National Library of Ireland - Alice Milligan and The Irish Cultural Revival -

" ... This essay, written by Dr Catherine Morris, accompanies the exhibition Alice Milligan and the Irish Cultural Revival, running at the National Library of Ireland from November 2010 to February 2011. ... "

" ( page 3 ) ...Alice Milligan (1866-1953) put culture and the arts at the very centre of the civic society that she wanted to create ... Milligan’s vision for a communitarian, decentred national theatre movement was critical in creating the cultural conditions that would give the beleaguered Irish language new social contexts of meaning. From 1891, Milligan mobilised visual culture to aid the national movement for the regeneration of the Irish language. A pioneer of early photography and the social value of visual culture, Milligan reclaimed public space for Irish communities: she travelled extensively to project images of Gaelic League workers and scenes from Irish life using magic lanterns and theatre shows. ... Women, the north of Ireland, national theatre, the Irish language and human rights are at the centre of everything she did, everything she wrote, all the organisations she founded and the causes she promoted. ... Milligan’s collectivist approach to the promotion of Irish culture and the arts is reflected in her impressive network of colleagues and by the vast range of archives that her life story connects. ... Her artistic practice was global as well as local, rural as well as urban. She promoted Irish culture within a context of anti-sectarian activism that was communitarian and that developed out of a feminist and modernist consciousness. In 1919 Susan Mitchell argued for the inscription of the critical part played by women in Irish history : " The story of the men who loved Ireland has often been told, and I, with other Irish women, rejoice to do them honour, but I am a little jealous that of Irishwomen the hero tale has not been told, for they too love their country and work for it, and it is time their candle was taken out of its bushel and set upon a candlestick to give light to the dwellers in this our house.” ... The extensive archival journey required to bring Milligan’s story to light is a reflection of the complexity of one of Ireland’s most intriguing and politically engaged cultural practitioners ...
