ABSTRACT No sense of inter-Celtic harmony underpinned the Wales-wide campaign to set up a Welsh Methodist chapel on Talbot Street, Dublin, in 1838. Rather, it was the Welsh community’s determination to take on the Church of Rome, and to ensure that the Welsh diaspora in Dublin – many of them seamen serving on vessels making the short crossing to Holyhead – would be ministered to in their native language. Bethel chapel proved to be remarkably successful, with its use of Welsh attracting the interest of members of the Gaelic League in the early twentieth century. Bethel chapel continued to be used by its Welsh congregation until 1939. The building survives as a cyber café, used by the Chinese community, and is on Dublin City Council’s record of protected structures.

ABSTRACT Following the ideological co-option of German folk music by the Nazi regime during the Third Reich (1933–1945), the genre’s performative practice was highly marginalized. Revivalists in both German post-war states initially recast German folk music in a recourse to the soundscape and song themes of Irish vernacular music, before reconnecting with a 19th century oppositional German folk song repertoire. In the GDR, songs of the 1848 Revolution were curated as the state’s ‘democratic’ cultural heritage and could not be readily censored. This allowed artists to perform historical folk songs to metaphorically critique circumstances existing in East Germany. Drawing upon fieldwork conducted among former GDR folk musicians, this paper explores their encounters in relation to established post-war German folk music discourses on the relationship between artists and state authorities. Concrete analysis of a 19th century emigration song uncovers how folk musicians could subversively pass comment on state-imposed travel restrictions to the West.

ABSTRACT Drawing on evidence from across a range of disciplines (literature, folklore, history, sociology, etc.), this paper explores the lack of an iconic link between Ireland and food, explaining the reasons why Ireland and food are not immediately linked in the popular imagination. It argues for recognition of foodways as a significant element in Ireland’s intangible cultural heritage. It highlights and interrogates constructs, such as ‘national’ and ‘regional’ cuisines, charting the growing scholarship around Irish food history from the ground breaking work of A.T. Lucas and Louis Cullen to a recent emerging cluster of doctoral researchers. The paper identifies the potential in ideas of the Annales School for the study of Irish food history. Finally, it argues for a serious engagement with Irish language sources claiming that this Gaelic heritage can provide a competitive advantage in a new age of innovation and creativity.

Abstract Drawing on primary documents from the Tom Munnelly collection in the Irish Folk Music Section of the National Folklore Collection at University College Dublin, this article offers three brief snapshots of fieldwork encounters and their documentation. I examine issues of recording, contemporaneous recollection, and retrospective evocation, placing fieldwork at the centre of the endeavours of ethnomusicologists and folklorists, and interrogating the relationships and reflections that these field documents may evoke many decades after the initial encounter. The article is focused on Tom Munnelly’s English-language song collecting, but the issues raised – identity, language, memory, relationships and respect – could fruitfully be examined in almost any field encounter. I demonstrate that the field documents we leave behind can teach us more about ourselves (and others) as collectors, and about those from whom we collect than can, perhaps, the learned theories we develop around them.
