Thomas Meagher was an Irish Nationalist who participated in the infamous Young Irelander Rebellion in 1848. The rebellion was a desperate attempt to gain independence from the British Crown and to set up an Irish republic. For his role in the rebellion Meagher was tried and sentenced to penal transportation to Van Diemen's Land, (Tasmania) in Australia. Though faced with an obvious set back Meagher didn't allow himself to be beaten. He managed to escape Tasmania and make his way to New York, where through sheer force of will and determination he educated himself and began a career as a lecturer and writer. But this was by no means the end of his journey. He fought for the union during the American Civil War and later became governor of the newly minted Territory of Montana. Meagher story is one of grit and perseverance. He was a man who pursued his goals even though the odds were stacked against him. Join us this week as we explore the life of Thomas Meager and take a look at grit and how our mindset can make a difference in how we achieve our goals.

The Dubliner, Thomas Moore, born in 1779 was a poet, composer, musician, and writer. He is most famous for the 10 volume work "Irish Melodies" published between 1807 and 1834 with Sir John Stevenson, which consists of 130 of his poems set to music, much of it based on old Irish airs. "The Last Rose of Summer" and "The Minstrel Boy" are two of the most well known. Many of these "Melodies" are included in this collection. He is perhaps most infamous for having burned, at the request of the Byron family, the manuscript of Byron's memoirs which Bryon had left to him for publication after his death. During his lifetime, his reputation as a poet placed him alongside Byron and Scott and Shelly. His narrative poem Lalla Rookh for example was possibly the most translated poem of the time and earned him £3000, what was till then the highest price paid by an English publisher for a poem. This collection contains a version of the poem but without the linking or "framing" prose sections. A lovely edition of the full poem can be found here https://archive.org/details/lallrookhanorien00mooruoft with illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. Moore was an Irish Nationalist and turned down the post of "Irish Poet Laureate" as he felt it would require him to tone down his outspoken Irish national politics. Despite this, he counted the Regent - later King George IV as one of his patrons. Moore died on February 25, 1852 and though much of his work is now neglected, his enduring legacy is that his "Melodies" which were translated into practically every European language popularized Irish Music throughout the world.Part IIntroduction   Irish Melodies - Part 1 Irish Melodies - Part 2 Irish Melodies - Part 3 Part IIIrish Melodies - Part 4 National Airs  Sacred Songs   Early Poems, Ballads and Songs - Part 1 Early Poems, Ballads and Songs - Part 2 Early Poems, Ballads and Songs - Part 3 Part IIIPoems Relating to America    Lalla Rookh: The Veiled Prophet of Khorassan   Lalla Rookh: Paradise and the Peri    Lalla Rookh: The Fire-Worshipers     Part IVLalla Rookh: The Light of the Harem   The Loves of the Angels Satirical And Humorous Poems - Part 1  Satirical And Humorous Poems - Part 2: The Fudge Family in Paris     Satirical And Humorous Poems - Part 3: Fables for the Holy Alliance   Satirical And Humorous Poems - Part 4  Part VSatirical And Humorous Poems - Part 5  Miscellaneous Poems   Odes of Anacreon     Epigram - Around the Tomb, O Bard Divine  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In keeping with the "recommend a movie you have not seen", the latest episode of YKY is Chris's choice. He chose Carol Reed's 1947 film Odd Man Out. A film about an Irish Nationalist attempting to evade the police after being injured in a botched robbery. If you're a fan of far superior, The 3rd Man, you will see the Reed style throughout the movie. It stars James Mason in a role that catapulted his career and look for early roles of Dan O'Herilhy (The "old man" in RoboCop) and William Hartnell the original Dr. Who.)

In "Easter 1916" Yeats commemorates the failed Irish Nationalist uprising of April 24, 1916. Its participants are All changed, changed utterly:    A terrible beauty is born.   In "Death" the poet muses on the nature of human consciousness as unique and tragic: creative, noble, brave and self-aware. In the sonnet, "Leda and the Swan," Yeats recounts Zeus's rape of Leda, mother of the Trojan war. This is one of Yeats' most celebrated poems.

