Literature & context:
Who is Ireland's enemy? (1914)
by Brain O'Higgins

Slide 2 - Tekstslide

Teacher refers to Activity 1: guess who's Ireland's enemy. Students should reflect on their answers and adjust them (if necessary) now that they have additional information on Ireland's history.

Activity 2: predictions (p5)
Looking at the title, what is your prediction about this poem with reference to …:

•    Speaker’s perspective (who’s point of view is voiced)
•    Author

This is followed by a first reading of the stanza 1 & 2. Teacher reads the selected part of the poem aloud. (supporting dyslectic students & scaffolding pronounciation Irish words & names). Students can read along (scaffolding listening activity).


Lesson series structure:

  1. Introduction; history / culture Ireland
  2. First reading; predictions & reader response
  3. Second reading; reading comprehension (context, text, language)
  4. Post reading; perspective taking, writing & debate skills, exam style poster presentation (guided learning)

Slide 3 - Tekstslide

Activity 3 (p5)
3 questions = scaffolding students

Additional activity: Refer to the picture and link it to the poem. Is it reflecting the gist of the poem? In what way. 
Secondary reading & predictions:
"Who is Ireland´s enemy?...
Not Germany nor Austria,
30. Not Russia, France nor Spain
That robbed and reaved this land or ours,
And forged her heavy chains;
But England of the wily words -
A crafty, treacherous foe -
35.´Twas England scourged our Motherland
´Twas England laid her low!

Slide 14 - Tekstslide

Teacher reads the final stanza aloud. (supporting dyslectic students & scaffolding pronounciation Irish words & names). Students can read along (scaffolding listening activity).

Linguistic approach: What does ... mean?
* reaved =
* wily =
* treacherous =
* foe = enemy
* scourged =
* England laid her low =

Literary devices:
* personification of Ireland = her L9
* repetition = not, nor 2x (L2/3)
* alliteration = not, nor (L2/3); robbed, reaved (L4); wily words (L6); laid, low (L9)


Secondary reading & predictions:
Rise up, oh dead of Ireland!
And rouse her living men,
The chance will come to us at last
40. To win our own again,
To sweep the English enemy
From hill and glen and bay,
And in your name, oh Holy Dead,
Our sacred debt to pay!"

Slide 15 - Tekstslide

Teacher reads the final stanza aloud. (supporting dyslectic students & scaffolding pronounciation . Students can read along (scaffolding listening activity).

Class discussion on how to interpret this stanza. Teacher may offer some help by analysing text and giving their interpretation = making learning visible & scaffolding.

Rise up, oh dead of Ireland! = calling to rekindle spirit of the republicans who died to free Ireland from the English (Home Rule).

And rouse her living men, = wake up/bring together/enlist new men

The chance will come to us at last = we think we can finally  be succesful

To win our own again, = to become an independent nation

To sweep the English enemy =
to remove the English from this country

From hill and glen and bay,= all of the country/every location

And in your name, oh Holy Dead, = in remembrance of the saints/martyrs that tried before us.

Our sacred debt to pay!" = omdat we hen moeten gedenken en hun daden te eren en te volbrengen wat hen niet gegund was.

Structuur en tekst

De studioversie van het nummer begint met legerachtige drums en het elektrische-viooldeel. Het agressieve drumritme lijkt erg op de drums die worden gebruikt om een groep soldaten in de pas te laten lopen. Hierna valt de gitaar van The Edge in, waarna ook de tekst begint. Naarmate het nummer vordert, worden de tekst en het gitaarspel meer agressief. Het refrein, waar Bono zingt over hoop, staat in contrast met de gewelddadige aard van de coupletten. Tijdens het refrein zorgt de achtergrondzang van The Edge als een soort harmonische echo.

De band heeft verklaard dat de tekst gaat over twee Anglo-Ierse bloedbaden, in 1920 en 1972, (die bekendstaan als Bloody Sunday) en andere soortgelijke gewelddadigheden. De tekst wordt bezongen vanuit het standpunt van iemand die al het geweld in zijn omgeving veracht. Eerdere versies van Sunday Bloody Sunday begonnen met de zin “Don’t talk to me about the rights of the IRA, UDA”. Uiteindelijk is besloten dat deze, wel erg politiek geladen zin, vervangen moest worden. Het lied eindigt met de boodschap aan de Ieren dat ze moeten stoppen met het geweld.

Differentiation:

Student explains the lyrics of the song using literary terms and linking to today's lesson context.

I can't believe the news today
Oh, I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?
'Cause tonight
We can be as one
Tonight
Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead-end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Alright, let's go
And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?
'Cause tonight we can be as one, tonight
Tonight, tonight (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Tonight, tonight (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Alright, let's go
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
I'll wipe your tears away
I'll wipe your tears away (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
I'll wipe your bloodshot eyes (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
The real battle just begun (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
To claim the victory Jesus won (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
On Sunday, Bloody Sunday, yeah
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
