The Irish Rebellion in the Age of Cable News


℘℘℘
In April 1916, the front pages of America’s newspapers were dominated by headlines about the war on Europe’s western front, where the German and French armies were battling at Verdun, and by reports of German American opposition to President Wilson’s re-election campaign. Then, on Tuesday morning, the 25th, came news of the capture of a German ship that had tried to land arms on Ireland’s west coast, and the arrest of Sir Roger Casement, a retired diplomat. “Daring Invasion of Ireland by Germans Fails,” screamed the Charlotte Observer in North Carolina. Partisan passions about World War I were running high in the United States, and pro-British papers like The New York Times were quick to circulate the “official” announcement calling Casement “mentally unbalanced,” and the Irish news nothing more than a “madcap adventure.” ....

Trinity College reckons with slavery links as Ireland confronts collusion with empire


Dubliners are learning that the front entrance to Trinity, and many other architectural landmarks, were built with money from tobacco and other slave-related revenues. There have been calls to replace a statue of John Mitchel, a nationalist hero who supported US slavery, and a plaque to Major Richard Dowling, a Galway-born officer in the Confederate army. Dublin’s Shelbourne hotel removed four statues believed to depict slaves, only to reinstate them when the figures were revealed to not be slaves.
It is all part of a wider reckoning sparked by Ireland’s increasingly diverse population, the BLM movement and new books – academic and fiction – about historical figures. ....

The Ballad of Lord Edward and Citizen Small review : Reviewed: Neil Jordan's new novel


Publisher
Lilliput Press (hardback)
Neil Jordan s depiction of the revolutionary, Lord Edward Fitzgerald and his faithful manservant, Tony Small, is an enthralling and stirring chronicle set against the backdrop of tumultuous late 18th century events, incorporating the American War of Independence and 1798 Irish Rebellion, among others.
It is an expertly spun ballad defined by themes of belonging, illusion and, fundamentally, fidelity.
So, my dear Tony, we both got it wrong. But at least we both laboured under the same illusion…The illusion of belonging. And you are still a mongrel. Like me.
The Ballad of Lord Edward and Citizen Small is a curious, albeit distinct retelling of a salient period of Irish history told through the fictional account of Tony Small, a runaway Carolina slave who had rescued Lord Edward Fitzgerald following the Battle of Eutaw Springs in 1781. ....

Neil Jordan's acclaimed new novel - read an exclusive extract


Updated / Saturday, 27 Feb 2021

We re delighted to present an extract from 
The Ballad of Lord Edward & Citizen Small, the new novel by writer and filmmaker Neil Jordan, published by The Lilliput Press.
Blending the drama of real events with Jordan s inimitable storytelling ability, this work spotlights a long-forgotten chapter in Ireland’s history. The tale is related by Lord Edward Fitzgerald’s manservant Tony Small, a runaway slave who rescued Lord Edward after the Battle of Eutaw Springs during the American War of Independence. While the details of Lord Edward’s life are well-documented, very little is known of Tony Small, who, in this gripping narrative, examines the ironies of empire, captivity and freedom. Small, who knows too well the consequences of rebellion and resistance, reflects on Lord Edward’s journey from being a loyal servant of the British Empire to becoming a 1798 rebellion leader. ....