It was late last Christmas Eve when the European Union and Britain finally clinched a Brexit trade deal after years of wrangling, threats and missed deadlines to seal their divorce.There was hope that now-separated Britain and the 27-nation bloc would sail their relationship toward calmer waters.With Christmas closing in again one thing is clear — it wasn't to be.Britain's Brexit minister on Tuesday accused the EU of wishing failure on its former member and of badmouthing the U.K. as a country that can't be trusted. David Frost said during a speech in Lisbon that the EU “doesn't always look like it wants us to succeed" or “get back to constructive working together.”He said a fundamental rewrite of the mutually agreed divorce deal was the only way to fix the exes' “fractious relationship.” And he warned that Britain could push an emergency override button on the deal if it didn't get its way.“We constantly face generalized accusations that we can't be trusted and that we aren't a reasonable international actor,” Frost added — a response to EU claims that the U.K. is seeking to renege on the legally binding treaty that it negotiated and signed.Post-Brexit tensions have crystalized into a worsening fight over Northern Ireland, the only part of the U.K. to share a land border with an EU country, which is Ireland. Under the most delicate and contentious part of the Brexit deal, Northern Ireland remains inside the EU's single market for trade in goods, in order to avoid a hard border with EU member Ireland.That means customs and border checks must be conducted on some goods going to Northern Ireland from the rest of the U.K., despite the fact they are part of the same country. The regulations are intended to prevent goods from Britain entering the EU's tariff-free single market while keeping an open border on the island of Ireland — a key pillar of Northern Ireland's peace process.The U.K. government soon complained the arrangements weren't working, saying the rules impose burdensome red tape on businesses. Never short of a belligerent metaphor, 2021 has already brought a “sausage war,” with Britain asking the EU to drop a ban on processed British meat products such as sausages entering Northern Ireland.Northern Ireland's British Unionist community, meanwhile, says the Brexit deal undermines the 1998 Good Friday peace accord — which sought to protect the rights of both Unionist and Irish Nationalist communities — by weakening Northern Ireland's ties with the rest of the U.K.The bloc has agreed to look at changes to the Protocol, and is due to present proposals on Wednesday. Before that move, Britain raised the stakes again, with Frost demanding sweeping changes to the way the agreement is governed.In his speech in the Portuguese capital, Frost said the Protocol “is not working.”“It has completely lost consent in one community in Northern Ireland,” he said. “It is not doing the thing it was set up to do – protect the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement. In fact it is doing the opposite. It has to change.”Most contentiously, he said the EU must also remove the European Court of Justice as the ultimate arbiter of disputes concerning trade in Northern Ireland and instead agree to international arbitration. He said the role of the EU court “means the EU can make laws which apply in Northern Ireland without any kind of democratic scrutiny or discussion.”The EU is highly unlikely to agree to the change. The bloc's highest court is seen as the pinnacle of the free trade single market, and Brussels has vowed not to undermine its own order.Ireland's Deputy Prime Minister, Leo Varadkar, said Britain's demand was “very hard to accept.”“I don't think we could ever have a situation where we had another court deciding what the rules of the single market are," he said.Some EU observers say Britain's demand to remove the court's oversight shows it isn't serious about making the Brexit deal work.Frost repeated the U.K.'s threat...

This week we're reading the first third of The Scorching Wind by Walter Macken. The Scorching Wind opens from the perspective of Dominic, who is preparing to accompany his older, more handsome brother Dualta to the train that will bring Dualta to the Western Front of World War I. The boys come from a family steeped in the politics of Irish Independence. The Irish Nationalist movement is split at the outbreak of the Great War, on the one side the Redmond volunteers agreeing to fight for the empire in exchange for Home Rule, on the other the hardcore nationalists who wish to prosecute a national independence struggle in Ireland. The family of Dominic and Dualta reflect this split, Dualta is volunteering with Redmond, their father a principled nationalist. After Dualta is sent off, the book transports us to the future, which culminates in the Easter Rebellion of 1916. The hardcore nationalists, led by the likes of Patrick Pearse and James Connoly, attempt an insurrection against the British state to establish an Irish Republic. Their efforts failed and 16 of the leaders of that rebellion are hanged by the British state. In the wake of the Easter Rebellion, Dominic's father is arrested by the British military and dies from a persistent cold exacerbated by prison conditions, Dualta returns from the Western front crippled but still impressive. Dominic remains resistant and intentionally aloof of the bubbling Irish resistance brewing around him, but is inevitably sucked into the schemes of his friends and associates. The sections leaves off with Dominic on a train, watching as the charismatic Irish section leader Lorry is arrested by the infamous Black and Tans. Dominic wonders of Lorry's fate and little does he know that Lorry was executed, with two bullets to his head and thrown in a ditch.

