SUMMARY:Early Modern Travel: Theory and Practice\, International Conference 27-28th September
DESCRIPTION:Early Modern Travel: Theory and Practice \nIn the early modern period the development of inquiries\, questionnaires\, and directions for travel proliferated in an attempt to make travel a useful and productive activity. This conference explores the widespread effort to provide instruction\, as well as the travel practices that emerged in response to and in tension with these demands in the domains of natural history and cultural and political observation. Travel developed as a scholarly enterprise and was also incorporated into wider debates among humanists and other authorities evaluating religion\, military conflict\, and commercial expansion. The conference breaks down the separation between European and ‰Û÷exotic‰۪ travel (in the Ottoman Empire\, Persia\, Arabia) and challenges conventional periodization by describing traditions from the Renaissance to Enlightenment.  \nParticipants from Ireland\, the UK\, France\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, Italy\, Denmark\, and Brazil\, will discuss figures ranging from Hakluyt to Montaigne\, Knolles\, La Loub̬re and Michaelis. \n‰ÛÏTexts\, Contexts\, Culture‰۝ is funded under the Higher Education Authority\, under PRTLI4 http://www.hea.ie \nFriday 27 September \n  \n9.15Registration and Welcome \nSession 1: 16th Century agendas \nChair: Jane Grogan (UCD) \nEdward Collins (UCD/Universidad Pablo de Olavide\, Seville) \n‰Û÷Marriage\, Union\, and the Transfer of Knowledge in the Maritime Enterprises of Spain\, Portugal and England in the Sixteenth Century‰۪ \nLadan Niayesh (Paris 7) \n‰Û÷From Travel Guide to Collection of Exempla: Andrew Borde‰۪s The First Book of the Introduction of Knowledge (1547)‰۪ \n10.45 Coffee and tea break \n11.15Session 2: Networks\, politics\, and instructional strategies \nChair: Daniel Carey (NUI Galway) \nSebastian Sobecki (Groningen) \n‰Û÷Innocent Espionage: Robert Cecil‰۪s Network and John Peyton‰۪s Travels in Central Europe\, 1598-1603‰۪ \nPaola Molino (Austrian National Library) \n‰Û÷The Importance of Being ‰ÛÏInstructed‰۝ in the Late 16th-Century Scholarly World‰۪ \n12.30Lunch \n2.00bus departure for Claregalway \n14.45Session 3: The Arabian Voyage\, 1761-1767 \nChair: Ida Pugliese (NUI Galway/Marie Curie IEF) \nDaniel Carey (NUI Galway)\,  \n‰۪J.D.

SUMMARY:Seeing the World: Travel\, Text\, Image - International conference 27-28 September 2013
DESCRIPTION:Seeing the world: Travel\, text\, image \nAuthors of travel narratives attempting to convey in words their discoveries and observations increasingly turned to images to support their text. In this they were encouraged by publishers and the public\, developing in time a dedicated art industry and new book forms. This conference focuses attention on the various uses of graphic art in topographical and ethnographical writing by travellers from the Early Modern period to the present\, and the relationship between text and image. \nThe topics proposed by the participants\, from Italy\, Switzerland\, America\, France\, Greece and Ireland\, range from the iconography of specific areas\, such as Switzerland\, the Eastern Mediterranean\, the Western Mediterranean\, Ireland\, to the work of particular individuals\, notably Jonathan Fisher\, Luttrell Wynne\, Beranger and Bigari in Ireland and W.H.J. Browne in the Arctic. Among the areas covered are the National Library of Ireland‰۪s resources for research on travel\, the implications of evolving media for both text and image\, including their online presence. Present-day topographical writing and the images it engenders are the focus of a session devoted to Tim Robinson‰۪s Connemara trilogy. \n‰Û÷Texts\, Contexts\, Cultures‰۪ is funded by the Higher Education Authority\, under PRTLI4 (http://www.hea.ie). This conference is supported by generous funding from the Andrew W.
