Download or read book Dysert Diarmada written by Irish C. C. and published by Heritage Books. This book was released on 1919 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Castledermot, properly Dysert-Diarmada, is a small town of about 700 inhabitants in County Kildare. The name by itself is worth talking about. It shows up the vicissitudes of Irish place-names; and it illustrates this, too, that much of the glory of the past, suggested by the original name, is obscured and hidden away by barbarous modern un-Irish terms." Chapters include: County Kildare: its clans, round towers, castles, monasteries and convents, and more; Dysert: what it means, the place and the word; Dyserts, What They Were: Croagh Patrick and Slieve Donard and others; The Lake Dysert; The Ocean Dysert; Faded Memories: Should Saints Be Forgotten?; The Irish Lay Brother; Towns Cradled in Hermits's Cells; A Duel Between Names: Dysert-Diarmada or Castledermot?; Dysert-Diarmada Wins as a Place Name; An Objection From Shakespeare; Irish Place-Names Disfigured: Loop Head, Mutton Island, The Ovens and others; Ireland as a National Art Gallery: battles, portraits, groups, legends, sports, historical events, penal scenes and landscapes; Dysert-Diarmada as a Painting: key to a gallery of local pictures; A Ready-Made History of Dysert-Diarmada: local writers, the Sacred Promontory, Camden's Mistake, the Gaelic League and supplementary facts. An Index of Place-Names Explained and a General Index complete this work.

Book excerpt: While place names have long been studied by a few devoted specialists, approaches to them have been traditionally empiricist and uncritical in character. This book brings together recent works that conceptualize the hegemonic and contested practices of geographical naming. The contributors guide the reader into struggles over toponymy in a multitude of national and local contexts across Europe, North America, New Zealand, Asia and Africa. In a ground-breaking and multidisciplinary fashion, this volume illuminates the key role of naming in the colonial silencing of indigenous cultures, canonization of nationalistic ideals into nomenclature of cities and topographic maps, as well as the formation of more or less fluid forms of postcolonial and urban identities.
