Download or read book Parnell and His Island written by George Moore and published by London : Swan, Sonnenschein, Lowrey. This book was released on 1887 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays, first published in 1886, represent Moore's interpretation of life in Ireland in the early 1880s. Moore, the eldest son of a Catholic landlord and Home Rule MP, spares neither landlords nor tenants, priests or nationalists in his narratives. His depictions of the Irish landscape are often lyrical and memorable and he gives a vivid impression of the atmosphere of the country in the short period between the Land War and the Plan of Campaign. -- Publisher description.

Not illustrated. 1887 edition. Excerpt: ...village shopkeepers as readily as they do the landlords--Father Tom's parents are grocers. Alarmed at the steady increase of outrages in his parish, and indignant at the opposition that was offered to the shopkeepers when they attempted to enforce their claims by law, Father Tom for some time back had been considering the Land Question from a different side. He who has not attended Mass in an Irish Chapel cannot judge of Irish life;--its three or four aspects are strangely reflected and sharply epitomised in that fugitive hour. You have the Irish landscape well in your mind's eye--the grey sky and blue mountains in a ring, the hovels, the grey stony uplands, and the miles of brown bog where the curlews are flying. Say then, if it is not parcel of this gaunt white chapel, through whose broken windows the swallows fly circling? In the middle of the earthen floor there is a rude font for holy water, and in their haste and devotion the peasants splash the water so that it seems like an dbreuvoir where cattle have been lately drinking. There are a few pews; those next to the Communion rails are reserved for the landlords. The fluff on the bended neck of the girl is gold in the beam of white light that fells across the chapel, she prays gracefully, with refinement, addressing God in sweet and conventional phrases, and the delicate odour of verveine rises out of silk and fur and evaporates; the peasant women wrapped in their long black cloaks are bent double over the pews; their thin, long, yellow hands extended beyond their faces clutch a rosary feverishly; some of the men are down 011 their hands and knees grovelling, some kneel with straight CO7 j backs, chins lifted, breasts advanced--poses that recall those of martyred saints; they groan...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parnell and His Island This is Dalkey, a suburb of Dublin. From where I stand I look down upon the sea as on a cup of blue water; it lies two hundred feet below me like a great smooth mirror; it lies beneath the blue sky as calm, as mysteriously still, as an enchanted glass in which we may read the secrets of the future. How perfectly cuplike is the bay! Blue mountains, blue embaying mountains, rise on every side, and amorously the sea rises up to the lip of the land.

Book Synopsis Parnell and his Times by : Joep Leerssen
Download or read book Parnell and his Times written by Joep Leerssen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-17 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marked by names such as W. B. Yeats, James Joyce and Patrick Pearse, the decade 1910–1920 was a period of revolutionary change in Ireland, in literature, politics and public opinion. What fed the creative and reformist urge besides the circumstances of the moment and a vision of the future? The leading experts in Irish history, literature and culture assembled in this volume argue that the shadow of the past was also a driving factor: the traumatic, undigested memory of the defeat and death of the charismatic national leader Charles Stewart Parnell (1846-1891). The authors reassess Parnell's impact on the Ireland of his time, its cultural, religious, political and intellectual life, in order to trace his posthumous influence into the early twentieth century in fields such as political activism, memory culture, history-writing, and literature.

Professor Schneller discusses Anna's journalism in Ireland, Britain and the United States and shows the development of her feminism and nationalism at the time of her brothers imprisonment in Kilmainham Prison. The wider context of her writing and the emergence of a genuine women's voice in Irish party politics is also illuminated.
