▁and ▁widely ▁based ▁membership , ▁but ▁the ▁decl ine ▁in ▁Irish ▁as ▁a ▁first ▁language ▁continued . ▁ ▁Irish ▁was ▁in ▁sharp ▁decl ine ▁throughout ▁the ▁whole ▁of ▁Ireland ▁from ▁the ▁mid - 1 8 0 0 s . ▁From ▁the ▁late ▁ 1 6 0 0 s ▁and ▁early ▁ 1 7 0 0 s , ▁the ▁Church ▁of ▁Ireland ▁made ▁some ▁attempts ▁to ▁rev ive ▁the ▁decl ining ▁G ael ic ▁language . ▁The ▁church ▁printed ▁B ibles ▁and ▁P ray er ▁Books ▁in ▁G ael ic , ▁and ▁some ▁churches , ▁and ▁some ▁Protest ant ▁cl erg ymen ▁like ▁William ▁King ▁of ▁Dublin , ▁held ▁services ▁in ▁the ▁language . ▁However , ▁the ▁English ▁language ▁had ▁been ▁the ▁language ▁of ▁learning ▁and ▁the ▁Roman ▁Catholic ▁Church ▁continued ▁to ▁use ▁Latin ▁and ▁English ▁in ▁its ▁services . ▁English ▁was ▁the ▁language ▁of ▁the ▁industrial ▁east ▁of ▁the ▁island , ▁and ▁G ael ic ▁started ▁to ▁become ▁conf ined ▁to ▁the ▁more ▁rural ▁west . ▁ ▁By ▁the ▁ 1 8 6 0 s , ▁of ▁all ▁the ▁Roman ▁Catholic ▁sem in aries , ▁only ▁St ▁Jar l ath ' s ▁in ▁Tu am ▁was ▁teaching ▁in ▁Irish . ▁The ▁Roman ▁Catholic ▁Church ▁had , ▁at ▁that ▁time , ▁desired ▁to ▁" st amp ▁out ▁any ▁ling ering , ▁semi - pag an ▁rem n ants ", ▁which ▁included ▁G ael ic ▁language . ▁Sir ▁William ▁Wil de ▁in ▁ 1 8 5 2 ▁bl amed ▁the ▁Catholic ▁Church ▁for ▁the ▁quick
▁decl ine ▁and ▁was ▁" sh ock ed " ▁by ▁the ▁decl ine ▁of ▁the ▁language ▁and ▁G ael ic ▁custom s ▁since ▁the ▁Fam ine . ▁ ▁The ▁power ▁of ▁the ▁English ▁language , ▁in ▁business ▁and ▁learning ▁throughout ▁much ▁of ▁the ▁world ▁also ▁influenced ▁the ▁decl ine ▁of ▁G ael ic ▁in ▁Ireland . ▁A ▁letter ▁from ▁Dennis ▁Her ag ht y ▁of ▁Let ter ken ny ▁in ▁ 1 8 8 6 ▁to ▁the ▁Society ▁for ▁the ▁Pres ervation ▁of ▁the ▁Irish ▁Language ▁compla ined ▁that ▁the ▁parents ▁in ▁his ▁area ▁all ▁wanted ▁their ▁children ▁to ▁learn ▁English . ▁Bishop ▁Mac C orm ac ▁of ▁Ach on ry , ▁also ▁in ▁ 1 8 8 6 , ▁suggested ▁that ▁" Pe ople ▁are ▁a path etic ▁about ▁the ▁pres ervation ▁of ▁our ▁ancient ▁language " ▁and , ▁" They ▁see ▁that ▁Shakespeare ' s ▁tongue ▁is ▁the ▁one ▁in ▁use ▁in ▁America ▁and ▁the ▁Col on ies ." ▁ ▁Although ▁there ▁had ▁been ▁attempts ▁and ▁soci eties ▁formed ▁to ▁reverse ▁the ▁decl ining ▁tr end ▁for ▁the ▁language , ▁it ▁was ▁not ▁until ▁the ▁rise ▁of ▁the ▁G ael ic ▁League , ▁founded ▁in ▁ 1 8 9 3 , ▁that ▁any ▁measure ▁of ▁success ▁was ▁achieved . ▁By ▁the ▁ 1 8 5 1 ▁census , ▁only ▁ 2 3 % ▁of ▁the ▁population ▁of ▁Ireland ▁still ▁spoke ▁G ael ic ▁as ▁a ▁first ▁language . ▁ ▁Douglas ▁Hy de , ▁in ▁New ▁York ▁in ▁ 1 9 0
