Love in the Lav
In the last decade or so, Ireland has emerged as one of the world’s most progressive countries when it comes to matters of sexuality and gender. It was the first to legalise equal marriage via referendum in 2015 and two years later the public elected an openly gay candidate to serve as head of government, making it only the fourth polity to achieve that milestone. Today, when places with a far longer tradition of liberal politics are rolling back…
Queering family history and the lives of Irish men before gay liberation
Historians of sexuality commonly 'read against the grain' of the criminal archive as a way to reconstruct both the pitfalls and possibilities of queer cruising cultures. One of the drawbacks of this approach is how it can limit our knowledge of queer men to the fleeting moments of pleasure that led to an arrest, thus obscuring the broader complexities of their social world. The sources that can take us beyond this limited viewpoint -such as diari…

The Mayflower and Historical Culture in Britain, 1620 – 2020
In 2020 the Anglo-American world marked the 400th anniversary of the trans-Atlantic Mayflower voyage with a programme of activities. Intensive and focused interest in the story of the Mayflower is not a new phenomenon—especially in the United States, where it is the bedrock of the nation’s ‘origin story’. But the tale of the Pilgrims has historically also captured the British imagination. This article outlines a chronology for understanding the c…
The Mayflower and ‘Mother Plymouth’
Historians are now well-attuned to the development of modern urban rituals and civic identities, and how both can depend on expressions of local and national historical character. In this article I take a different approach, by demonstrating how the idea of an Anglo-American shared past could also inflect urban culture. I use a case study of the Mayflower in Plymouth, tracing this seventeenth-century voyage’s afterlife, from its romantic and nonc…
Queer Belfast during the First World War
Queer history is still in its infancy in Ireland, with political approaches and the more recent past, and the gay rights movement particularly, providing the primary focus so far. This article takes a different approach by investigating the everyday experiences, identities and policing of men who had sex with men in the early twentieth century. Using two extraordinary case studies from Belfast during the First World War, I explore different lives…

Almost 460 pages later, with this reader convinced that his efforts were indeed ‘a labor of love’ (p. xi), Campanella walks the borough in search of the gentrifying glow of vintage tungsten lights. Testing a theory that where these Edison originals gather so too do the dreaded hipsters, he segues into a rant against the contemporary culture that ‘kills the real McCoy to venerate its taxidermal remains’ (p. 461). By beginning with his own family h…
Historical Pageants and the Medieval Past in Twentieth-Century England
This article examines the representation of the medieval past in historical pageants in twentieth-century England. Pageants were an important aspect of popular engagement with the past, and often focused heavily on the medieval period. Different episodes and characters both historical and legendary—Alfred the Great, King John and Robin Hood, for example—featured at different times and in different ways during the twentieth century. Many communiti…
And those who live, how shall I tell their fame?' Historical pageants, collective remembrance and the First World War, 1919-39
Edwardian Britain suffered from a severe bout of what contemporaries referred to as 'pageant fever'. Up and down the country, communities small and large staged theatrical re-presentations of incidents in their and the nation's past. Many historians have commented on this Edwardian enthusiasm, and specifically on the tendency to shy away from depicting more recent events in historical pageants. Fewer, however, have noted the continuing vitality o…
A nation of town criers
Historical pageantry emerged in 1905 as the brainchild of the theatrical impresario Louis Napoleon Parker. Large casts of volunteers re-enacted successive scenes of local history, as crowds of thousands watched on, in large outdoor arenas. As the press put it, Britain had caught ‘pageant fever’. Towards the end of the 1920s, there was another outburst of historical pageantry. Yet, in contrast to the Edwardian period, when pageants took place in s…
A Nation Depends on Its Children”
Calls for a renewed sense of “good citizenship” in the early twentieth century were loud and persistent. Especially important in the citizenship quest was the creation of healthy and efficient children, cured of urban maladies and loyal to a wide notion of community. Such attributes were seen as vital in an economically and militarily competitive world. Historians have already examined the sorts of political and bodily education that arose from t…
Putting the City Back into Citizenship
This article is about interwar Britain, civic education, and the theoretical and practical expression of local citizenship. Building upon recent analyses in urban history that have reassessed the perception of municipal and civic decline, I argue that historians must now also challenge the historiography that views citizenship as indivisible from national identity. It was indeed actually common for both children and adults to be taught that it wa…
