Juverna

Juverna or Iuverna is a Latin name for Ireland, a less common variant of Hibernia; both derive from the earlier Iverna.[1] Juverna occurs in the works of Juvenal and Pomponius Mela, although James Watson in 1883 argued these refer to Scotland rather than Ireland.[2] The name has been used as a poetic synonym for Ireland by Irish nationalists. In 1805 the Irish High Court judge Robert Johnson published letters in William Cobbett's Political Register under the pen-name "Juverna", which criticised the Dublin Castle administration and sympathised with Robert Emmet;[3] Johnson and Cobbett were convicted of seditious libel, and Johnson was forced to resign from the Bench in disgrace.[4] In Benjamin Ward Richardson's 1888 novel The Son of a Star: A Romance of the Second Century, includes the character "gentle Erine, the Maiden of Love" from "Juverna, the island of eternal youth" to the west of Roman Britain.[5] Juverna was a monthly magazine produced by the Christian Brothers in 1902–1903, and its fundraising Juverna Bazaar of May 1903 had a Gaelic revival theme.[6][7] Juverna gaelic football club won the 1911 Cork Junior Championship. Juverna Press, established by Andrew O'Shaughnessy in 1927, published mainly religious works,[8] including Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus for the 1932 Eucharistic Congress.[9]
