Paintings of the Irish Plight by Daniel MacDonald
Daniel MacDonald comes from a line of Scottish bluebloods who moved to County Cork sometime in the beginning of the 19th century. His father James was a painter, caricaturist, art critic, and musician, who was involved with the Cork Literary and Scientific Society. James had four children, including Daniel, who was born in Cork in 1820 and quickly follow in his father’s artistic footsteps. Daniel’s debut was at the age of 13 when he would contribute sketches to The Tribute (1833), a literary endeavor. By his early 20s, Daniel had become a prodigious painter in Cork and joined the managing committee of the Art Union, where he would exhibit many of his paintings. In 1945 Daniel moved to London, where he would achieve even more success, having many members of the royal family and of the aristocracy sit for him, including Prince George and Princess Mary of Cambridge, Lady Anglesea, Lord Sudeley, and Lady Douro. Queen Victoria also purchased a drawing, ‘Returning from a Funeral’, by MacDonald, which she kept in one of her prized albums, which is still in the Royal Collections.
Daniel is widely celebrated for being the only known artist to paint the “famine” while it was taking place. From The Irish Examiner:
In the first half of the 19th century, Irish artists with ambition went to London. There, artists painted for an elite market and patrons would not purchase pictures of rotting potatoes, emaciated bodies or diseased corpses to hang in their homes.
Irish artists would have considered it improper to turn the Famine into art; the few British artists that did also muted the horror. So, Daniel Macdonald’s Famine painting is remarkable. Although the 1847 British Institution, where it was shown, was excoriated for its mediocrity, the response to the only painting of the Irish Famine was predominantly silence.
The favourite painting that year was also of an Irish subject, but painted by an English artist, Frederick Goodall. British audiences found the Irishness, the sentimentality and faux normality of Goodall’s ‘Irish Courtship’ a comforting analgesic to the reality of Famine and the raw distress evident in the MacDonald painting.
It was not so much a question of how to convey contemporary horror adequately, but the unacceptability of conveying it at all. As the only contemporary painting of the Famine, its importance in Irish art and social history cannot be overstated.
Perhaps the painting was exhibited to reinforce the narrative that there was a famine taking place, rather than a deliberate act by the British to commit mass murder of the Irish people. We hear all about the potato blight, but Ireland produced lots of other food, most of which was stolen by British troops and shipped off. Even without this now well-documented knowledge, why does no one question why Ireland’s next-door neighbors in the United Kingdom never lifted a finger to help as millions starved to death?
Daniel also painted an image of Irish peasant youth from this time, which was not explicitly about the famine, instead showing the plight of the Irish people in a more palatable way. There is also a powerful painting of an Irish family getting evicted from their family home; just like in the famine painting, there are three generations shown suffering through the hardship. Another painting shows an Irish man preparing to engage in a street brawl. Daniel did not just paint the suffering of the Irish, though; he also showed them making merry, performing a wedding dance, and playing a game of Irish bowling.
Daniel died of a fever at age 33 in 1853. Although he left behind many paintings, many of them are still inaccessible to the public (i.e., internet). Ireland’s Great Hunger Museum was planning an exhibition of the work of Daniel MacDonald and asking that people around County Cork check their attics to see if they could find any of Daniel’s missing paintings.

Depicting the Great Hunger Through Art
On September 27, 2012, Catherine Marshall, senior curator and head of the collections at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, moderated the panel discussion Depicting the Great Hunger Through Art.
The panel included renowned artists, including Robert Ballagh, John Behan, Brian Maguire and Geraldine O'Reilly.
The panel discussion is part of Quinnipiac's celebration of the opening of Ireland's Great Hunger Museum, Músaem an Ghorta Mhóir, home to the world's largest collection of visual art, artifacts and printed materials relating to the starvation and forced emigration that occurred throughout Ireland from 1845-52. The museum, located at 3011 Whitney Avenue in Hamden, near Quinnipiac's Mount Carmel and York Hill campuses.
Educated at University College Dublin and Trinity College, Dublin, Marshall is co-editor of the forthcoming Vol. V, Irish Art and Architecture. She is on secondment from the Irish Museum of Modern Art, where she was the first head of collections from 1995-2006. She has lectured on the History of Art at Trinity College, Dublin, University College Dublin and the National College of Art and Design, served as a member of the executive of the Centre for Gender and Women's Studies at Trinity College Dublin and been external examiner in the History of Art in Institutes of Technology in Limerick, Sligo, Waterford, Galway and Dublin.
Ballagh, an Irish painter and designer, is a graduate of the architecture program at the Dublin Institute of Technology. He worked as an engineering draughtsman, a musician and a postman before taking up fine art painting full time at age 24. Pop art is a major influence on Ballagh's style of painting, and his artworks can be humorous as well as didactic.
Behan is an established sculptor of international stature. A founding member of the New Artists' group in 1962 and Dublin's innovative Project Art Centre in Dublin in 1967, Behan has been awarded many honors and became a member of the Royal Hibernian Academy in 1990.
A fiercely expressive painter, Maguire's principal topics have always been sexual and political alienation. He has consistently brought his mordant wit and savage indignation to bear on the indignities inflicted on the oppressed individual.
O'Reilly, a visual artist and printmaker, has had 16 solo exhibitions and shown in many selected group exhibitions throughout Ireland as well as America, Australia, France, Belgium, Sweden and England. Her one-person exhibition for the Hamilton Gallery, Sligo opened in October 2011 and ran for three weeks. She has just completed two series of photo etchings based on work done on a residency at the Heinrich Boll House, Achill Island, Co Mayo and Inishmurray Island, Sligo Bay.

