Former Fianna Fáil minister Éamon Ó Cuív remembered his grandfather on the 50th anniversary of his death.

Éamon De Valera died on August 29th, 1975. Fifty years on, the Ireland of today would hardly be recognisable to the revolutionary leader, taoiseach and president who famously extolled the simple virtues, comely maidens and frugal comforts of the traditional Ireland he wished to see. But in many ways, argues Irish Times reporter and historian Ronan McGreevy, we are still living in De Valera's Ireland. He talks to Pat Leahy about Dev's unexpected legacy in Irish politics, society, diplomacy and academia. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Here's part two of three on Éamon de Valera, released on the day of Collins 103rd anniversary. In this episode we cover Dev's part in the Civil War, the creation of Fianna Fail in the '20s, and his wild political run in the '30s.

“Wipe out that sadness and weave the dress of impossible from the tears.” These striking words come from a poem by 13-year-old Roaa Al-Masri from Gaza. Roaa's work is part of a powerful new exhibition, Moon Tell Me Truth, featuring poetry and illustrations by children in Palestine, opening at Ennis De Valera Library from Wednesday August 6th to Saturday August 16th. The exhibition has been kindly brought to Ennis by the Kinvara Palestine Solidarity Group, in partnership with UK-based charity The Hands Up Project, founded by Nick Bilbrough. For more on the project and the voices behind these poems, Derrick Lynch was joined by Nick Bilbrough, founder of The Hands Up Project.

Jerry spoke to John O’Donnell, who lives in Cloghane, shared the story of how his late father Tadhg, made the trip to Croke Park in 1940 for that year’s All-Ireland Senior Football Final.

Éamon de Valera, un personaje vital en la historia de Irlanda, pasó de ser un expresidiario a presidente del país. Su participación en el Alzamiento de Pascua de 1916 lo llevó a la prisión, pero su posterior liberación lo impulsó a la primera línea de la política irlandesa. Desempeñó un papel crucial en la Guerra de Independencia irlandesa y en las negociaciones que llevaron al Tratado Anglo-Irlandés de 1921. Fundó el partido Fianna Fáil y dominó la política irlandesa durante décadas, sirviendo como Primer ministro y más tarde como presidente de Irlanda. Un legado marcado por una lucha que llevaría a la configuración del Estado irlandés que hoy todos conocemos. Y descubre más historias curiosas en el canal National Geographic y en Disney +.

In the aftermath of the Irish War of Independence in 1921, Michael Collins is sent to London to meet Winston Churchill, David Lloyd George and other British officials to negotiate a treaty.  After weeks of travelling back and forth across the Irish Sea, Collins and his fellow Sinn Féin negotiators return with a deal. Ireland would become a Free State, but it would remain in the British Empire, and the Irish must swear an oath of allegiance to the King. Eamonn De Valera, the president of the republic, refuses to accept. De Valera and Collins, who were on the same side, are suddenly enemies. A rift tears through the republicans, splitting them into pro-Treaty and anti-Treaty forces. Families are divided, and soldiers who once fought together are on opposite sides. As the Irish tricolour replaces the Union Jack above Dublin castle, war breaks out between the two factions. Will Collins and De Valera survive their third war on home soil? Listen as William and Anita are joined once again by Diarmaid Ferriter, author of A Nation Not A Rabble, to discuss how the Anglo-Irish Treaty descended into civil war.  _____________ Empire UK Live Tour: The podcast is going on a UK tour!

Ciaran O'Neill is the Ussher Associate Professor in Nineteenth-Century History at Trinity College Dublin. His work mainly focuses on the social and cultural history of Ireland and empire, the history of education and elites, colonial legacies, modern literature, and public history. In this interview, he discusses Power and Powerlessness in Union Ireland: Life in a Palliative State (Oxford UP, 2024), a survey of the state in nineteenth-century Ireland. Life in a Palliative State is an exploratory book that challenges assumptions about who might have been powerful, or powerless, in Union Ireland. It decenters sectarian division, popular and parliamentary politics, and the tradition of physical-force nationalism and emphasizes transnational phenomena, a settler colonial diaspora, and minority groups on the island. Departing from the conventional focus on political leaders like Parnell and De Valera, the book concentrates on the everyday dynamics of power and resistance during the Union. Structured as interlocking essays spanning the long nineteenth century, the book begins by defining the power structures that governed Ireland. Subsequent chapters examine the governance of Ireland, the development of infrastructure, and the mapping of its population and territory. Drawing on feminist theories of power, the book also explores marginalized groups and their agency within Irish society, debunking the myth of Irish ‘ungovernability.' One is the Irish diaspora, positioned as both a resource and a threat within the wider context of European settler colonialism. By analyzing the diaspora's influence and the phenomenon of remittances, the book challenges prevailing notions of powerlessness. By tracing a geographical journey from East to West, the book questions traditional representations of authenticity and colonization Power and Powerlessness in Union Ireland: Life in a Palliative State is published with Oxford University Press.

In 2018, the Israeli foreign ministry summoned Ireland's ambassador in the country to their offices. Ireland was debating the Occupied Territories Bill so the ambassador was ‘reprimanded' and told the legislation was ‘hypocritical and antisemitic'. This week Israel's foreign minister Gideon Sa'ar described Simon Harris as ‘antisemitic' as Israel closed their embassy in Dublin. On Free State, Dion and Joe look at what this slur is designed to do and why it has been so effective in silencing the criticism of the genocide in Gaza. They examine how a society can become so blinded to the horrors being committed by their government. They also look at how Israel's government has used anti-Irish tropes in the past and tell the truth about De Valera, Hitler and the book of condolences.Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.For more on Free State: https://freestatepodcast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Iain Dale talks to Eamon de Valera's biographer David McCullagh about the life and times of Ireland's most long serving Taoiseach.

