Digital Language Analysis Uncovers Truth of Irish Rebellion

Researchers from the University of Aberdeen joined forces with IBM'sLanguageWare research team over the last year to understand a key moment in history.

Using LanguageWare as a basis, the team created a set of digital language analysis tools, including one they called Wordsmith, and used them to understand the creation of propaganda in the aftermath of the 1641 Irish Rebellion.

A team including Trinity College and Cambridge, transcribed and digitized 8,000 depositions taken in 1641 of Protestant survivors of the rebellion, as well as some Catholic participants. The Aberdeen/IBM group then used the analytical tools to understand relationships between the types of language used. The results, and the full archive, are available at a dedicated website, 1641 Depositions.

The picture to emerge in the aftermath of Cromwell's destruction of the Catholic rebels was one of mass slaughter by Catholics of women and children. This project's forensic analysis showed how that picture was created.

One thing they found - and that would have taken a generation to parse by hand and eye - was the the worst atrocities were usually accompanied by language indicating the interviewee had not witnessed the occurrence him or herself. This persists throughout the depositions.

In a statement, Dr Nicci MacLeod, a forensic linguist, and one of the four research fellows on the project, said:

"The atrocious acts committed against women and children are a central image of the Rebellion as it was reported in London newspapers and other propaganda texts of the period. We wanted to be able to support our observations (that these were unsupported statements) with hard quantitative evidence and were able to do this using Wordsmith software which enables us to enter a search term such as 'wife' or 'woman' and see what contexts it occurs in, how it relates to other words and in what position, which combined together give us a particular impression of who did what to whom according to the testimony."

Have you ever wanted a do-over? Ever wished that you could just erase the day and pretend it never happened? Well, human time travel still exists only in science fiction, so you'll have to wait for theoretical physicists to figure out how to make it work--but your Windows PC can do something similar right now with System Restore.

Armies of the Irish Rebellion 1798 $13.95 A stunning exploration of a legendary moment in Irish history. In 1798 with the British Army preoccupied in fighting France in the Caribbean and Mediterranean as well as guarding Southeast England from threatened invasion, a co-ordinated uprising broke out across the water in Ireland. Uniquely this was neither a Catholic nor a Protestant rebellion, but rather a joint effort by leaders and insurgents from both sides of the community. The Irish Rebellion (1798) was directed against the corrupt government based at Dublin Castle and was inspired in part by the people's revolutions in America and France. This title illuminates the lives of the Irish peasants, armed mostly with pikes, who confronted the small number of British troops based in their country. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Young Irelander Rebellion of 1848 $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Young Irelander Rebellion was a failed Irish nationalist uprising led by the Young Ireland movement. It took place on 29 July 1848 in the village of Ballingarry, County Tipperary. After being chased by a force of Young Irelanders and their supporters, a Royal Irish Constabulary unit raided a house and took those inside as hostages. A severalhour gunfight followed, but the rebels fled after a large group of police reinforcements arrived. It is sometimes called the Famine Rebellion (since it took place during the Great Irish Famine) or the Battle of Ballingarry. 1848 was a year of revolutions throughout continental Europe. In February 1848, King LouisPhilippe of France was overthrown and the Second Republic was proclaimed in Paris. This revolution sent political shock waves across Europe, and revolutions broke out in Berlin, Vienna, Rome, Prague, and Budapest. At least temporarily, absolutist governments were replaced by liberal administrations, near universal suffrage was introduced and elections were held to constituent assemblies to draw up new national constitutions. It was sometimes described as the springtime of the people. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.
