyrs and to discredit the king as a criminal and irreligious tyrant.

'I'd prefer to stay at home but I don't have a choice': Meeting Older People's Preference for Care: Policy, but what about practice?
(2016)
Donnelly, Sarah; O'Brien, Marita; Begley, Emer; Brennan, John
Abstract:
Background: Research indicates that most older people would prefer to live in their own homes and have support services provided to enable them to do so for as long as possible (Barry, 2010). However, there is an evident tension between this objective and the promotion of 'ageing in place', with the consequent heavy reliance on the Nursing Home Support Scheme (NHSS) in the Irish context (Donnelly and O¿Loughlin, 2015). This study set out to explore the perspectives and experiences of social workers in Republic of Ireland working with older people to identify issues/barriers in accessing community supports and to examine older people's involvement in decision-making, including those with a cognitive impairment/dementia. Methods: A mixed methods study design was adapted and the study consisted of two phases: Phase 1 consisted of an on-line survey of social workers using Survey Monkey. Phase 2 consisted of in-depth semi-structured telephone interviews with at least two s...

'Insiders', 'Outsiders', and the Geography of Regional Life
(2019)
Buttimer, Anne
Abstract:
Two distinct connotations of term ‘region’ have generated two distinct and often separate fields of endeavour within geography. Traditional regional geography has focused on the description of areally-circumscribed territories, while regional science (in the Anglo-American world) has tended to be more analytical and more specifically concerned with nodally-organized functional regions. Two contrasting definitions of space and time are implicit here – the former derives from a Newtonian notion of space and time as containers of objects while the latter derives from a relational notion of space-time as topological surface. For a number of sociological and ideological reasons, however, both share a perspective on knowledge and experience which could be regarded as an ‘outsider’ one. The ‘insider’s’ perspective has not received much explicit attention, largely because of difficulties in generalization and a fear of ‘subjectivism’. Arguments are raised to support the view that the g...

'It Took a Leap of Faith.' Care and Connect: A Model for Practitioner Research in Ireland
(2017)
Donnelly, Sarah; Anand, Janet
Abstract:
Irish social work has been slow to develop a research culture and professional structure to support research capacity. International literature suggests that one of the major reasons for the lack of research activity amongst social work practitioners is the absence of collaborative links between university based researchers and social work practitioners in the field (March and Fisher 2005; Shaw 2003:2005; Gibbs 2001). In 2006, senior staff from Tallaght Hospital, Dublin and the School of Social Work and Social Policy, Trinity College Dublin, recognised the need for a strategic approach for the promotion of research capacity and activity amongst social work practitioners. This paper discusses an academic/hospital partnership project "Care and Connect", that sought to explore the opportunities for developing practice based research in a health care setting in Dublin.

'Je suis d'aucune Nation': the recruitment and identity of Irish women religious in the international mission field, c. 1840-1940
(2016)
Raftery, Deirdre
Abstract:
This article examines the lives of Irish-born women religious around the world in the period 1840–1940. Ireland sent thousands of nuns overseas as teachers and missionaries, to work in schools, orphanages and hospitals in Sub-Saharan Africa, South East Asia, the Americas, Australia and Europe. Looking at contemporaneous views of missionary work, recruitment to religious life and the social conditions for Irish women during and after the years of the Great Famine, the article determines some of the attractions of religious life for Irish women, and the expression of their Irish identity to be found in convents internationally. The article concludes with comments on the bifurcated identity of Irish women religious who, though first and foremost members of particular religious orders, were often identified by others as 'Irish Nuns'.

'Let's Look at it Objectively': Why Phenomenology Cannot Be Naturalized
(2013)
Moran, Dermot
Abstract:
In recent years there have been attempts to integrate first-person phenomenology into naturalistic science. Traditionally, however, Husserlian phenomenology has been resolutely anti-naturalist. Husserl identified naturalism as the dominant tendency of twentieth-century science and philosophy and he regarded it as an essentially self-refuting doctrine. Naturalism is a point of view or attitude (a reification of the natural attitude into the naturalistic attitude) that does not know that it is an attitude. For phenomenology, naturalism is objectivism. But phenomenology maintains that objectivity is constituted through the intentional activity of cooperating subjects. Understanding the role of cooperating subjects in producing the experience of the one, shared, objective world keeps phenomenology committed to a resolutely anti-naturalist (or ‘transcendental’) philosophy.

