Bloomsday, 16 June 1904, is the date immortalised in James Joyce's 1922 novel Ulysses and named after the book's protagonist Leopold Bloom. Each year, the President and Sabina commence their series of summer Garden Parties with a special event to celebrate the work of James Joyce. The importance of libraries and promoting reading was a key theme of this year's event, with attendees including, amongst others, library staff from across the country. There was also a South Dublin County Council mobile library in the grounds of Áras an Uachtaráin as part of the event. The event was MC'd by Seán Rocks and included addresses by President Higgins and historian and trade unionist Dr John Callow, along with a number of musical performances, including Andrew Basquille accompanied by Eugene Murphy, FARÓ, Simon Morgan accompanied by Vincent Lynch, and The Honeydews. https://president.ie/en/diary/details/president-and-sabina-host-a-bloomsday-garden-party-2024

Ireland and Spain are to grant formal recognition to a Palestine state as soon as this month. The move puts Dublin and Madrid at odds with most other EU states and with the United States. Sweden is the only other state to have recognised Palestine during its membership of the EU, and that was a decade ago. In this episode, Tony Connelly, the Europe editor for the Irish public broadcaster RTE, describes the historical and political backdrop to Ireland's decision. Reasons include pressure from the left-wing party Sinn Féin, the former political wing of the Irish Republican Army that had operational ties with the Palestine Liberation Organisation. Recognition is a way to give moral support to Palestinians particularly in Gaza where the Israeli military has killed around 35,000 people in response to the attack by Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7 that killed around 1,200. Recognition also marks a significant break with the long-established view that Palestinian statehood only should come after a two-state agreement with Israel. But who Dublin would recognise as the representatives of a Palestinian state remains an open question, and there's little expectation of any immediate impact on the Gaza conflict. The move also adds to bad blood between Dublin and Tel Aviv that's been aggravated by recent spats involving former prime minister Leo Varadkar and the Eurovision performer Bambie Thug. While a shared struggle for independence helps explain Irish readiness to lend Palestinians support, how modern Irish history maps onto Palestine is far from straightforward. During the 1920s some 700 Irish police were deployed to British-administered Mandatory Palestine to support a mostly British police force with a reputation for brutality, the Black and Tans. And in the 1940s Jewish militants fighting the British in Palestine actually identified with the IRA and its leaders like Michael Collins. An ambiguous Irish relationship with Zionism can be seen in novelist James Joyce's masterwork Ulysses. Joyce's protagonist Leopold Bloom proclaims unity among "all, jew, moslem and gentile" even as he must contend with virulent antisemitism in Dublin.

The Irish and the Jews are two of the classic outliers of modern Europe. Both struggled with their lack of formal political sovereignty in the nineteenth-century. Simultaneously European and not European, both endured a bifurcated status, perceived as racially inferior and yet also seen as a natural part of the European landscape. Both sought to deal with their subaltern status through nationalism; both had a tangled, ambiguous, and sometimes violent relationship with Britain and the British Empire; and both sought to revive ancient languages as part of their drive to create a new identity. The career of Irish politician Robert Briscoe and the travails of Leopold Bloom are just two examples of the delicate balancing of Irish and Jewish identities in the first half of the twentieth century. Irish Questions and Jewish Questions: Crossovers in Culture (Syracuse UP, 2018) explores these shared histories, covering several centuries of the Jewish experience in Ireland, as well as events in Israel-Palestine and North America. The authors examine the leading figures of both national movements to reveal how each had an active interest in the successes, and failures, of the other. Bringing together leading and emerging scholars from the fields of Irish studies and Jewish studies, this volume captures the most recent scholarship on their comparative history with nuance and remarkable insight.

Ulysses is a groundbreaking novel in which Irish author James Joyce explores realism through stream-of-consciousness technique and shifting narrative styles. It was published in serial form between 1918-1920 and first published in book form in 1922. The story follows Leopold Bloom through Dublin during the course of one day: June 16, 1904. The events and characters of Ulysses parallel those of Homer's Odyssey, with Bloom corresponding to Odysseus. Although the book was the subject of early obscenity prosecutions, was banned in several countries, and has been considered unreadable by many, it is nevertheless one of the most important English-language works of the 20th century and is undoubtedly a masterpiece of Modernist literature. To this day, the 16th of June is celebrated as Bloomsday by Joyce enthusiasts.

