SUMMARY:Translating the Landscape-one-day methodological workshop for early career researchers in the humanities\, social studies\, and visual arts
DESCRIPTION:Translating the Landscape  \n“Translating the Landscape” is a one-day methodological workshop for early career researchers in the humanities\, social studies\, and visual arts\, taking place on 18 May 2023 at the Burren College of Art’s campus in Ballyvaughan. The workshop is developed as a collaboration between the Moore Institute for Research in the Humanities and Social Studies at the University of Galway and the Burren College of Art. The objectives of the workshop are: \n\nDiscuss different ways of creating knowledge on the relation between human culture\, human languages\, and the landscape;\nExplore links between creative arts and social/cultural research to create transdisciplinary paths towards a deeper understanding of place;\nFoster reflection on the researchers’ ethical responsibilities towards human relationship with the environment.\n\nThe workshop is aimed at early career researchers (PhD candidates\, recent PhD graduates\, postdoctoral researchers) in any field of humanities and social studies. Previous knowledge or work in ecocritical/ecological approaches is not required. The workshop will encourage researchers to reflect on how ecological thought and different types of attention to the landscape can be incorporated into their methodologies. The workshop intends to provide food for thought for both the participants’ current and future research projects. \n“Translating the Landscape” will rely on expertise from the Burren College (and especially the staff from the MFA/MA in Art & Ecology)\, from the University of Galway (especially from the School of Languages and the School of Philosophy)\, and other guest speakers\, to engage participants in practical activities situated in the Burren landscape\, such as: \n\nSensory walks;\nMap-making and other creative map-based activities;\nExplorations via photography;\nGroup discussions.\n\nThrough the workshop\, we aim to generate discussions and transdisciplinary conversations between participants and practitioners on how to think ecologically in the humanities\, social studies\, and visual art. \n“Translating the landscape” is free of charge to University of Galway/Burren College students\, staff\, and recent graduates. Transportation to and from the University of Galway will be provided\, as well as lunch. \nIf you are interested\, please contact the organizers Andrea Ciribuco (andrea.ciribuco@universityofgalway.ie)\, Michela Dianetti (m.dianetti1@nuigalway.ie)\, Lucy Elvis (lucy.elvis@universityofgalway.ie)\, Eileen Hutton (ehutton@burrencollege.ie)\, Maria Roca Lizarazu (maria.rocalizarazu@universityofgalway.ie) by 28 February 2023.

SUMMARY:Living amidst conflict and insecurity
DESCRIPTION:Living amidst conflict and insecurity \nWorkshop Program  \nThis one-day research workshop at the University of Galway brings together scholars in the field – including Roger Mac Ginty (Durham University) Caitríona Dowd (Dublin City University)\, Niall Ó Dochartaigh (University of Galway)\, and Sarah Jenkins (University of Galway) – alongside Early Career Researchers from Ulster University and University College Dublin to explore the broad themes of everyday peace\, resistance and conflict in a wide range of contexts. It is organised by the Power\, Conflict & Ideologies Research Cluster of the School of Political Science and Sociology at Galway with the support of the Political Studies Association of Ireland’s Peace and Conflict Specialist Group. \nAlmost one quarter of the world’s population live in fragile\, insecure\, or conflict-affected states. Yet amidst uncertainty\, individuals\, communities\, local leaders\, and groups often develop innovative ways to navigate everyday life\, to mitigate violence\, to open channels of communication\, and to build peace. Failure to fully understand and engage with these local\, bottom-up efforts can overlook important opportunities for peace and can undermine the effectiveness of peacebuilding interventions. This event will bring together researchers from the political and social sciences to explore these dynamics in diverse contexts around the world and will examine the various avenues to peace\, justice\, and reconciliation from a range of different perspectives. \nThose interested in attending the event should register by emailing sarah.jenkins@universityofgalway.ie. \n  \nPROGRAMME (living amidst conflict may 2023) \n10am-10.30am: Registration and welcome \n10.30am-11.45am: Panel 1 – Gender\, race\, and sexualities in peace and conflict  \nChair: Niall Ó Dochartaigh \nPapers: \nCaitríona Dowd (DCU) – Gendered dimensions of hunger in peacebuilding \nMarianna Espinos Blasco (Ulster University) – Seeing gender and race in peace and security: The politics of (in)visibility in the Women\, Peace and Security agenda \nYuliang Lu (UCD) – Peace and conflict in a queer colour: A case study of how Chinese NGOs fight anti-LGBT violence \n11.45am-12.00pm: Break \n12pm-1.30pm: Panel 2: Avenues to peace and justice \nChair: Sarah Jenkins \nPapers: \nDana Guy (UCD) – From the battlefield to the battle on the feed: How do Israelis use social media to construct\, communicate and engage with alternative narratives about the conflict with the Palestinians?  \nKelsey Rhude (University of Galway) – Alternative approaches to post-conflict peace and justice: Analysing the interconnections between local justice\, peacebuilding and reconciliation in post-conflict Liberia \nNiall Ó Dochartaigh (University of Galway) – Back-channel negotiations in the Northern Ireland Conflict \n1.30pm – 2.15pm:  Lunch \n2.15-3.45pm: Panel 3: Everyday peace and conflict: representations and practices \nChair: Caitríona Dowd \nPapers: \nDave Banks (UCD) – Integrated team sport and intergroup relations in a post-conflict society: The case of club rugby in Northern Ireland \nSarah Jenkins (University of Galway) – Everyday peace and democracy: Navigating violent elections and ethnic politics in Kenya \nMichael Breslin (UCD) – Feud violence in Ireland and Northern Ireland: A sociological analysis \nMaria Guilia Molinaro Vitale (UCD) – Responsibilities of contemporary representations of war: Merlau-Ponty\, Sontag\, and Hollywood \n 3.45pm-4pm: Break \n 4pm-5.30pm: Keynote and round table: Everyday peace \nRoger Mac Ginty (Durham University): Everyday peace \n6.15pm – Book Launch:  Deniable Contact: Back-channel negotiation in Northern Ireland by Niall Ó Dochartaigh.

SUMMARY:Centre for Irish Studies Seminar: Heroes of the Gaelic World in the Digital Age: The Fionn Folklore Database
DESCRIPTION:Heroes of the Gaelic World in the Digital Age: The Fionn Folklore Database \nDr Pádraig Fhia Ó Mathúna \nYou are warmly invited to attend an in-person seminar with Dr Pádraig Fhia Ó Mathúna\, ‘The Fionn Folklore Database: Irish Myths in the Digital Age’ on Thursday 18 May. The seminar will take place in the Seminar Room\, Centre for Irish Studies\, Distillery Road. This seminar is based on Pádraig’s bilingual postdoctoral work with the Fionn Folklore Database Digital Humanities Project\, in association with Harvard University and University College Dublin. Full details are available below. \nThe Fionn Folklore Database (fionnfolklore.org) is a collaborative project between Harvard University and the Irish Government’s Emigrant Support Scheme. The site contains the details of approximately 3\,500 orally collected tales\, poems\, songs and proverbs relating to Fionn mac Cumhaill and the legendary Fianna. In addition to the stories themselves\, the site contains a number of educational tools\, including glossaries\, character lists\, digital maps\, and summaries\, which help to make these legends accessible for a new generation. In this talk\, project researcher Pádraig Fhia Ó Mathúna will provide insight into the site’s background and resources\, conveying how everyone from researchers to teachers\, writers\, and the general public can benefit from this innovative digital humanities initiative.  \nDr Pádraig Fhia Ó Mathúna is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher with the Fionn Cycle Folklore Project with Harvard University and University College Dublin\,  and a researcher for the ÚRSCÉAL digital humanities project based in the University of Galway.   \nA former Fulbright Scholar at the University of Galway\, he was a Caspersen Doctoral Fellow at Drew University\, and was awarded the Tadhg Foley MA Fellowship from the University of Galway\, where he completed his MA in Irish Studies (2013). His book ‘From a Land Beyond the Wave’: Connecticut’s Irish Rebels\, 1798-1916 (2017) won the Connecticut League of History Organizations’ Publication Prize (2018). His research focuses primarily on the interactions between Irish-American nationalists\, indigenous peoples\, and other ethno-political groups in the North American Borderlands and the Caribbean during the mid-nineteenth century. As a Fulbright scholar in the archives at University of Galway\, Pádraig conducted research on the writings of nineteenth century Irish emigrant Eoin Ua Cathail\, and  published a critical volume of the translated works of Irish language writer Eoin Ua Cathail\, entitled Recovering an Irish Voice from the American Frontier: The Prose Writings of Eoin Ua Cathail in 2021.
