Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Joseph Kickham (1828-82), novelist and Fenian, was born in Co. Tipperary, the son of a prosperous shopkeeper. Despite being permanently deafened and partially blinded by an accident with gunpowder at the age of thirteen, he took an active part in politics, at first as a Young Irelander and, from 1860, as a Fenian. In 1864 he formed, with John O'Leary and T.C.Luby, the three-man Executive which directed the Fenian movement. They were all arrested in 1865. Kickham was sentenced to fourteen years' penal servitude, but released after four years because of ill-health. Subsequently he published his best-known novel, Knocknagow, a series of detailed pictures of Tipperary life, in which the Land Question is a major theme. Yeats described Kickham as the 'most rambling and yet withal most vivid, humorous, and most sincere of Irish novelists', and Stephen Brown thought Knocknagow 'one of the greatest, if not the greatest, of all Irish novels.'

Book excerpt: This book examines early and silent cinema and its contexts in Ireland, 1895-1921. It explores the extent to which cinema fostered a new way of looking in and at Ireland and the extent to which the new technology inherited forms of looking from the image-producing cultural practices of the theatre, tourism, and such public events as state occasions, political protests, and sports meetings. It argues that before cinema emerged as an independent institution in the late 1910s, it was comprehensively intermedial, not only adapting to the presentational strategies of such forms as the fairground attraction, the melodrama, and the magic lantern lecture, but actually constituting these forms and altering them in the process. In locating cinema in relation to popular and elite culture during a key period of Irish history, it draws in particular on surviving films and photographs; articles and illustrations in newspapers, magazines, and trade journals; contemporary accounts; and official documents. Working against approaches that see early cinema as a precursor to the so-called 'classical' cinema of the 1920s onwards, it provide its readers with a wealth of contemporary material that allows them to see early cinema in its own terms as an evolving (audio-) visual form.

Download or read book Catholic Emancipations written by Emer Nolan and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2007-10-15 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking book explores the role 19th century Irish Catholic authors played in forging the creation of modern Irish literature. As such it offers a unique tour of Ireland’s literary landscape, from early origins during the Catholic political resurgence of the 1820s to the transformative zenith wrought by James Joyce’s Ulysses in 1922. Emer Nolan observes that contemporary Irish literature is steeped in the ambitions and internal conflicts of a previously captive Irish Catholic culture that came into its own with the narrative art form. He revisits, with keen insights, the prescient and influential songs, poems, and prose of Thomas Moore. He also points out that Moore’s wildly successful work helped create an audience for authors to come, i.e. John and Michael Banim, William Carleton and the popular novelists Gerald Griffin and Charles Kickham. An innovative aspect of this study is the author’s exploration of the relationship between James Joyce and Irish culture and his nineteenth-century Irish Catholic predecessors and their political and national passions. It is, in effect, a telling look at the future history of Irish fiction.

Download or read book Oceans of Consolation written by David Fitzpatrick and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-30 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An ocean of consolation" was what one young Irish emigrant in rural Australia called a letter from his father in County Clare in 1855. Similar strength of feeling is often found in the intriguing letters that David Fitzpatrick has unearthed for this extraordinary collection. Oceans of Consolation offers historians and family researchers novel and sophisticated ways of reading old letters. It opens to us the daily preoccupations of ordinary women and men with little education and fewer material possessions, as they try to overcome the separation from family and friends created by emigration. Fitzpatrick includes the personal correspondence of fourteen families of Irish emigrants in the Australian colonies, giving equal attention to letters to and from Australia. He reproduces in full more than one hundred letters dating from 1843 to 1906, and includes a generous selection of contemporary engravings and photographs. Fitzpatrick's detailed commentaries offer biographical narratives for all of these emigrants, tracing their Irish backgrounds and Australian careers. Parting company with editors of comparable collections, he pays special attention to the words and idiom by which letterwriters expressed their everyday concerns and sought or offered reassurance and advice. He believes that personal letters provide not only unique evidence of the hopes and fears of emigrants but also an important avenue for exploring popular Irish culture.
