The years between 1916 and 1923 are amongst the most significant in the history of Ireland, since they ended over 750 years of British domination and saw the island emerge as a separate, if divided, nation. This calendar celebrates the centenary of the founding of the Irish Free State on 6 December 1922, and describes in words and pictures the dramatic events of the struggle for independence.

This collectors edition souvenir calendar with illustrations from various collections and archival sources helps to recreate the events and personalities which lead to Irish Independence

Size 29.7cm x 21cm (opening to 59.4cm x 21cm)

 Here Tony Curtis writes 24 poems to celebrate great women writers from now back to Sappho 2600 years ago, and Liam Blake finds places of beauty, then observes the sky and listens to weather forecasts so as to return to capture a perfect cast of light. Dr Pat Meere, co-author of Geology of Ireland: A Field Guide *, described to me these rocks at Garretstown and Garrylucas, as “gorgeous rocks and a marrying of aesthetics and geology”. Science and art can both be a fullness and an enhancement of the other and these poems and images balance within a space where knowledge is both present and optional.

The rocks which we see in this book are located on the coast 4 km to the northwest of the Old Head of Kinsale in County Cork. They started life some 330 million year ago as muds, silts and fine sands that were washed down from great mountain ranges mainly to the north into a shallow, gradually deepening, coastal sea. Within this sea we can imagine small drifting and free-swimming organisms, such as goniotites, which were shelled relatives of the present day octopus, squid and Nautilus, and whose fossilised shells can now be seen within some of these rocks. Although we age these rocks as some 330 million years old we can think of them as old as the beginning of this planet some 4.5 billion years ago since they are composed of the detritus of eroded earlier lands, which in turn were composed of even earlier lands.

Poetry Tony Curtis

The spectacular landscapes of the West Cork peninsulas with their raw and almost

skeletal qualities are very much the product of the underlying bedrock geology of the

region. This geology predominantly consists of layered sandstones, siltstones and

mudstones of Upper Devonian age that were deposited in a large sedimentary basin,

the Munster Basin, 380-360 million years ago.

“This syncline structure, while relatively small, very powerfully evokes the incredible tectonic forces that were required to produce the Variscan mountain belt of southern Ireland, a geological event that shapes our landscapes to this very day.” –Dr Pat Meere
Head of Geology at UCC Cork City and co-author of Geology of Ireland: A Field Guide.

“Those who don’t know Irish pubs, and the interesting people who frequent them, will always possess only a superficial knowledge of Irish life and culture. The Irish pub is not only an excellent guide to many attractive centres of celebration; it is also a helpful and civilised introduction to higher education in a convivial atmosphere.