'Out of Step' Michael Kane, Modernism and Irish Art History
(2017)
Kennedy, Roisin Askale
Abstract:
As a leading member of the Independent artists and a founder of the Project Arts Centre, Michael Kane has made an immense contribution to Irish art. Along with John Kelly, James McKenna, John Behan, and Charlie Cullen, he formed Group 65 in the mid 1960s. It came to dominate the Independent artists, the exhibition society, founded in 1960, as an alternative to the RHA and the Irish Exhibition of Living Art. Declaring themselves to be ‘the nucleus of a new school of painting in Ireland’, they saw their work as representative of an important aspect of Irish art practice, one that was neither academic nor one that slavishly followed international trends.

'Outside their Comfort Zone': Diverse and Engaging Approaches for Students Learning through a Different Discipline
(2019)
Keenahan, Jennifer
Abstract:
I am an engineer and typically engineering students are assessed using calculation-based exams and written laboratory reports. However, I teach a 5-credit third year module which typically contains 60 architecture students and is compulsory. Simultaneously, these students complete a 20-credit module in studio design involving approximately 30 contact hours per week. The purpose of this module is to provide architecture students with the necessary training in engineering to fulfil requirements at both a professional and accreditation level. Whereas calculation-based exams are commonplace in the assessment of engineering students, using them to assess architecture students does not promote effective learning. It was not uncommon for architecture students to fail the engineering-style exam which suited those with a strong background in maths and physics. They seemed relatively unfamiliar with exams as a form of assessment as most of their submissions are studio portfolios. Exams te...

'Pirandello's Islands of the Mind: The Isola-ted Self'
(2019)
Fanning, Ursula
Abstract:
This paper has its roots in the title of the 2017 anniversary celebration conference of the Society for Pirandello Studies, ‘Exploring Pirandello’s Islands of the Map and of the Mind’: reflecting on this title I consider that the most island-like structure in Pirandello’s work is probably that of (certain of) his characters. There is a tendency, throughout his oeuvre, in the plays, novels and short stories, for the individual to cast himself (and I use this pronoun deliberately) adrift from others, and to connect with them only sporadically, if often intensely. Pirandello’s characters, like other islands, depend on communication, interaction and negotiation for survival (although, of course, some of them do not survive) and even where they are aware of these dependencies, they often fight against them, metaphorically cutting the moorings of the ships (the other characters) which touch on their individual promontories.

Abstract:
In the Letter to Ralegh accompanying the 1590 Books of The Faerie Queene, Edmund Spenser explains that precisely because his poem is ‘a continued allegory, or darke conceit, I haue thought good aswell for auoyding of gealous opinions and misconstructions, as also for your better light in reading thereof... to discouer vnto you the general intention and meaning, which in the whole course thereof I haue fashioned’. In using these terms, Spenser signals his understanding of allegory as a challenging, esoteric discipline, one for which his readers will need this clarification.

'Spectacularly Exposed and Vulnerable' How Irish Equality Legislation Subverted the Personal and Professional Security of Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Teachers
(2015)
Fahie, Declan
Abstract:
International studies have consistently highlighted the challenges experienced by Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual (LGB) teachers from around the world as they negotiate their personal and professional identities within the context of an often hostile work environment, In Ireland, the education system remains heavily influenced by denominational mores, particularly those of the Roman Catholic Church. Unsurprisingly, with the declaration by the Roman Catholic Church that homosexuality was 'intrinsically disordered' (Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church, 2003), LGB teachers’ professional identity is often (in)formed by fear as well as perceived, or actual, harassment, bullying and overt discrimination. This study represents the first in-depth examination of the apparent contradiction between EU law (Employment Equality Directive - 2000/78/EC) and the derogation afforded organizations with denominational ethos in Irish equality legislation which explicitly permitted discrimination...

'The Character of Editress': Marian Evans at the Westminster Review, 1851-54
(2016)
Dillane, Fionnuala
Abstract:
That Marian Evans was a professional journalist familiar with the world of publishing by the time she wrote her first fiction is acknowledged universally in critical and biographical accounts of George Eliot’s life. She was, after all, the first woman editor of a leading intellectual quarterly, the Westminster Review. However, little attention has been paid to the actual details of Evans’s editorial work, carried out a decade before the George Eliot persona was invented. This essay argues that Evans’s editorial career provides revealing evidence of an important intervention in the haphazard processes of the professionalization of Victorian women. The 'Character of Editress,' to use Evans’s own expression, signifies both the performance and the mask that were required of a woman occupying such a public, professional role at a prominent mid-century journal. This “character” emerges from the margins of publication history when the focus of attention shifts from the content of...