5 , ▁said , ▁" The ▁Irish ▁language , ▁thank ▁God , ▁is ▁neither ▁Protest ant ▁nor ▁Catholic , ▁it ▁is ▁neither ▁a ▁Union ist ▁nor ▁a ▁Se par at ist ." ▁By ▁then , ▁however , ▁the ▁language ▁had ▁begun ▁to ▁be ▁polit ic ised . ▁The ▁Roman ▁Catholic ▁Church ▁in ▁Ireland ▁began ▁to ▁believe ▁in ▁the ▁worth ▁of ▁the ▁language ▁and ▁had ▁begun ▁to ▁take ▁steps ▁to ▁ensure ▁its ▁surv ival . ▁Iron ically , ▁however , ▁both ▁the ▁state ▁and ▁Church ▁inter ference ▁became ▁something ▁that ▁Irish ▁people ▁began ▁to ▁res ent . ▁Protest ants ▁and ▁Union ists ▁al ike ▁began ▁to ▁back ▁away ▁from ▁a ▁G ael ic ▁rev ival ▁as , ▁besides ▁the ▁dominant ▁role ▁of ▁the ▁Roman ▁Catholic ▁Church ▁by ▁then , ▁G ael ic ▁was ▁starting ▁to ▁be ▁described ▁as ▁a ▁" race " ▁and ▁as ▁a ▁divis ive ▁element ▁polit ically ▁and ▁cult ur ally . ▁James ▁Alexander ▁R ent oul , ▁MP ▁for ▁Down ▁East , ▁stated ▁at ▁West min ster ▁in ▁July ▁ 1 9 0 0 ▁that ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁had ▁no ▁value ▁and ▁should ▁not ▁receive ▁any ▁support ▁by ▁the ▁public ▁education ▁system , ▁he ▁stated ▁that ▁Irish - spe aking ▁children ▁should ▁be ▁taught ▁exclus ively ▁through ▁English ▁and ▁expressed ▁a ▁desire ▁for ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁to ▁become ▁ext inct . ▁Even ▁so , ▁in ▁ 1 9 0 5 ▁the ▁Irish ▁Union ist ▁Party ▁had ▁a ▁G ael ic ▁s log an , ▁which ▁it ▁proud ly ▁displayed ▁at
▁a ▁convention . ▁ ▁The ▁controllers ▁of ▁the ▁Inter mediate ▁Board , ▁the ▁organisation ▁through ▁which ▁public ▁education ▁policy ▁was ▁im ple men ed , ▁attempted ▁to ▁fr ustr ate ▁the ▁improvement ▁of ▁Irish ▁language ▁education ▁provision ▁so ▁sever ely ▁that ▁the ▁sitting ▁Lord ▁Lieutenant ▁of ▁Ireland , ▁John ▁Hamilton - G ordon , ▁had ▁to ▁write ▁to ▁the ▁Board ▁on ▁ 2 5 ▁July ▁ 1 9 0 6 ▁to ▁see ▁that ▁progress ▁was ▁implemented . ▁In ▁response , ▁John ▁L ons dale , ▁MP ▁for ▁Mid ▁Arm agh ▁and ▁member ▁of ▁the ▁Ul ster ▁Union ist ▁Council , ▁claimed ▁that ▁the ▁G ael ic ▁movement ▁which ▁supported ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁was ▁simply ▁inspired ▁by ▁hat red ▁of ▁England ▁and ▁all ▁things ▁English . ▁He ▁opposed ▁any ▁teaching ▁of ▁Irish ▁in ▁primary ▁schools ▁as ▁" m oney ▁was ted " ▁and ▁" us eless " ▁as ▁well ▁as ▁claim ing ▁that ▁Irish ▁was ▁a ▁vehicle ▁for ▁the ▁dis sem ination ▁of ▁" s edit ious ▁views ." ▁ ▁Since ▁the ▁partition ▁of ▁Ireland ▁Following ▁the ▁partition ▁of ▁Ireland ▁into ▁the ▁Irish ▁Free ▁State ▁and ▁Northern ▁Ireland ▁( which ▁remained ▁part ▁of ▁the ▁United ▁Kingdom ), ▁the ▁largest ▁Irish - spe aking ▁area ▁in ▁the ▁former ▁Province ▁of ▁Ul ster ; ▁County ▁Don eg al ; ▁had ▁gone ▁into ▁the ▁Irish ▁Free ▁State . ▁However , ▁there ▁were ▁Ga elt acht ▁areas ▁( comm un ities ▁who ▁continued ▁to ▁speak ▁Irish ▁as ▁their ▁first ▁language ) ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland ▁at ▁the ▁time ;
