Note
‘The Irish Review’ was a monthly magazine of Irish literature, art and science, co-founded in 1911 by David Houston and Mary Colum. It was edited by Joseph Plunkett from 1913 with Thomas MacDonagh serving as assistant editor. The magazine was notable for its original contributions by most of the leading literary figures in Ireland including Ernest Boyd, Roger Casement, Daniel Corkery, Lord Dunsany, Douglas Hyde, George Moore, Pádraig Pearse, George Russell, James Stephens, William Butler Yeats and Jack B. Yeats. It represented probably the most significant anthology of the Irish literary revival.
