As the Solicitor-General laid down a doctrine of law, O'Connell contemptuously cried out, with his mouth full of bread and milk: "That's not law!" The bench, which was appealed to by Doherty, ruled with O'Connell. Again and again the Solicitor-General was interrupted by O'Connell with a sneer at his law, and again and again the decision of the judges confirmed the point of the prisoners' advocate. The same story was told, the same testimony was produced, as on the first trial. But O'Connell was there to confuse the independent witnesses, to confound the approvers, to brow-beat the Solicitor-General. To his face O'Connell mimicked Doherty's manner. "You may go down, sir," said the Solicitor-General, waving his hand contemptuously to one of the prisoners' witnesses, and pronouncing the words in an aristocratic drawl. "Naw! daun't go daune, sir!" cried O'Connell, ludicrously burlesquing the voice and pronunciation of his adversary. Another time the Solicitor-General said: "The allegation is made upon false facts." "False facts?" cried O'Connell. "What a bull! How can facts be false?" The SolicitorGeneral retorted: "I have known false facts, and false men too." "Yes," replied O'Connell. "Your case and yourself." All through the trial a running fire of altercation was kept up between the opposing counsel, but in such a contest of colloquial sarcasm and vituperation victory was easy to O'Connell. The case for the Crown entirely collapsed. Nowlan, one of the chief approvers, trembling under the stress of O'Connell's relentless cross-examination, which made him contradict himself at every turn, broke out with the hysterical exclamation: ...

Book Daniel O Connell  The British Press and The Irish Famine

Download or read book Daniel O Connell The British Press and The Irish Famine written by Leslie A. Williams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through an investigation of the reportage in nineteenth-century English metropolitan newspapers and illustrated journals, this book begins with the question 'Did anti-O'Connell sentiment in the British press lead to "killing remarks," rhetoric that helped the press, government and public opinion distance themselves from the Irish Famine?' The book explores the reportage of events and people in Ireland, focussing first on Daniel O'Connell, and then on debates about the seriousness of the Famine. Drawing upon such journals as The Times, The Observer, the Morning Chronicle, The Scotsman, the Manchester Guardian, the Illustrated London News, and Punch, Williams suggests how this reportage may have effected Britain's response to Ireland's tragedy. Continuing her survey of the press after the death of O'Connell, Leslie Williams demonstrates how the editors, writers and cartoonists who reported and commented on the growing crisis in peripheral Ireland drew upon a metropolitan mentality. In doing so, the press engaged in what Edward Said identifies as 'exteriority,' whereby reporters, cartoonists and illustrators, basing their viewpoints on their very status as outsiders, reflected the interests of metropolitan readers. Although this was overtly excused as an effort to reduce bias, stereotyping and historic enmity - much of unconscious - were deeply embedded in the language and images of the press. Williams argues that the biases in language and the presentation of information proved dangerous. She illustrates how David Spurr's categories or tropes of invalidation, debasement and negation are frequently exhibited in the reports, editorials and cartoons. However, drawing upon the communications theories of Gregory Bateson, Williams concludes that the real 'subject' of the British Press commentary on Ireland was Britain itself. Ireland was used as a negative mirror to reinforce Britain's own commitment to capitalist, industrial values at a time of great internal stress.

Book Daniel O Connell

Download or read book Daniel O Connell written by Jody Moylan and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel O'Connell – 'The Liberator' – lived a big, great and graphic life. Born in Kerry in 1775, he witnessed some of the most pivotal events in European history: the Penal Laws, the French Revolution, the 1798 Rebellion and the Great Famine. In his struggle for Catholic emancipation, O'Connell achieved the first and most important step towards Irish freedom. He stormed into the House of Commons against the wishes of the Government and the King, smashing down the door that had denied Catholics a place in Parliament. One of the greatest legal men in Europe, he put fear into opponents, judges and the British establishment alike. He shot and killed a man in a deadly duel, fought against slavery and spent time in jail. He also struggled with his weight and his debts, and was sometimes very vain. With lively text and striking illustrations, this book brings Daniel O'Connell and his world to life.

Book Irish Nationalists and the Making of the Irish Race

Download or read book Irish Nationalists and the Making of the Irish Race written by Bruce Nelson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-13 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about Irish nationalism and how Irish nationalists developed their own conception of the Irish race. Bruce Nelson begins with an exploration of the discourse of race--from the nineteenth--century belief that "race is everything" to the more recent argument that there are no races. He focuses on how English observers constructed the "native" and Catholic Irish as uncivilized and savage, and on the racialization of the Irish in the nineteenth century, especially in Britain and the United States, where Irish immigrants were often portrayed in terms that had been applied mainly to enslaved Africans and their descendants. Most of the book focuses on how the Irish created their own identity--in the context of slavery and abolition, empire, and revolution. Since the Irish were a dispersed people, this process unfolded not only in Ireland, but in the United States, Britain, Australia, South Africa, and other countries. Many nationalists were determined to repudiate anything that could interfere with the goal of building a united movement aimed at achieving full independence for Ireland. But others, including men and women who are at the heart of this study, believed that the Irish struggle must create a more inclusive sense of Irish nationhood and stand for freedom everywhere. Nelson pays close attention to this argument within Irish nationalism, and to the ways it resonated with nationalists worldwide, from India to the Caribbean.
