Download or read book The National Being Some Thoughts on an Irish Polity written by George William Russell and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'National Being: Some Thoughts on an Irish Polity', George William Russell reflects on the birth of the State of Ireland in the midst of World War I and the challenges it faced. He argues that a nation's external circumstances are a measure of its inner life, and therefore, building a civilization worthy of Ireland's struggles requires a focus on both the body and soul of the national being. To do this, he believes that the quality of thought engendered in the national being must be of the highest caliber, with a focus on original principles discovered to be fundamental in Irish character. Only then can Ireland achieve true national ideals and build a civilization that is majestic and worthy of respect. Russell's reflections offer a starting point for a deeper meditation on what it means to be Irish and what kind of civilization the people of Ireland want to create.

Book My Father Left Me Ireland

Download or read book My Father Left Me Ireland written by Michael Brendan Dougherty and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perfect gift for parents this Father’s Day: a beautiful, gut-wrenching memoir of Irish identity, fatherhood, and what we owe to the past. “A heartbreaking and redemptive book, written with courage and grace.” –J.D. Vance, author of Hillbilly Elegy “…a lovely little book.” –Ross Douthat, The New York Times The child of an Irish man and an Irish-American woman who split up before he was born, Michael Brendan Dougherty grew up with an acute sense of absence. He was raised in New Jersey by his hard-working single mother, who gave him a passion for Ireland, the land of her roots and the home of Michael's father. She put him to bed using little phrases in the Irish language, sang traditional songs, and filled their home with a romantic vision of a homeland over the horizon. Every few years, his father returned from Dublin for a visit, but those encounters were never long enough. Devastated by his father's departures, Michael eventually consoled himself by believing that fatherhood was best understood as a check in the mail. Wearied by the Irish kitsch of the 1990s, he began to reject his mother's Irish nationalism as a romantic myth. Years later, when Michael found out that he would soon be a father himself, he could no longer afford to be jaded; he would need to tell his daughter who she is and where she comes from. He immediately re-immersed himself in the biographies of firebrands like Patrick Pearse and studied the Irish language. And he decided to reconnect with the man who had left him behind, and the nation just over the horizon. He began writing letters to his father about what he remembered, missed, and longed for. Those letters would become this book. Along the way, Michael realized that his longings were shared by many Americans of every ethnicity and background. So many of us these days lack a clear sense of our cultural origins or even a vocabulary for expressing this lack--so we avoid talking about our roots altogether. As a result, the traditional sense of pride has started to feel foreign and dangerous; we've become great consumers of cultural kitsch, but useless conservators of our true history. In these deeply felt and fascinating letters, Dougherty goes beyond his family's story to share a fascinating meditation on the meaning of identity in America.

Book Reflections on the Constitution  Works of Harold J  Laski

Download or read book Reflections on the Constitution Works of Harold J Laski written by Harold J. Laski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work remains of interest to anyone concerned with Britain’s political institutions and how they might be reformed. Laski was strongly in favour of utilising Britain’s capacity for decisive government to drive through great social reforms. He was still confident that there was a majority will for such change and quite unable to imagine the kind of centralisation that was later to take place in the UK. If Laski is still important it is more for his pluralist views which counsel against such developments, but these lectures are still of interest in showing how a radical reformer could accept and defend established institutions like the House of Commons.
