The Tailor and Ansty is a 1942 book by Eric Cross about the life of the Irish tailor and storyteller, Timothy Buckley, and his wife Anastasia ("Ansty") Buckley (née McCarthy). The book was banned by the Censorship of Publications Board because of its depiction of premarital cohabitation, and its sexual frankness. The local clergy arrived at Buckley's home, and forced him to burn his copy of the book. Frank O'Connor, who had become an authority on the issue, said that a boycott had been arranged against the couple. The ban on the book remained in place until the 1960s.

  • The Tailor and Ansty est un livre d', publié en 1942. Il narre la vie du tailleur et conteur irlandais Timothy Buckley et de sa femme Ansty (Anastasia) Buckley, née McCarthy. Le livre a été interdit par le , l'organe chargé du contrôle des publications en République d'Irlande en raison de sa description de relations pré-maritales et de sa franchise sexuelle. The Tailor and Ansty a fait l'objet d'un débat important en 1942 au Seanad Éireann, la chambre haute du parlement irlandais. Le conteur Buckley y a été accusé d'être « obsédé par le sexe » et sa femme d'être une « demeurée » (« moron »). Il y a aussi été rapporté qu'ils étaient des exemples des « plaies de la lèpre morale » en mesure de «saper le christianisme». Certains éléments du débat de la chambre haute ont été expurgés du compte rendu parce qu'ils contenaient des extraits du livre cités par le sénateur , pour déterminer leur caractère obscène. Le clergé local s'est rendu au domicile de Buckley et l'a forcé à brûler son exemplaire du livre. L'écrivain Frank O'Connor a indiqué qu'un boycott local avait été organisé contre le couple. L'interdiction du livre est restée en vigueur jusqu'aux années 1960. Le livre a été adapté au théâtre en 1968 par , Eamonn Kelly et Brid Lynch jouant le tailleur et sa femme. En 2004, Ronan Wilmot et Nuala Hayes ont relancé la pièce, Ronan Wilmot jouant le tailleur et Nuala Hayes sa femme. En 2004, Cónal Creedon a écrit une adaptation radio, qui a été diffusée par Raidió Teilifís Éireann (RTÉ), avec une troupe de lecteurs dirigée par Niall Toibin. (fr)
  • The Tailor and Ansty is a 1942 book by Eric Cross about the life of the Irish tailor and storyteller, Timothy Buckley, and his wife Anastasia ("Ansty") Buckley (née McCarthy). The book was banned by the Censorship of Publications Board because of its depiction of premarital cohabitation, and its sexual frankness. The Tailor and Ansty was the subject of significant debate in 1942 in Seanad Éireann, Ireland's upper house, in which Buckley was accused of being "sex-obsessed", and his wife of being a "moron". It was said that they were examples of the "sores of moral leprosy" that could "undermine Christianity". Parts of the Seanad debate were struck from the record because they contained quotes from the book made by Sir John Keane, to determine if they were really obscene or not. Keane also made the point that an opponent, Professor Magennis, did not know what sodomy was. The wider debate concerned the activities of the then "Free State Board of Book Censors", and Keane's motion was defeated on a vote by 34–2. The local clergy arrived at Buckley's home, and forced him to burn his copy of the book. Frank O'Connor, who had become an authority on the issue, said that a boycott had been arranged against the couple. The book was adapted for the stage in 1968 by , with Eamonn Kelly and Brid Lynch playing the Tailor and his wife. In 2004 Ronan Wilmot and Nuala Hayes revived the play with Ronan Wilmot playing the Tailor and Nuala Hayes playing Ansty respectively.In 2004 Cónal Creedon wrote a radio adaptation, which was broadcast by Raidió Teilifís Éireann (RTÉ), with a cast of readers headed by Niall Toibin The ban on the book remained in place until the 1960s.