▁the ▁most ▁prominent ▁of ▁these ▁were ▁the ▁S per rin ▁Mountains ▁in ▁County ▁T yr one ▁and ▁R ath lin ▁Island ▁in ▁County ▁An trim . ▁Since ▁ 1 9 2 1 , ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁has ▁been ▁regarded ▁with ▁susp icion ▁by ▁many ▁union ists ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland , ▁who ▁have ▁associated ▁it ▁with ▁the ▁Republic ▁of ▁Ireland ▁and ▁with ▁Irish ▁republic an ism . ▁ ▁The ▁Irish - language ▁movement ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland ▁after ▁ 1 9 2 1 ▁respond ed ▁to ▁a ▁lack ▁of ▁establishment ▁support ▁by ▁purs uing ▁a ▁self - help ▁social ▁and ▁recre ational ▁movement ▁aim ed ▁at ▁pres erving ▁Ul ster ▁Irish ▁( an ▁issue ▁which ▁had ▁split ▁the ▁B elf ast ▁G ael ic ▁League ▁in ▁ 1 9 1 1 ). ▁By ▁ 1 9 2 3 , ▁only ▁one ▁branch ▁of ▁the ▁G ael ic ▁League ▁was ▁left ▁in ▁operation ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland , ▁but ▁from ▁a ▁hand ful ▁of ▁branches ▁in ▁ 1 9 2 6 ▁the ▁number ▁of ▁branches ▁pe aked ▁at ▁ 1 8 2 ▁in ▁ 1 9 4 6 . ▁In ▁contrast ▁to ▁the ▁per ception ▁of ▁the ▁Irish ▁Free ▁State ' s ▁policy ▁of ▁pres erving ▁areas ▁of ▁Irish - spe aking ▁coun tr ys ide , ▁activ ists ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland ▁concentr ated ▁on ▁ens uring ▁Irish ▁could ▁surv ive ▁in ▁urban ▁context s , ▁organ ising ▁tri ps ▁to ▁Irish - spe aking ▁areas ▁to ▁bol ster ▁urban ▁enthus ias m . ▁A ▁co -

▁Ireland ▁in ▁ 1 9 2 1 ▁was ▁a ▁turning ▁point ▁to ▁att itudes ▁towards ▁the ▁language . ▁National ists ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland ▁who ▁had ▁been ▁abandoned ▁by ▁their ▁southern ▁counter parts ▁felt ▁that ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁was ▁a ▁significant ▁marker ▁of ▁identity ▁they ▁now ▁needed ▁as ▁a ▁minor ity ▁group . ▁ ▁During ▁The ▁Tr ou bles ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁became ▁increasing ly ▁polit ic ised . ▁Its ▁surv ival ▁is ▁largely ▁due ▁to ▁families ▁in ▁the ▁national ist ▁Shaw ' s ▁Road ▁area ▁of ▁west ▁B elf ast ▁during ▁the ▁ 1 9 6 0 s ▁who ▁tried ▁to ▁make ▁the ▁area ▁Ga elt acht ▁( an ▁Irish ▁speaking ▁area ). ▁A ▁second ▁wave ▁of ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁rev ival ▁movement ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland ▁during ▁the ▁ 1 9 7 0 s ▁occurred ▁on ▁another ▁site ▁– ▁the ▁Maz e ▁Pr ison . ▁For ▁republic an ▁prisoners , ▁learning ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁in ▁prison ▁( aka ▁' J ail t acht ') ▁became ▁the ▁way ▁in ▁which ▁to ▁set ▁themselves ▁apart ▁from ▁the ▁British ▁authorities . ▁ ▁More ▁widely , ▁this ▁use ▁of ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁inspired ▁many ▁national ists ▁in ▁Northern ▁Ireland ▁to ▁use ▁the ▁language ▁as ▁a ▁form ▁of ▁cultural ▁expression ▁and ▁resistance ▁from ▁the ▁British ▁occupation . ▁In ▁particular , ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁has ▁been ▁used ▁extens ively ▁by ▁the ▁republic an ▁party ▁S inn ▁F é in ▁who ▁have ▁been ▁critic ised ▁by ▁union ists ▁for ▁hij ack ing ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁for ▁political ▁gain . ▁
