Theatre and the Development of Spa Tourism in Eighteenth-Century Tralee
On Saturday, 6 March 1756, Shakespeare’s 1 Henry IV was staged in the Assembly Room on Castle Street in the town of Tralee in county Kerry. Far from being a one-off, this heralded the start of a season of theatrical performances by a troupe of actors who had travelled from Dublin. There were thirty nights of performances between the opening on 6 March and the final entertainment on Monday 10 May 1756. Why were Shakespeare’s and other plays being …

Technology in Irish Literature and Culture
Technology in Irish Literature and Culture shows how such significant technologies—typewriters, gramophones, print, radio, television, computers—have influenced Irish literary practices and cultural production, while also examining how technology has been embraced as a theme in Irish writing. Once a largely rural and agrarian society, contemporary Ireland has embraced the communicative, performative and consumption habits of a culture utterly rel…

The Night and Life on the Streets: Disorder in an Irish Town in the 1820s and 1830s
It is argued in this essay that the streets of Tralee in south-west Munster in the late 1820s and early 1830s were characterised by a protean, anarchic and often oppositional culture which was both diurnal and very frequently nocturnal in its context of enactment. Indeed, more often than not, darkness framed and enabled expressions of dissidence, resistance and criminality. Technology would, in due course, challenge the imperium of darkness
Collection, space and display: A case-study in the symbolic materiality of print and manuscript cultures in seventeenth-century Ireland
On the basis of a case-study centred on the experience of Sir John Perceval (d.1686) of north Cork, it is argued that books and their spatial location constituted elements within a broader decorative ensemble expressive of cultural hegemony. Moreover, Perceval’s intellectually-diverse world of print is contrasted with the marginalised and geographically-adjacent sphere of Gaelic script as embodied by the poet and scribe Eoghan Ó Caoimh (d.1726). …

Cultures in conflict in late sixteenth-century Kerry: The parallel worlds of a Tudor intellectual and Gaelic poets
Demarcated to the north by the Shannon and its estuary and to the south by the Kenmare river and the Caha mountains, the south-western territories of Kerry and Desmond provide a microcosm of the tensions and interactions characteristic of early modern Ireland. Although historically divided into roughly two corresponding halves representing the outcome of thirteenth-century Gaelic/Anglo-Norman conflict, the area approximating to the modern adminis…
The Cambridge History of Irish Literature: Volume 1
This is the first comprehensive history of Irish literature in both its major languages, Irish and English. The twenty-eight chapters in this two-volume history provide an authoritative chronological survey of the Irish literary tradition. Spanning fifteen centuries of literary achievement, the two volumes range from the earliest medieval Latin texts to the late twentieth century. The contributors, drawn from a range of Irish, British and North A…
The Origins of Sectarianism in Early Modern Ireland
Ireland is riven by sectarian hatred. This simple assumption provides a powerful explanation for the bitterness and violence which has so dominated Irish history. Most notably, the troubles in Northern Ireland have provided fertile ground for scholars from all disciplines to argue about and explore ways in which religious division fueled the descent into hostility and disorder. In much of this literature, however, sectarianism is seen as, somehow…
Aspects of sixteenth-century élite Gaelic mentalities: A case-study
La mentalité de l’élite gaélique du XVIe s : étude de cas. A partir des poèmes bardiques composés pour Philip O’Reilly, seigneur de l’Est du Bréifne à la fin du XVIe s., l’auteur examine le destin des derniers seigneurs indépendants en Bréifne, et la tradition poétique de soutien idéologique à l’élite. Breifne est un royaume menacé entre deux grandes principautés gaéliques (les O’Neills de Tyrone, les O’Donnell de Tir Conaill), et le pouvoir angl…
Providence and exile in early seventeenth-century Ireland
The depth of change which the country experienced in the reign of James I has become an axiom of early modern Irish historiography. The extension of crown government throughout the island, the flight of the northern earls, the subsequent plantation in Ulster and the putative religious reformation of the indigenous inhabitants contributed to a climate of flux and tension. The burgeoning scholarly interest in this phase of Irish history has resulte…