In this episode, Joe and Laurie discuss the Irish revolutionary, Michael Collins, and his incredible contribution to Ireland's freedom!

Iain Dale talks to Eamon de Valera's biographer David McCullagh about the life and times of Ireland's most long serving Taoiseach.

The grandson of Éamon De Valera says his legacy should be the 'great faith' the former President and Taoiseach put in ordinary people. Ennis has hosted the annual De Valera Commemoration this afternoon outside Ennis courthouse. Dev represented the old East Clare constituency in Dáil Éireann between 1917 and 1959. His grandson and current Galway West TD Éamon Ó Cúiv says his presence in politics and within the Fianna Fail party can still be seen today.

On Friday's Morning Focus, Pat Flynn spoke to Eamon O'Cuiv, TD for Galway West since 1992, grandson of Fianna Fáil founder, Taoiseach and President of Ireland, Éamon De Valera. Eamonn spoke about the annual commemoration for his grandfather, where he will be the guest of honour.

County Cork, on Ireland's southern shore, is its biggest county, bigger than all the rest, all thirty one of them.   Corkonians, as the people of Cork are known, are intensely proud of their heritage.  They often claim, in all sincerity, that Cork City, not Dublin, is the true capital of Ireland.   And they might be right.  One need only ask the British about their experiences dealing with 'the rebel county'.By the time the centerpiece of this episode, musician and singer Donie Carroll, left his native Cork for New York, he'd already experienced many twists and turns on the botharín* of life,  including a plunge with alcoholism to the depths of despair, before rising again on the crest of the freedom that sobriety has given him. But sobriety is no guarantee of a 'happy ever after', and even this year alone Donie has faced down further challenges, including the loss of his good friends John Browne, and music man Mick Moloney.  But through all the ups and downs of his life, music has been his sweetest friend.This episode will also school you in the Cork accent, which, if you're not familiar with it, is as unique in the basket of Irish accents as Corkonians are among the Irish people. *boreen in English.====================More info:Donie CarrollMick MoloneyThe DublinersMercy CentreDe Valera stands up to ChurchillIrish RepSober St Patricks' Day====================Many thanks to our centerpiece, Donie Carroll himself, for his music heard in this episode.  Here are those tracks in order, and the albums they appear on:The Cottage By The Lee ( from Down The Slippery Gap)The Night the Goat Broke Loose on Grand Parade (Down The Slippery Gap)The Army of Today's All Right (Divil of a Noise–contains De Valera speech excerpt)Beautiful Dreamer (Down The Slippery Gap)Up The Coal Quay (Down The Slippery Gap)Are Ya Right There, Michael?

New countries start with no money. The departing colonists take everything with them, including capital. Like all former colonies, the New Ireland had no money. Micheal Collins, revolutionary leader and Minister of Finance, as well as head of the army, laid out a plan. From crowd-funding the 1916-1921 revolution, to setting up a national bank and a new national insurance company, designed to stop capital flowing to London, from marketing Ireland abroad, to rejecting state socialism and focusing on investment both national and foreign, Collins' economic vision for Ireland was the direct opposite to either the conservatism of the first 1920s governments or twisted radicalism of De Valera. What might have been - had he not been assassinated at 31, 100 years ago this week. Here's his incredible story and how money & economics played a pivotal role in it.

Eamon de Valera served as Irish Taoiseach (Prime Minister) four times, and as Irish President between 1959 and 1973. The most significant figure in the independent country's century-long history, de Valera was a key figure in securing and moulding Irish independence for six decades. His long public life has led to a popular image of de Valera as austere, pious, and as representing the economic and cultural stagnation that gripped Ireland for much of the 20th century. My guest for this episode is Diarmaid Ferriter, lecturer in Irish history at University College Dublin. 

In 1939, the young Irish state stood at a crossroads in its history. Europe was descending into war, and the deeply impoverished and weakly defended nation feared its strategic location on Britain's flank could mean invasion - by either side. In this episode, Naomi and Tim describe a moment when two towering figures of 20th century history came head-to-head and shaped the fates of Ireland, Britain, and Europe. The Irish revolutionary leader Éamon de Valera and Britain's wartime prime minister Winston Churchill had profoundly different starts in life and world views - and they hated each other. Their bitter personal relations led to a Second World War standoff, and a mysterious late-night telegram from Downing Street that constitutes one of the great 'what if' questions of Irish history. This is part one of a double episode on Irish military neutrality, explaining how the flagship Irish policy came to be. In part two, we'll dig into what Irish military neutrality means in practice today, and the opportunities and challenges ahead as Europe revisits its strategic security in an era in which the United States is in retreat.

De Valera's return from the United States saw a disagreement over the conduct of the War of Independence. He believed that the ambushes and assassinations were mere “pinpricks” and that to bring the British to the negotiating table they would need large propaganda spectacles. Months of planning eventually led to the attack on the Custom House; seen by some as the blow that broke the British military and by others as a disaster which almost destroyed the IRA.

Episode 116b: Dunking on the Popes During the ReformationDescription: Last time we talked with Professor Andrew Messmer about the Protestant Reformation in Spain. That episode gave us some context and background to look at the life and works of one particular reformer, Cipriano de Valera. De Valera had some rather strong opinions about the Popes of Rome, the Papacy as an institution and the history of the Church. Look for many other great episodes from scholars right from the academy.
