    Study Notes

    Colscaradh - Study Notes

    • Author: Pádraig Mac Suibhne, born in 1942 in Donegal. Worked as a teacher and a writer. Attended Coláiste Phadraig (a seminary college) but left. Wrote many poetry and short story books.
    • Poem Type: A modern Irish poem, presenting a bleak view of relationship issues and the end of love. It mildly satirizes the lack of understanding within marriage.
    • Title: Colscaradh literally means separation or divorce. Indicates the end of a marriage due to differing desires and values, incompatibility between the couple.
    • Theme: The main theme is the conflict and breakdown of marriage. The couple had different expectations and desires about marriage. The man favoured a traditional marriage and the woman, a modern one.
    • Theme (continued): The poem explores the challenges and difficulties inherent in marriage. It offers a comprehensive, though negative, insight into the marriage. The couple likely had strong affection initially, but were ultimately unsuitable. The withering of their love led to realization of incompatibility.
    • Theme (continued): The poem highlights the obstacles and demands within marriage. The conflicts between the couple prevented any form of compromise that could salvage the union. Thus, they ended their marriage. The message is crucial; a foundation of harmony is essential for any relationship, which was absent in this case, creating sorrow and regret.
    • Theme (continued): Equality is another theme. The poem examines the contrasting hopes they bring to the marriage.
    • Man's Perspective (First Stanza): The poem portrays a traditional/conservative male ideal. He desires a wife who stays home (“Shantaigh sé bean i nead a chine”). Seeking comfort, love and children ("faoiseamh is gean ar leac a thine" and "aiteas is greann i dtógáil chlainne"), the man desires a traditional family life.
    • Woman's Perspective (Second Stanza): The woman, alternatively, expects a more modern partnership with balance in the relationship ("Shantaigh sí fear is leath den bhríste"). Seeking independence, money, and leisure, she prioritizes a more modern view that includes travel ("saoire thar lear") and recognition ("meas na mílte"). Children are not mentioned by her.
    • Desires of the Couple: This highlights differing values, leading to incompatibility and the eventual separation.
    • Emotions: Regret and disillusionment are the dominant emotions in the poem. This is depicted vividly throughout the poem, particularly in the final line ("Thángthas ar réiteach, scaradar"). Expressing the poet's view of the tragedy of love lost. The writer is saddened by the lack of compromise crucial for a relationship. The irony in the final line stresses the lost love.
    • Images/Portraits: Two main images are presented: one of the man, another of the woman. Their contrasting desires and outlooks form the core of the poem's conflict.
    • Man's Image/Outlook: A traditional, conservative man seeking a traditional marital life, wanting a wife staying at home, and taking care of the home and children, and seeking a traditional wife.
    • Woman's Image/Outlook: A modern woman valuing independence, financial security, and leisure experiences, and looking forward to travel ("saoire thar lear") and respect and career ("meas na mílte").
    • Incompatibility: The fundamental differences between their goals created an unbridgeable chasm between the couple, leading to their separation.
    • Structure and Atmosphere: The poem has two stanzas, one devoted to the male character, the other to the female character. A direct contrast. Short lines characterize the conversation but maintain emotionality. Few romantic terms. The poem's atmosphere is enhanced by the repeated rhythm.
    • Structure and Atmosphere (continued): The rhythm and rhyme scheme contribute to the poem's atmosphere and the negative portrayal of the relationship's inevitable end.
    • Meter/Structure: The poem uses a structured, rhythmic pattern (rosc) which adds a musical quality and a sense of emotional impact to the poem's tragic ending.

    Key Contrasts

    • Traditional vs. Modern: The poem contrasts the traditional views of the man with the more modern views of the woman regarding marriage.
    • Comfort vs Independence: The man longs for comfort and a traditional home, while the woman desires independence and financial security.
    • Materialism vs. Emotional Needs: The woman's focus on material items contrasts with the man's focus on the emotional aspects of family life.
    • Home vs. Outside World: The man identifies with the home, while the woman aspires to experience the wider world.