▁The ▁use ▁of ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁by ▁republic ans ▁has ▁therefore ▁led ▁to ▁it ▁receiving ▁mixed ▁responses ▁from ▁union ist ▁communities ▁and ▁polit icians . ▁In ▁many ▁union ist ▁communities ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁is ▁regarded ▁as ▁a ▁foreign ▁language ▁or ▁the ▁language ▁of ▁terror ists ▁and ▁therefore ▁– ▁unlike ▁Catholic ▁communities ▁– ▁in ▁Protest ant ▁communities ▁its ▁inclusion ▁in ▁school ▁curr icul um ▁and ▁public ▁not ices ▁continues ▁to ▁be ▁strongly ▁opposed . ▁On ▁the ▁other ▁hand , ▁some ▁moder ate ▁national ists ▁have ▁been ▁rel uct ant ▁to ▁use ▁Irish ▁too ▁due ▁to ▁the ▁negative ▁con not ations ▁associated ▁with ▁the ▁language ' s ▁use . ▁ ▁The ▁issue ▁around ▁the ▁use ▁of ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁was ▁once ▁again ▁intens ified ▁when ▁a ▁union ist ▁M LA ▁was ▁accused ▁of ▁mock ing ▁Irish ▁in ▁the ▁Northern ▁Irish ▁Assembly . ▁In ▁November ▁ 2 0 1 4 , ▁in ▁response ▁to ▁a ▁question ▁about ▁minor ity ▁language ▁policy ▁the ▁D UP ' s ▁Gregory ▁Campbell ▁said ▁" Cur ry ▁my ▁y og h urt ▁can ▁c oca ▁coal yer " ▁in ▁what ▁was ▁meant ▁to ▁sound ▁like ▁" Thank ▁you , ▁speaker " ▁in ▁Irish ▁which ▁he ▁later ▁claimed ▁was ▁in ▁an ▁attempt ▁to ▁make ▁a ▁point ▁about ▁the ▁continued ▁political ▁use ▁of ▁the ▁language ▁by ▁some ▁S inn ▁F é in ▁ML As ▁in ▁post ▁ 1 9 9 8 ▁Good ▁Friday ▁Ag re ement . ▁ ▁In ▁recent ▁years ▁cross - community ▁efforts ▁have ▁been ▁made ▁to ▁make ▁the ▁Irish ▁language
▁more ▁appe aling ▁to ▁both ▁sides ▁of ▁the ▁community . ▁Many ▁local ▁coun c ils ▁now ▁use ▁Irish ▁b iling ually ▁with ▁English ▁( s ometimes ▁with ▁Ul ster ▁Sc ots ▁too ) ▁on ▁many ▁of ▁its ▁services ▁in ▁an ▁attempt ▁to ▁neutral ise ▁the ▁language . ▁Some ▁former ▁loyal ist ▁prisoners ▁such ▁as ▁Robin ▁Stewart ▁have ▁even ▁taken ▁up ▁learning ▁the ▁Irish ▁language ▁in ▁east ▁B elf ast ▁in ▁an ▁attempt ▁to ▁rec laim ▁Irish ▁identity ▁and ▁challenge ▁Republic ans ▁about ▁their ▁version ▁of ▁Irish ▁history ▁and ▁what ▁it ▁means ▁to ▁be ▁Irish . ▁The ▁former ▁Red ▁Hand ▁Comm ando ▁prisoner ▁William ▁Smith ▁lear nt ▁the ▁language ▁whilst ▁in ▁j ail . ▁The ▁mot to ▁of ▁the ▁Red ▁Hand ▁Comm ando ▁was ▁the ▁Irish ▁phrase ▁Lam h ▁D he arg ▁Ab u ▁which ▁translated ▁means ▁' Red ▁Hand ▁to ▁Vict ory '. ▁L inda ▁Er v ine , ▁the ▁sister - in - law ▁of ▁former ▁Ul ster ▁Vol unte er ▁Force ▁member ▁and ▁politician ▁David ▁Er v ine , ▁began ▁learning ▁the ▁language ▁and ▁set ▁up ▁the ▁Tur as ▁Irish - Language ▁Project ▁in ▁the ▁pre domin ately ▁Union ist ▁East ▁B elf ast ▁area ▁for ▁others ▁to ▁learn ▁the ▁language ▁in ▁ 2 0 1 1 . ▁ ▁See ▁also ▁ ▁Com h air le ▁na ▁Ga els cola í och ta ▁ ▁An ▁C umann ▁G ael ach , ▁Q UB ▁ ▁For b air t ▁Fe irst e ▁ ▁L í on ra í ▁G ae il ge
