Ireland Tradition and Dissent

The speech, which was referred to as “Justice for Ireland” is a call for the longstanding anti-Catholic parliament to open itself to include properly elected Irish, who were predominantly Catholic. The impassioned speech may have been more well received if Mr. O’Connell had not been addressing the House of Commons with ad hominem attacks and had made use of other

In the first place, my maternal grandfather instilled a pride and understanding of my Irish roots. Specifically, he brought me over to Belfast to learn and experience the culture. At the time, the hostility between the Protestants and Catholics was evident. Additionally, I saw people living under the threats of terrorism and bombing, propaganda graffiti, and a city under a police state. Similarly, I witnessed families torn apart because a mother was one

Historical Literature has always been a way for people to connect to the past. Students rely on the educational system in order to teach about historical events and present factual data. Ronald Takaki, author of A Different Mirror, triumphs over a history textbook`s narrative by adding the perspectives and personal information from minority groups to further educate his readers. While this text is pretty extensive with detail and memoirs of historical figures, Ireland`s Hunger Museum has reinforced Takaki`s historical details through artwork. As an active member in the community, my experience of the museum has given a personal and deeper connection to the past than the text. As a student of civics, I shared my responses to the artwork using

When we study old cultures we learn how people adapt to their environment and cope with natural disasters. We learn how patterns of immigration affect languages and why civilizations thrive or die out. Studying the remints of culture, help us understand how people lived long ago, and helps us understand our own civilization. However, not all of the world heritage sites are ancient ruins; also included are Australia’s modern Sydney Opera House, the Tower of London, in England, The Statue of Liberty, in New York Harbor, and other recognizable structures. These are all impressive places of outstanding value to people around the world.

Before the famine in the mid-1800s, “many English politicians and social reformers began to think that Ireland was a nation in need of transformation, that it’s people now needed to be yanked into the modern world by tossing out the old Gaelic traditions” (The History Place-Before the Famine). The English reformers wanted to end Ireland’s “cycle” of poverty and misfortune because in the “1800s poverty was thought to be caused by bad moral character” (The History Place- Before the Famine). The English politicians and social reformers also wanted to change the laid-back lifestyle of the Irish peasants. “ They professed the virtues of hard work, thrift and self-reliance and regarded the Irish as totally lacking in these qualities, a point of view also shared by many British officials and politicians” (The History Place-Before the Famine).

The conflict in Northern Ireland has persisted because of religious affiliations, their identities and the struggle for overall power. The morals and identities of the people and organizations of Northern Ireland

The turmoil of the second decade of the twentieth century gave way to a greater sense of peace and stability in the third, with a peace treaty signed between Ireland and Britain in December of 1921 and Home Rule finally established for most of the Irish isle (Ferriter, n.d.). At the same time, this new society did not lead to instant prosperity, and indeed poverty remained a major and growing problem in Ireland during this decade (Ferriter, n.d.). Economic and social problems that persisted during this decade certainly could have been pushes to increased immigration.

Exoticism reduces heritage practice to a spectacle in which both parties know it is for the Western

“When the violence ended that day and the teargas had settled, the political landscape would never be the same. The once insignificant IRA would swell with new members drawn from residents of the Bogside. Civil protests in the form of civil rights marches would end”. (Bogside Murals video) The long term result was to include a fair and just leadership between the two different habitants the minority Catholics and the majority Protestants who became a forever unique

The relationship between fantasy and authenticity is a taboo subject in the historic preservation world, due to the social responsibility to protect the public form “false images”. The traditional definition of authenticity ignores a diverse range of subjective meanings that may be important to stakeholders. Authenticity is determined by an objective analysis of extant buildings that demands that sufficient materials must exist from a certain period of time, but authenticity has additional connotations beyond a connection to buildings and landscape. Three main forms of authenticity are presented Fabric-based Authenticity, constructed authenticity and phenomenological (experiential) authenticity.

Advocates of Bentham had influenced the political attitudes of a generation. They had a natural distrust of the idea of state aid, which they believed would create what would later be called a dependency culture, and lead to national bankruptcy. They did not feel it was right to put money into relieving the plight of the British poor, so they were even more opposed to intervening for the benefit of the Irish poor, whom most of the British felt were inferior and were rightly kept in their place by the Free trade policy. In 1801 the Irish Constitution was annulled in the Act of Union, and by the 1820’s eighty percent of Irish land was owned by British or Scottish land owners, who were often absentee landlords.

The nativist social and cultural revival preached antagonism towards the social and cultural forms of Great Britain. In this way, the Irish language and literary movement can be seen to have not only encouraged Irish nationalism and separatism, but also fed the flames of Anglophobia which can thus be interpreted as a catalyst in inspiring the imaginations for those who later led the 1916 Easter Rising. The revival of Irish language and literature had a notable effect on the course of Irish politics leading up to partition. It ultimately brought forth a keener understanding of Ireland’s culture, traditions, history and grievances, and romanticised Irish traditions separate to those of a greater Britain. Moreover, it enabled Ireland’s demand for more freedom to gain increasing empathy throughout the world. It was public opinion that converted British politicians to the view that at least some measure of independence to Ireland should be given.

Heritage is part of the past, which is selected in the present for contemporary purposes, whether they are economic or cultural (including political and social factors). – Graham, 2002

The Anglo-Norman period in Ireland from c. 1169 - c. 1350, like people from Europe are from different social ranks and origins. The evidence researched for this essay will help us understand and focus on can depictions of what the rural landscape in Munster looked like (O'Conor 2004, p. 228).
