SUMMARY:Book Launch: 'The Long War' by John Morrissey
DESCRIPTION: \nThe Long War  \nCENTCOM\, Grand Strategy\, and Global Security by John Morrissey \nNowhere has the U.S. military established more bases\, lost more troops\, or spent more money in the last thirty years than in the Middle East and Central Asia. These regions fall under the purview of United States Central Command (CENTCOM); not coincidentally\, they include the most energy-rich places on earth. From its inception\, CENTCOM was tasked with the military and economic security of this key strategic area\, the safeguarding of commercial opportunities therein\, and ulti­mately the policing of a pivotal yet precarious space in the broader global economy. CENTCOM calls this mission its “Long War.” This book tells the story of that long war: a war underpinned by a range of entangled geopolitical and geoeconomic visions and involving the use of the most devastating Western interventionary violence of our time. \nStarting with a historical perspective\, John Morrissey explores CENTCOM’s Cold War origins and evolution\, before addressing key elements of the command’s grand strategy\, including its interventionary rationales and use of the law in war. Engaging a wide range of scholarship on neoliberalism\, imperialism\, geopoli­tics\, and Orientalism\, the book then looks in-depth at the military interventions CENTCOM has spearheaded and critically assesses their consequences in terms of human geography. \nRecent books on CENTCOM have focused on command structures\, intelligence issues\, and interpersonal rivalries. In contrast\, The Long War asks critical ques­tions about CENTCOM’s leading role in shaping and enacting U.S. foreign policy over the last thirty years. The book positions CENTCOM pivotally in the story of U.S. global ambition over this period by documenting its efforts to oversee a global security strategy defined in military-economic terms and enabled via specific legal-territorial tactics. This is an important new study on the blurring of war and economic aims on a global scale. \nJohn Morrissey is a senior lecturer in geography and associate director of the Moore Institute for Humanities at National University of Ireland\, Galway. \n

SUMMARY:BRESAL 2017: Europe and the Social
DESCRIPTION:BRESAL 2017: Europe and the Social \nSupported by the O’Donoghue Centre for Drama\, Theatre and Performance and the School of Humanities Research Incentivisation Scheme \nNUI Galway 26-27 October 2017  \n  \nEurope\, as continent\, social community\, and political union\, is in crisis. Societies are fraught with economic instability and cultural tensions\, while the refugee crisis has led to humanitarian devastation and renewed vociferous debate about the limits of inclusion and tolerance within European societies. The growth of far-right politics as well as the tone and tenor of its discourse present alarming threats in social\, political and cultural realms. For states lying outside the boundaries of the European Union on the continent\, perhaps differing concerns animate many of the same tensions. Europe and the world await to see how the UK’s exit from the EU will shift balances of power\, prestige and access in European society and beyond. \nArtists and scholars\, through this symposium\, are invited to question the relationship(s) across art\, society and the past\, present and future(s) of the European project through interdisciplinary enquiry and practice. Panels will explore the historical contexts of European arts practice\, scholarship\, politics\, culture and society\, as well as focus on the urgency of the present moment\, and anxieties regarding the future. \nWhat is the role of the artist in the contemporary as well as historical moment in reshaping and calling into question the boundaries of “Europeanness” on scales ranging from the individual to the supra-national? What promise does looking towards practice-as-research as methodology and mode of social engagement at this particular juncture hold for European communities? And what warnings? \nBRESAL is a forum for artists and scholars who are passionate about the intelligence of art. Based on the West Coast of Ireland\, it was founded by the Burren College of Art\, the Huston School of Film and Digital Media (NUI Galway) and the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance (UL). Its goal is to provide opportunities for artists-scholars to share their work\, support doctoral level arts research\, and advocate for recognition and support at a national and international level. The forum takes its name and inspiration from the mythical Celtic island of ‘Bresal’: an island off the West Coast of Ireland known to appear and disappear magically. It is a metaphor for our interest in art’s intelligence: sometimes obvious and sometimes illusive; both measurable and intangible. \nNote: There is a free event\, but tickets must be reserved in advance. Please reserve tickets at \n  \n  \nPROGRAMME \n  \nThursday 26 October  \nNote: Art exhibitions from UL and the Burren College of Art on display throughout the conference  \n2.30: Registration \n3pm: Opening Comments \nCathal O’Donoghue\, Dean of the College of Arts\, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies\, NUI Galway \nVenue: Theatre \n3.15 – 4.00: Performance-extract by Emma O’Grady\, with post-show discussion \nChair: Marianne Ni Chinneide \nVenue: Theatre \n4.00 – 4.15: Break \n4.15 – 5.00: Film-extract by Uinsionn MacDubhghaill\, with post-screening discussion \nChair: Seán Crosson \nVenue: Theatre \n5.15 – 6.15: Book launch: Migration and Performance in Contemporary Ireland: Towards a New Interculturalism (Palgrave) by Dr Charlotte McIvor \nVenue: Studio 1 \n  \nFriday 27 October  \nVenue: All panels taking place in the theatre \n10.00 – 11.30 Panel 1: Borders\, Fragmentation and the Social \nChair: Felix O’Murchadha \nCharlotte McIvor (DTP\, NUI Galway): “Theatre as Intercultural Dialogue?