DUBLINERS by James Joyce - FULL Audio Book | Greatest Audio Books
DUBLINERS by James Joyce - FULL Audio Book | Greatest Audio Books - Dubliners is a collection of 15 short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. They form a naturalistic depiction of Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. The stories were written when Irish nationalism was at its peak and a search for a national identity and purpose was raging; at a crossroads of history and culture, Ireland was jolted by various converging ideas and influences. They centre on Joyce's idea of an epiphany: a moment where a character experiences self-understanding or illumination. Many of the characters in Dubliners later appear in minor roles in Joyce's novel Ulysses. The initial stories in the collection are narrated by child protagonists, and as the stories continue, they deal with the lives and concerns of progressively older people. This is in line with Joyce's tripartite division of the collection into childhood, adolescence, and maturity. (Summary from Wikipedia)

George Bernard Shaw
George Bernard Shaw was an Irish playwright and a co-founder of the London School of Economics. Although his first profitable writing was music and literary criticism, in which capacity he wrote many highly articulate pieces of journalism, his main talent was for drama, and he wrote more than 60 plays. He was also an essayist, novelist and short story writer. Nearly all his writings address prevailing social problems, but have a vein of comedy which makes their stark themes more palatable. Issues which engaged Shaw's attention included education, marriage, religion, government, health care, and class privilege.

How To Analyze People On Sight | GreatestAudioBooks
by Elsie Lincoln Benedict & Ralph Pain Benedict - Human Analysis, Psychology, Body Language - In this popular American book from the 1920s, self-help author Elsie Lincoln Benedict makes pseudo-scientific claims of Human Analysis, proposing that all humans fit into specific five sub-types. Supposedly based on evolutionary theory, it is claimed that distinctive traits can be foretold through analysis of outward appearance. While not considered to be a serious work by the scientific community, How To Analyze People On Sight makes for an entertaining read.

Moyers & Company Show 202: Fighting for Filibuster Reform
President Obama's second inauguration will be a day of celebration, but whether or not he accomplishes his second-term goals depends on what happens the next day -- Tuesday, January 22 -- on Capitol Hill. That's when the United States Senate is supposed to decide the fate of the filibuster. Once the world's most deliberative body, the Senate has become a graveyard of democracy where, says Bill Moyers, grown men and women are zombified in a process no respectable witch doctor would emulate for fear of a malpractice suit.
The 112th Congress that just ended -- the least productive in the record books -- saw Republicans mounting or threatening to mount nearly 400 filibusters, blocking everything from equal pay for equal work and jobs bills to immigration reform and judicial appointments. As a result, there are more vacancies on the federal courts today than when President Obama first took office. With minimal effort -- and hardly a word spoken -- a minority of Senators can prevent the lawmakers from even discussing legislation by simply making phone call to the cloakroom. The filibuster is a triumph of hypocrisy, Moyers says, because the party in the majority always wants to reform it, until that same party winds up in the minority and wants to keep it.
Larry Cohen, president of the 700,000-member Communications Workers of America, joins Bill to make the case for common-sense reform that would bring the Senate back to serving democracy. Cohen is a leader of the Democracy Initiative, a coalition of nearly 50 progressive organizations campaigning hard to change the filibuster rules -- not to deny a minority the right to be heard, but to hold Senators accountable by bringing back the requirement that they show up in person and talk in plain sight, so we can know who's holding democracy hostage. But time is not on their side -- unless the Senate reforms the filibuster at the beginning of the new 113th Congress -- that's as soon as next Tuesday, January 22 -- the minority wrecking crew remains in charge for the next two years.
We think our members and working people in this country and most Americans would say it's fair: people get elected, at some point the majority should rule, Cohen tells Bill. That's the way it is in every other democracy in the world... We need to bring back the debate in the U.S. Senate.
Later in the show, the combativeness of politics gives way to the clarity of poetry, as poet Martín Espada joins Bill to examine life through verse. A one-time lawyer and advocate, Espada has published more than 15 books of poems, translations, and essays, including his latest poetry collection, The Trouble Ball.
HOW TO ANALYZE PEOPLE ON SIGHT | Audiobook with subtitles | Human Analysis, Psychology
In this popular American book from the 1920s, accomplished public speaker and self-help charlatan Elsie Lincoln Benedict outlines her pseudo-scientific system of Human Analysis. She proposes that, within the human race, five sub-types have developed through evolutionary processes, each with its own distinct character traits and corresponding outward appearance. She offers to teach the reader how to recognise these five types of people and understand their innate differences. Her ideas have never been taken seriously by the scientific community, but this book is considered a classic within its genre and remains in print today. (Summary by Carl Manchester)

