Caoirmhín Ó Danachair, 1913-2002
Amongst the first members of the Society for Folk Life Studies in the early 1960s, Caoimhín Ó Danachair served as a member of Council 1964–67 and again some ten years later, as Vice President 1979–80, and as President 1981–84. His contribution to the Society was enormous, principally through his regular and always lively attendance at annual conferences; he was generous with his wide knowledge, eager to debate and discuss, helpful, amusing, scorn…
Domesticating the Past
Recognition of the past as a foreign country now colours our view of antiquity from primeval times down to yesterday. We have partly domesticated that past, where they do things differently, and brought it into the present as a marketable commodity.David Lowenthal, The Past is a Foreign Country (Cambridge University Press, 1985), p. xxv.Most visitors to open-air museums understand them as places to which buildings having some particular significa…

Obituary
Emyr Estyn Evans (1905-1989)
Folk-culture studies in the British Isles lost a pioneering figure by the death of Estyn Evans on 12 August 1989. Lovingly supported by his wife Gwyneth, he had endured a protracted illness, compounded by failing sight in recent years. His liveliness of spirit, his humour, and his enquiring interest in folk culture studies remained with him to the end.Born into a Welsh Presbyterian manse in the borderland of the Severn valley, he was educated at …
The Nature of Tradition
The temporal aspect of ethnology' includes the fact that artifacts and technologies have been used over often considerable time-spans in the past, customs have been perpetuated, and linguistic patterns maintained. These continuities come together in practical patternings of the working of human minds over time, which is to say that they are cultural continuities. 'Tradition' is the word which commonsense applies to such cultural continuity, often…
Migrant Culture
Whether referred to as ‘folk-life study’ or ‘(regional) ethnology’, our subject involves some concept of culture, as a means of defining its content and to categorize processes that generate and change ways of life. It suffices to recognize that culture exists in the minds of individuals as a structuring, or set of ‘rules’, which through performance generate manifestations, some of which are also often called ‘Culture’ (with an elitist connotatio…
Rural Houses of the North of Ireland
Cultural Connections and Cheese
Movements of ideas and people throughout insular and peninsular western Europe extend from prehistoric times to the present, having given rise amongst other things to ‘connections and cultural relations’. Attempts were made in the 1970Sto chart some of these relationships between western Scotland and north-east Ireland using ethnological approaches.s concentrating on the Scots contribution to post-seventeenth-century popular culture in Ulster. Ag…

The Bonfire in North Irish Tradition
The Ballyhagan Inventories, 1716-1740
Irish genealogists have been aware for some time of the existence of the Ballyhagan series of probate inventories, but the material possessions listed in them have not so far been analysed to illuminate the pattern of domestic and rural life of mid Ulster in the first half of the eighteenth century . Were the provenance of these inventories English, they would engender only slight comment, but in the context of Ulster's, indeed Ireland's, impover…
Ethnological Mapping in Ireland with a linguistic contribution by G. B. Adams
The Scots Element in North Irish Popular Culture
Chapbook Influence on Irish Mummers' Plays
THE distribution1 and nature2 of Irish mumming has been made fairly well known in recent years, and the continuity of the custom is traceable back at least to the I780s,3 and perhaps to the late seventeenth century if the somewhat enigmatic Cork reference can be accepted.4 Both Chambers and Tiddy had very limited access to Irish examples of mummers' plays.5 The first systematic attempt to analyse the Irish plays was published only in 1946 by Gree…
The English Mummers and their Plays
A family spade-making business in county Tyrone
Spademaking in Ireland came into existence as a specialised iron-working craft during the last quarter of the eighteenth century. The technical pre-requisites had existed earlier, since there is evidence for both the vertical water wheel and the tilt hammer before 1750, the latter certainly in the seventeenth century when trade tokens from iron works in southern and northern Ireland bear representations that may be interpreted as the heads of til…

The Ulster Tradition
There have been few attempts at a broad analysis of .distributional studies in British and Irish folk life. Certainly nothing so far-reaching or stimulating to research as Sir Cyril Fox's Personality of Britain has been to archaeology, has yet appeared for the student of folk life. In part this omission is a function of the retarded state of our subject in Britain and in Ireland. Distributional studies of folk life material have mainly been conce…

The Disappearance of the Horse from the Ulster Farm
In ‘The Ulster Tradition’ an attempt was made to define areas in Northern Ireland which have been receptive to innovations and areas which have been slow to change. The argument was based on an analysis of patterns in Ulster folklife, but it was suggested in a footnote that such distributional patterns as have appeared in folk studies may be repeated in the diffusion of modern technological innovations. ‘A good example would be the study of the a…
Straw Costume in Irish Folk Customs
The existence of straw costume in mumming and in certain wedding customs in Ireland has long been recognised. In his paper on mumming in 1946 Green considered that both it and the appearance of the folk-play character Jack Straw were indicative of interplay between seventeenth-century mumming traditions imported from England and prexisting folk ceremonies. The connections with straw were but one of three criteria upon which he based his theory, a…