SUMMARY:Screening of the silent film\, Nosferatu\, with a score performed live by Con Tempo Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Galway Music Residency in association with the Huston School of Film & Digital Media present a screening of the silent film\, Nosferatu\, with a score performed live by Con Tempo Quartet\n \nThursday October 26\, 7.30pm\, Huston Main \nIf you’re looking for something a little different this Halloween\, the Galway Music Residency has just the thing! This unique event\, in association with NUI Galway\, is sure to give you that spooky feeling. \nThis classic 1922 silent film was the first onscreen interpretation of the story of Dracula and\, though banned at the time for copyright infringements\, it has gone down in cinematic history as one of the greatest horror films ever made. \n\nWhile this great classic is being screened next Thursday\,26th October\,  the Galway ConTempo Quartet will perform a very special live score composed in the 1990s to provide a fresh sound-scape for such a timeless piece of film. It was composed by French specialist Baudime Jam in 2002 for the Prima Vista Quartet which has performed it in numerous times internationally. The score has since become part of the repertoire of a number of other renowned string quartets including the Debussy Quartet. \nTickets for this unique event cost €10/€5 and can be purchased at Nosferatu Live or on the door. \n

SUMMARY:'Orlando Furioso\, cinema and the challenge of fiction' A Talk by Dr Stefano Jossa
DESCRIPTION:Italian School of Languages\, Literatures & Cultures \nThe Moore Institute Presents; \nStefano Jossa\, Royal Holloway \nOrlando Furioso\, cinema and the challenge of fiction \n \nSince C. S. Lewis famously compared Tolkien’s imagination to Ariosto’s on the blurb of the first edition of The Fellowship of the Ring (1954)\, the linking between Orlando Furioso\, Tolkien’s trilogy\, and cinema can easily be established and would prove a fruitful one. This paper will explore Orlando Furioso’s presence in film productions from the 1980s with the aim to investigate further the suitability of Ariosto’s masterpiece to contemporary fiction-making processes. \nStefano Jossa is Reader in Italian Studies at Royal Holloway\, University of London. He has authored books on Ariosto (La fantasia e la memoria. Intertestualità ariostesche\, Liguori 1996; Ariosto\, il Mulino 2009)\, the Italian Renaissance (Rappresentazione e scrittura. La crisi delle forme poetiche rinascimentali (1540-1560)\, Vivarium 1996; La fondazione di un genere. Il poema eroico tra Ariosto e Tasso\, Carocci 2001) and Italian national identity expressed through literarture (L’Italia letteraria\, il Mulino\, 2006; Un paese senza eroi. L’Italia da Jacopo Ortis a Montalbano\, Laterza\, 2013). In 2017 he hold the De Sanctis Chair at the Polytechnic (ETH) of Zurich (Switzerland) and was Visiting Professor at the Università degli Studi di Parma (Italy). \n

SUMMARY:Collections as Data - Hackathon / Collaborative Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 2-day Collaborative Workshop / Hackathon / Exploration of creativity using humanities research data. \n\nDo you use research strategies like text or data mining\, social network analysis\, machine learning\, or geocoding in your research?\nDo you have subject expertise in cataloguing records\, digital humanities\, or working with digital collections found in libraries\, archives\, or cultural heritage institutions?\nCan you apply your design skills or artistic talents to visualise complex datasets\, help researchers gain new insights\, or engage with non-specialist audiences?\nAre you curious about any of these things?\n\nNUI Galway\, through the Moore Institute and the NUI Galway Library\, has developed expertise in the creation of digital archives and research-led collections. The Insight Centre for Data Analytics are world-leaders in the interpretation and analysis of data. \nWith digital archives and data collections drawn from humanities research as your foundation\, you will collaborate in small groups of researchers and practitioners over two days to explore and create. You will walk away with a community of support\, and an idea of the possibilities of using collections as data. \nThe plan\nOver this free two-day hands-on hackathon-style event\, you will explore what people from diverse backgrounds can create when they work together. \nYou will work in groups of 3 people. Each group will consist of a humanities researcher\, a developer / engineer\, and an artist / designer. Over the course of the two days\, you will work on a collection of your choice to produce an output that draws on the team’s range of interests\, ideas and skills. \nWe will provide mentors to help you along the way\, facilities to work in (including an on-site MakerSpace\, if required)\, and food and drinks to keep you going. For those coming from outside Galway\, we will have a limited number of bursaries available to cover travel within Ireland and accommodation. \nSample Collections\nSome examples of datasets produced by researchers at NUI Galway that you could work with include: \n\nDuanaire – a collection of datasets related to Irish economic history. One example is Customs15\, which is made up of quantitative trade data spanning over 100 years\, with data on locations and types of goods\, along with high-resolution digitised images of the original source manuscripts.\nEarlier Latin Manuscripts – A collection of data and high-resolution images of Latin manuscripts published before the year 800.\nLanded Estates  – Data\, including location and images\, on landed estates and historic houses in Ireland (c.1700 – 1914).\nTim Robinson Archive  – An index describing 567 town-lands in Aran and Connemara. This draws together information on the language of local place-names\, folktales\, and historical\, geological\, archaeological and botanical information from each town-land.\n\nYou are welcome to suggest external collections to work on\, either as part of a stand-alone project\, or with a view to integrating it with a collection developed by researchers at NUI Galway. We will also provide a list of suggested collections closer to the event. \nInterested?\nWe have a limited number of places available for this event; applications will be reviewed in order to ensure a balance in the skills and interests of participants. If you are interested in applying to participate\, please complete the Expression of Interest form\, and we will be in touch. \nAttendees will need to be available to participate on both days of the event\, on November 29th and 30th.\nOnce we finalise sponsorship arrangements\, we will be in a position to confirm the number and value of available travel bursaries. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact David Kelly (david.d.kelly@nuigalway.ie) at the Moore Institute\, NUI Galway. \nSupported by\n\n\n\n\n