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Liverpool () is a city in North West England, with an estimated population of 491,500 in 2017. Its metropolitan area is the fifth-largest in the UK, with a population of 2.24 million in 2011. The local authority is Liverpool City Council, the most populous local government district in the metropolitan county of Merseyside and the largest in the Liverpool City Region.
Liverpool is on the eastern side of the Mersey Estuary, and historically lay within the ancient hundred of West Derby in the south west of the county of Lancashire. It became a borough in 1207 and a city in 1880. In 1889, it became a county borough independent of Lancashire. Its growth as a major port was paralleled by the expansion of the city throughout the Industrial Revolution. Along with handling general cargo, freight, raw materials such as coal and cotton, the city merchants were involved in the Atlantic slave trade. In the 19th century, it was a major port of departure for Irish and English emigrants to North America. Liverpool was home to both the Cunard and White Star Line, and was the port of registry of the ocean liner RMS Titanic, the RMS Lusitania, RMS Queen Mary and RMS Olympic.
The popularity of the Beatles and other music groups from the Merseybeat era contributes to Liverpool's status as a tourist destination. Liverpool is also the home of two Premier League football clubs, Liverpool and Everton, matches between the two being known as the Merseyside derby. The Grand National horse race takes place annually at Aintree Racecourse on the outskirts of the city.
The city celebrated its 800th anniversary in 2007. In 2008, it was nominated as the annual European Capital of Culture together with Stavanger, Norway. Several areas of the city centre were granted World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in 2004. The Liverpool Maritime Mercantile City includes the Pier Head, Albert Dock, and William Brown Street. Liverpool's status as a port city has attracted a diverse population, which, historically, was drawn from a wide range of peoples, cultures, and religions, particularly from Ireland and Wales. The city is also home to the oldest Black African community in the country and the oldest Chinese community in Europe.
Natives and residents of the city of Liverpool are referred to as Liverpudlians, and colloquially as Scousers, a reference to scouse, a form of stew. The word Scouse has also become synonymous with the Liverpool accent and dialect.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Liverpool () is a city in North West England, with an estimated population of 491,500 in 2017. Its metropolitan area is the fifth-largest in the UK, with a population of 2.24 million in 2011. The local authority is Liverpool City Council, the most populous local government district in the metropolitan county of Merseyside and the largest in the Liverpool City Region.
Liverpool is on the eastern side of the Mersey Estuary, and historically lay within the ancient hundred of West Derby in the south west of the county of Lancashire. It became a borough in 1207 and a city in 1880. In 1889, it became a county borough independent of Lancashire. Its growth as a major port was paralleled by the expansion of the city throughout the Industrial Revolution. Along with handling general cargo, freight, raw materials such as coal and cotton, the city merchants were involved in the Atlantic slave trade. In the 19th century, it was a major port of departure for Irish and English emigrants to North America. Liverpool was home to both the Cunard and White Star Line, and was the port of registry of the ocean liner RMS Titanic, the RMS Lusitania, RMS Queen Mary and RMS Olympic.
The popularity of the Beatles and other music groups from the Merseybeat era contributes to Liverpool's status as a tourist destination. Liverpool is also the home of two Premier League football clubs, Liverpool and Everton, matches between the two being known as the Merseyside derby. The Grand National horse race takes place annually at Aintree Racecourse on the outskirts of the city.
The city celebrated its 800th anniversary in 2007. In 2008, it was nominated as the annual European Capital of Culture together with Stavanger, Norway. Several areas of the city centre were granted World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in 2004. The Liverpool Maritime Mercantile City includes the Pier Head, Albert Dock, and William Brown Street.
