On Friday's Morning focus, Alan Morrissey was joined by Dr Sarah-Anne Buckley to talk about the release of the latest Old Ireland in Colour book. The Old Ireland in Colour series of books have been a great hit with Irish people at home and abroad. The people behind the book, Sarah-Anne Buckley and John Breslin, have uncovered more fantastic photos for the latest installment in the series, Old Ireland in Colour 3.

My guest today is Mr. John Waters, a journalist and Christian convert in Ireland. He has written several books, the most recent being Give Us Back the Bad Roads, which tells the story of how Ireland changed from being the most conservative country in Europe to one of the most liberal in a period of several decades. He wrote for a major newspaper until he was removed due to his stance against homosexual marriage and abortion. We talk about Irish history, economics, government, and literature.

If you have wandered into a bookshop - perhaps to buy your copy of Henrietta Street, from Tenement to Suburbia? Or even Enda the Road, Nine Days That Toppled A Taoiseach? - you will probably have seen, or perhaps even bought, a copy of Old Ireland in Colour by John Breslin and Sarah-Anne Buckley which has been a real charttopper since its release. A similar book, The Colour of Ireland, compiled by Rob Cross - whose work you might already have seen on Twitter - is also poised to do pretty well. But they're works that spark considerable debate because not everyone is so convinced about the merits of taking older images and restoring - or perhaps reimagining - their colour. To some it has entertainment value, to others educational value, and some maintain perhaps neither. the debate is not one that began on social media, but has been on-going for decades across the world. Donal Fallon joined Gavan this morning and he's written the introduction for Rob Cross's collection, The Colour of Ireland… but it's one of two introductions. One is more positive about colourising old photos, the other… not so much.

Old Ireland in Colour celebrates the rich history of Ireland and the Irish through the colour restoration of stunning images of all walks of Irish life, and the Irish abroad, throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. From the chaos of the Civil War to the simple beauty of the islands, each image has been exquisitely transformed and every page is bursting with life. Old Ireland in Colour started in 2019 when John Breslin developed an interest in historic photo colourisation, enhancement and restoration through personal genealogical research. He began to colourise old family photos – photos of his grandparents from Fanore in Co. Clare and Glenties in Co. Donegal. The book is co-authored by Quilty-based, Dr Sarah-Anne Buckley - a lecturer in History at NUI Galway and President of the Women’s History Association of Ireland. She has published two monographs, four edited volumes and numerous articles. She is co-founder of the Irish Centre for the Histories of Labour and Class. Old Ireland in Colour has become the must have book of this gift season - outselling the Guiness Book of World Records in its first week of publication! On Tuesday's Morning Focus, Gavin Grace spoke to Dr. Sarah Anne Buckley, co-author of the book.

It's 100 years since the execution of 18 year old Irish patriot, Kevin Barry, at Mountjoy Prison. But how should these events and others of the War of Independence be appropriately commemorated. Author and historian Joe McGowan discusses

In this episode we explore gratitude through the competing philosophies of Adam Smith & Immanuel Kant. We then look at the Gaelic practice of the Meitheal or the cooperative labour system in old Ireland where neighbours helped each other in turn with farming tasks like making the hay and trashing the corn. From this, we see that gratitude was central to the success of the Meitheal and thus the social cohesion of old Ireland. In addition, our exploration of the Meitheal demonstrates that both Smith & Kant fail to fully comprehend gratitude as they tend to overlook its pragmatic nature. In the final part, Sheila tells us how she draws on gratitude to assist her clients in her role as a life and business coach.Donate: https://www.thehutnearthebog.com/donateStore: https://www.thehutnearthebog.com/storeMusic credits: Sláinte by Sláinte is licensed under a Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License.

On this week's episode of The Left Wing, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald look back on the opening weekend of the Six Nations. Ireland got the win over Scotland but there wasn't a whole lot different about the approach as Andy Farrell's men eked out a win at the Aviva Stadium. It is only one game into Farrell's tenure as head coach but already Luke is concerned that we haven't seen a departure from the style of play under Joe Schmidt in 2019. The continuing selection battle between John Cooney and Conor Murray is discussed, with Murray's form a concern ahead of the visit of Wales this weekend. France's exciting victory over England is also analysed - and why it is too soon to be reading too much into the French revival as yet. And where are England after the 24-17 defeat? Luke thinks although Eddie Jones is a great coach, that he makes a number of odd selection decisions. The Left Wing is sponsored by Land Rover.

