Roger Casement | A Man of Mystery

In the week after Roger Casement’s execution, on 3 August 1916, newsreel footage of the nationalist leader was shown in cinemas across America. At a conservative estimate, some 15 million US citizens saw the moving pictures. A century on, this fragment of film provides a fascinating insight. Casement is glimpsed at his desk writing: The daily activity he performed above any other. He used the pen…

[letters1916-1923]

❛ I hope you received petition signed by me on behalf of poor Sir Rodger. ❜

In this letter, dated 30 July 1916, James O’Shea writes to Alice Stopford Green (1847-1929) to tell her of the unanimous opposition of the Public Boards of County Kerry to the execution of Roger Casement (who was charged with treason after being arrested just before the Easter Rising and alter hanged on 3 August 1916). He writes that he has signed a petition she had sent and suggests that she meet with the king, who O’Shea is sure can be convinced that granting Casement a reprieve will help foster a better relationship between Ireland and England.

#OTD in 1914 – Irish Volunteers during the Howth Gun Running.

The plan was first conceived in April 1914, in response to the Curragh incident on 20 March. Many Irish believed that the British army could not be relied on to enforce Home Rule when it was enacted, and many Irish Volunteers also felt that availability of arms would aid recruitment. At a lunch attended by Alice Stopford Green, Sir Roger Casement, Darrell Figgis and Eoin MacNeill, it was decided…

Ireland, Germany and the Freedom of the Seas | A Possible Outcome of the War of 1914 by Roger Casement

A widely available version of Roger Casement’s political writings on Ireland as collected in 1914 in Casement’s own handwriting is a unique source in that the text constitutes what he viewed as his key writings on Ireland in the context of history, pre-First World War politics and international relations, with annotations delineating some of his later reflections and some amplification of his…
