Roger Casement in the Belgian Congo: Translation, Travel Writing and Fiction

The extraordinary and at the same time controversial life of the Irish revolutionary Roger David Casement (1864-1916) who, after a long anddistinguished career as a British consul in Africa and South America, turned into an Irish revolutionary, remains source of inspiration for academic research as well as for the creation of fictional texts. The aim of this project is to explore the importance of testimonial writing, such as that of Roger Casement’s consular Congo Report, in revealing the trauma of colonial policy related to the rubber boom, and its representations in fiction. Furthermore, I undertake the task of translating into Portuguese Roger Casement’s personal 1903 Diary and his official Report on the rubber economy in the Congo. These documents were organized in The Eyes of Another Race: Roger Casement’s Congo Report and 1903 Diary (2004), edited by the Irish anthropologist SeamasO’Siochain

‘The Soul Shone Through His Face’: Roger Casement in Works of Fiction

The aim of this article is to discuss the issue of the representation of the Irish revolutionary Roger David Casement in works of fiction and radiodrama under the light of cultural trauma theory. It will investigate the way in which the image of Roger Casement can be associated with traumatic events that have sealed Anglo-Irish relations in his life, in Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Lost World (1912) and Jamie ONeill’s At Swim, Two Boys (2001); in his trial in Mario Vargas Llosa’s The Dream of the Celt, and finally, and in his afterlife, in David Rudkin’s Cries from Casement as his Bones are Brought to Dublin and in the Annabel Davis-Goff’s The Fox’s Walk.Keywords: Roger Casement, trauma, representation, history, fiction

In the Name of this Land/Em nome desta Terra: Documenting Roger Casement’s presence in the Putumayo

In the Name of this Land/Em Nome desta Terra is a feature documentary film that explores the atrocities committed by rubber barons against theenslaved Indians in Colombia and on the Putumayo River district. Such atrocities were reported in 1910 by the British diplomat Roger Casement, an obstinate human rights defender, in the Amazon and in Africa, who was sentenced to death in 1916 after fighting for the independence of Ireland. In April 2019, in La Chorrera, where the Peruvian Amazon Company was stationed, along 10 days the production crew filmed the lives of the Uitotos, Boras, Ocainas and Muinanes Indians, the four surviving peoples of what is now known as the “indigenous holocaust”