"Languages are like ogres; they have layers". Éimear Duffy knows a thing or two about Ireland and Irish in the rare aul' times (specifically the 7th to 9th century). In this week's episode, she tells Darach and Gearóidín about widespread misconceptions of early Irish society, honour prices of different statuses of people, the random sequence of recorded events in the annals and even how to retrofit modern words into earlier forms of Irish. --- Contact the show at https://twitter.com/motherfocloir or email us at motherfocloir@headstuff.org.

Their debut CD About Time, released on the 20th March 2009 is already receiving rave reviews and their CD launch at the famous Cambridge Folk Club a fantastic night, attended and enjoyed greatly by an appreciative audience who had traveled from across the Eastern region to attend. You can find out more details about Kiss The Mistress on their website or on their Contributor Page on our website.   Beltane: Its History and Modern Celebration by Rowan Moonstone You'll find the original article for this question and answer session on Sacred Texts.   Banks of Newfoundland by Bote Bote is a group of 4, sometimes 5, musicians who are striving to bring the maritime sea shanty scene to the southern USA where it is relatively unheard of. We play anything from original numbers about the ocean, love, heartache, or just plain good times, to the traditional folk tunes of the Celtic nations that focus primarily on the salt sea. We have a set list of over 30 songs we play live and selected the best 15 songs for our first album. Whether you're a Celtic music fan or not there is still something for your ears in Work and Worry. Whether it's the funky acoustic pop "All Day Long" or the Bob Dyaln-esque "Whiskey in the Jar", to the harder rocking "Drunken Sailor" or "Star of the County Down", there is more than just irish pub music to be heard here. You can find out more about Bote on their Contributor Page.   Ivor and the White Adder by Andy Guthrie We are incredibly privileged to have Andy as a Contributor to the show. He tells stories that are alive in his family today and that have come down through the ages. He says: The old Legends are a passion and a Joy, and the writings of Fiona Macleod are inspiration, in all I do. I have been a Head gardener of 31 years for large house, and sill working, I see the years come and go from spring to winner, and love it all. I retell the old stories. You can read more about Andy on his Myspace page or on our Contributor Page.   The Celtic World Revisited by Cindy Spear This poem was inspired by the journey of the Celts. Of course, the place for me of greatest interest is Ireland where many Celts landed. I have included a photo I took in N. Ireland of a very mystical place where there were circles of stones and other interesting rock formations. Published in The New Brunswick Reader July 1, ’95. Read on CBC Radio with Iona’s "The Search" January 9, ’96. Copyright - ’95 - Cindy Spear To find out more about Cindy Spear go to her website or visit her Contributor Page.   Lovern from 'The Fox' by Arlene Radasky The Fox is a historical novel that contains adventure, ancient Celtic beliefs, sacrifice, love of family, ancient and modern culture, and divorce. Have you ever wondered who your ancestors were? How did they live? How did they die? Most of us do. Genealogy is a huge business. Curiosity about our bloodlines, our past, makes us want to go back as far as possible. But, genealogy can only go back as far as there are written records. What if you had a chance to find a connection to ancient roots? To someone who lived two thousand years ago? Proof you could touch and hold in your hand Aine Macrea has that chance. She is the archaeologist who is on the search for a vision. Jahna has come to her and lead her to discoveries. In The Fox, you will follow the lives of Jahna and Lovern, two people who lived in what is now Scotland, during the time of the invading Romans. The Romans threatened Jahna and Lovern, their clan and most importantly, the life of their child. They struggled to find a way to stop the coming invasion and in doing so, left traces of their lives. Aine is working to rebuild her career and is led by instinct, or a vision (or is it a ghost?) to a hilltop in Scotland. Follow their stories in her podcast novel The Fox, you can also buy this book at Amazon.

I have such strong feelings about the earth and our environment that I am using one thing I know to help spread the word about our need to re-balance our connection to our planet earth. My hope is that hearing this music might inspire some people to become more active in healing ourselves and our planet. Earth Changes was years in the making. I have been singing about for our Mother Earth since the mid- eighties. After a decade of touring and performing, I have spent most of my last 10 years building and helping form a nature-based landed intentional community on 620 acres in Southern Ohio called Wisteria. Here, I have connected deeper to my family and the land. In the last few years as the consciousness about global warming has risen, I felt inspired to create music again. Recently, I finished my new CD entitled Earth Changes. I mainly want this music to inspire people. I am giving away songs (free downloads) and CDs to help raise awareness. I am hoping that this music will help spread the word about the dangers of Global Warming and the need to protect our precious planet.

Drawing on the Bardic traditions his performances are both entertaining and educational, weaving a tapestry of myth, peace, and anthems that speak directly to the heart, but never without a good splash of humour. You can find Damh's music on iTunes, or from his website, Pagan Music.