La censura no es algo de nuestros días, aunque lo estamos viendo últimamente cuando el Gobierno dice “monitorizar las redes” o las hordas de gente a los mandos de las ideologías que cancelan o denuncian a otros para que sean censurados. Tampoco es algo que venda de regímenes totalitarios como dictaduras de derechas o de izquierdas. La sociedad, su moralidad y sus dirigentes han ejercido presiones para que algo no se publique. Un ejemplo lo tenemos en esta obra: Ulises, de James Joyce. ¿Sabías que una de las obras maestras de la literatura universal, Ulises de James Joyce, estuvo prohibida durante años en varios países por considerarse obscena y blasfema? En este post te voy a contar la historia de la censura de Ulises, las razones que llevaron a las autoridades a vetarla y las consecuencias que tuvo para el autor y sus lectores. Ulises es una novela que narra la vida de Leopold Bloom, un judío irlandés, durante un solo día: el 16 de junio de 1904. La novela está dividida en 18 capítulos, cada uno con un estilo diferente y una correspondencia simbólica con la Odisea de Homero. La novela es famosa por su complejidad, su innovación formal y su lenguaje rico y variado, que incluye numerosos neologismos, juegos de palabras, alusiones culturales y referencias eróticas. La novela se publicó por primera vez en París en 1922, gracias al apoyo de la mecenas Sylvia Beach, propietaria de la librería Shakespeare and Company. Joyce tuvo que recurrir a esta vía porque ningún editor británico o estadounidense se atrevió a publicar su obra, temiendo las represalias legales. De hecho, la novela fue objeto de varios procesos judiciales por supuesta obscenidad y blasfemia, tanto en Estados Unidos como en Reino Unido. Uno de los primeros casos fue el de The Little Review, una revista literaria estadounidense que publicó fragmentos de Ulises entre 1918 y 1920. La revista fue denunciada por la Sociedad para la Supresión del Vicio, una organización moralista que consideraba que la novela era una ofensa al pudor y a la religión. El caso llegó a los tribunales y la revista fue declarada culpable de publicar material obsceno. La sentencia obligó a la revista a dejar de publicar Ulises y a pagar una multa. Otro caso famoso fue el de Random House, una editorial estadounidense que quiso publicar Ulises en 1933. La editorial tuvo que enfrentarse a la Oficina de Aduanas, que confiscaba los ejemplares de la novela que llegaban desde Europa. La editorial demandó a la Oficina de Aduanas y el caso llegó hasta el Tribunal Supremo. El tribunal falló a favor de Random House y declaró que Ulises no era obsceno, sino una obra de arte. Esta sentencia abrió las puertas para la publicación y distribución de Ulises en Estados Unidos. En Reino Unido, la situación fue similar. Ulises estuvo prohibido hasta 1936, cuando una editorial llamada Bodley Head consiguió los derechos para publicarla. Sin embargo, la novela tuvo que pasar por un proceso de censura previa, que eliminó o modificó algunas palabras y frases consideradas ofensivas. La versión censurada fue la única disponible en Reino Unido hasta 1960, cuando se publicó una edición íntegra basada en el texto original de Joyce. La censura de Ulises no solo afectó a los países anglosajones, sino también a otros como Irlanda, Australia o Canadá. En algunos casos, la prohibición duró hasta los años sesenta o setenta del siglo XX. La censura tuvo un impacto negativo en la reputación y las ventas de la novela, así como en la vida personal y profesional de Joyce, que sufrió depresión, problemas económicos y dificultades para escribir su siguiente obra: Finnegans Wake. Hoy en día, Ulises es considerada una obra maestra indiscutible y una de las novelas más influyentes e importantes del siglo XX. Su valor literario ha sido reconocido por numerosos escritores, críticos y premios. Su lectura sigue siendo un reto y un placer para los amantes de la literatura. Su historia es un ejemplo de cómo el arte puede triunfar sobre la censura y el prejuicio.

Tous les ans le 16 juin, le Bloomsday voit l'Irlande en général et Dublin en particulier vivre au rythme de Leopold Bloom, le héros du roman Ulysse de James Joyce.   Mention légales : Vos données de connexion, dont votre adresse IP, sont traités par Radio Classique, responsable de traitement, sur la base de son intérêt légitime, par l'intermédiaire de son sous-traitant Ausha, à des fins de réalisation de statistiques agréées et de lutte contre la fraude.

Bloomsday as we know it owes its existence to Brian O'Nolan, otherwise Myles na gCopaleen, otherwise Flann O'Brien. In 1954, he was the catalyst for gathering together a number of Dublin McDaidsian types who embarked on an epic journey of their own in honour of Leopold Bloom, Buck Mulligan and the cast of Ulysses. They didn't make it too far.

Irland ist modern, reich und voller Sehenswürdigkeiten und Naturschönheiten. Das Land hat eine wechselvolle Geschichte. Der Sage nach benutzte der Heilige Patrick das dreiblättrige Kleeblatt, um vor grauen Urzeiten den Kelten auf der grünen Insel die Dreifaltigkeit des Christentums zu erklären. Heute ist Irland modern, reich und voller Sehenswürdigkeiten und Naturschönheiten. In Dublin etwa kann man sich seinen Gedanken frei überlassen, wie einst Leopold Bloom, der Protagonist in James Joyce Weltroman "Ulysses". Oder man lässt die Gedanken schweifen beim Besuch der Guinness-Brauerei oder der Jameston Destillery, und natürlich im Johnny Fox Pub, dem höchstgelegenen in Irland. Doch Irland hat eine wechselvolle Geschichte, besonders die der Auswanderung bedingt durch etliche Kartoffel-Missernten im 19. Jahrhundert. Jene Hungersnot kostete eine Million Menschen das Leben, noch heute erinnert die Jeanie Johnston als einziges Hungerschiff im Fluss Liffey in Dublin an diese Zeit, die sich tief ins irische Bewusstsein eingegraben hat. Aber Irland ist auch das: Folksongs mit unglaublicher Lebendigkeit, die Windmill Lane Studios, die die besten weltweit sind, das Trinity College, Rock of Cashel, Ring of Kerry, St. Patrick Cathedral, .... und.... und.. Peter Kaiser war für ‚Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti‘ unterwegs.