In our last episode, we discussed people from James Joyce’s life who influenced the creation of Leopold Bloom. However, we left one question unanswered - why were none of these men from Dublin? Didn’t Joyce know any Jewish people in Dublin? Vincent Altman O’Connor’s research into this very question and the biography of his grandfather Albert Altman may very well be the answer to this riddle.Topics discussed in this episode include Glasnevin’s many Joycean connections, the story of Albert Altman as a successful salt merchant and politician, Altman’s connection to the Invincibles, how Altman became an Irish Nationalist, the very many details from Altman family history that appear in Ulysses, a refutation of idea that Joyce didn’t know any Jewish people in Dublin, why Joyce may have had to conceal the identity of the “real” Leopold Bloom, why it is worth exploring real world parallels to the characters of Ulysses, Joyce as a political writer, the possibility that “Leopold Bloom” really did give Arthur Griffith the idea for Sinn Fein, Joycean misconceptions about Arthur Griffith, and coded psychotropographic allusions.Sweny's Patreon helps keep this marvelous Dublin landmark alive.

Cleveland supporters of Irish nationhood launched a summer picnic in 1864--a tradition that lasted for decades. The picnics featured speeches promoting the cause of Irish freedom, but also offered summer amusements at parks outside the city. Railroads offered excursion rates for days filled with swing, tugboat or dirigible rides, races, music, and sports and dancing competitions. The names of the organizations that sponsored the picnics changed over the years--from the Fenians, to the Land League, to the National League, to the Irish Nationalists. Sometimes the nationalist impulse intersected with a business networking impulse, and downtown hotels and club rooms also became the scenes of nationalist activities. But the same leaders were behind those shifting organizations for decades, only gradually giving way to a new generation of leaders. A new century was dawning, but Ireland was still not free. The pressure to support armed rebellion grew. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Title: A Dark Day in Irish History - Pro-Life Leaders Respond Hosts: Kathy Sinnott and Paul MacAree with Fr Patrick McCafferty and Bernadette Smyth Description: October 21st will go down as one of the darkest days in Irish history. The British Westminster Government, in cooperation with ‘Irish Nationalist’ political parties in Northern Ireland, imposed the most radicalised abortion regime in all of Europe - and also full ‘same sex marriage’, on N. Ireland. Paul MacAree talks to two of the most prominent pro-life leaders in “The North’; Bernadette Smyth, founder and director of Precious Life, the largest pro-life group in N. Ireland - and Fr Patrick McCafferty, PP Corpus Christi Parish West Belfast,a voice of faith on behalf of ‘the least of these’ in Ireland. Both respond to events this week and see sure signs of hope that change can come.

In this part 1 of a two part episode I will be discussing Sir Roger Casement and his work in colonial British areas, humanitarian work, his reports and his initial move to becoming an Irish Nationalist. Tune in in two weeks time for more on his trial, appeal and his infamous diaries!

It’s the birthday of poet, Irish Nationalist, and mystical enthusiast William Butler Yeats (1895), who said, “We make out of the quarrel with others, rhetoric, but of the quarrel with ourselves, poetry.”

An Irish Nationalist turned Canadian patriot turned Father of Confederation. Thomas D'Arcy McGee was all of that when he was assassinated in 1868.

The Capuchin Annual was a periodical published between 1930 and 1977 by Irish Franciscan Capuchins, a Roman Catholic order. Over 44 issues it contains various articles written by members of various Catholic orders and by authors who were not members of the Catholic Church. It is known to have held nationalist views, even at a time when the Catholic Church and the Irish state were opposed to nationalist movements. It was digitized and made available online for scholarly use in 2016. Even prior to digitization it was widely used in scholarly studies, especially its 1966 issue, but so far, no work has focused exclusively on the periodical itself and its links to nationalism. This study will use ‘history of representations’ methods, a cultural history method which analyses social representations in cultural objects and often draws on sociolinguistics. As this research draws on digitized materials, this study is also linked to digital humanities methods. As women’s participation in the revolutionary events was not always recognized, and in keeping with the conference theme, this paper will examine their representation, or lack of, in the Capuchin Annual. It will determine if their under recognition also affected their representations. Through the textual analysis of their mentions in the periodical, it will determine which criteria are used to describe nationalist women. The data will then be compared to men’s representations to see how the patterns differ. Maelle Le Roux started studying for her PhD in January 2018 at University of Limerick, in the Department of History and School of Modern Languages and Applied Linguistics. Her research focuses on the representations of Irish nationalist figures in the Capuchin Annual. She has a Research MA in History from Université Paris-Sorbonne (June 2016), for which she wrote two dissertations, the first on Masculinity in youth literature in France (1960s and 1980s), in 2015, and the second on the representations of the 1916 Easter Rising for children in Ireland (1923-2016), in 2016.
