#ManuscriptMonday from a flying visit to Words on the Wave @nmireland.bsky.social 📚

An exquisite show with wonderful archaeological objects, but always a joy to see books at the heart of an exhibition.

Il s'agit de l'une des rares copies de la Proclamation of the Irish Republic. Vous voulez en savoir plus? Cliquez sur l'image!

#NationalMuseumofIreland #BookofKellsexperience #ChâteaudeDublin #Irlande
En 1916, la Proclamation of the Irish Republic est rédigée, puis signée par sept membres du gouvernement provisoire d'Irlande. Il s'agit de l'une des premières actions du soulèvement de Pâques, dont le but est de se rebeller à l'autorité britannique à laquelle les Irlandais doivent se soumettre. Étant loin de cotionner les propos de la proclamation, qui affirme que l'Irlande est un pays, les Forces britanniques condamnent à mort ses signataires, soldant d'un échec la tentative de résistance politique des Irlandais. James Connoly, l'une de ces sept personnes, a notamment été enfermé à la prison de Kilmainham avant sont exécution qui a eu lieu le 12 mai 1916. La Proclamation of the Irish Republic montre le désir d'indépendance des Irlandais, puisqu'ils veulent se séparer de l'autorité britannique. Par conséquent, ils y revendiquaient plus d'autonomie. Aussi, il s'agit d'un mouvement de résistance politique qui s'oppose à la façon dont est dirigée l'Irlande. Les mêmes concepts sont également représentés au Québec, qui cherche lui aussi à obtenir son indépendance. Bien plus tard que l'Irlande, un document similaire est publié dans la province canadienne : la Déclaration de souveraineté du Québec. Il s'agit de la première étape du plan du gouvernement provincial afin que le Québec devienne indépendant du reste du Canada. Ce document, rédigé peu avant les années 2000, a lui aussi été un échec.

2,000 year old human torso of an Irish man that was found in a bog back in June of 2003. The remains were naturally mummified and preserved so well that scientists were able to even determine his last meal after analyzing the contents of his stomach: wheat and buttermilk. For at least 4 months prior to his death, he was shown to have a meat rich diet. Based on the length of his arms, he was estimated to have been 6 ft 6 inches (1.98 m) tall which would have been extremely tall for that time period. According to Oxford University, the average male height around this time was around 165 cm (5 feet 5 inches). The man also had manicured nails which has led to speculation that he was not engaged in manual labor and was someone of high status. His body is currently on display at the National Museum of Ireland in Dublin. Source: @nationalmuseumofireland website
