2015-03-09 16:00
The Centre for Global Women’s Studies
is delighted to invite you to a public lecture to mark
International Women’s Day 2015:
A Collaborative, Community-based Study to Define and Measure:
Empowering Practice and “Empowered” Outcomes
Cris M. Sullivan, Ph.D.
Professor, Ecological/Community Psychology
Director, Research Consortium on Gender-based Violence
Michigan State University
Date/Time: Monday 9 March, 4pm
Venue: THB1001, First Floor, Hardiman Research Building, NUI Galway
Refreshments will be served
The goal of empowerment-based programs is to help clients increase their personal, interpersonal, and political power. This talk describes a collaborative partnership with a domestic violence shelter program interested in evaluating how well they were integrating the empowerment model into day-to-day service provision and whether their approach to empowerment-based service delivery was contributing to the intended “empowered outcomes” for the women with whom they work. I will describe how we jointly defined empowerment within this setting, how the empowerment-based practices and intended empowered outcomes were measured, and how the study findings impacted the work of the advocates.

Professor Elizabeth Fitzpatrick: Finn mac Cumaill's Places: Linking Human Settlement with Landscapes of Enriched Natural Resources
2015-03-05 18:00
Professor Elizabeth Fitzpatrick
(School of Geography and Archaeology NUI Galway )
Finn mac Cumaill’s Places: Linking Human Settlement with Landscapes of Enriched Natural Resources
Finn mac Cumaill (Finn McCool) and his fÌ_an or warrior band are central figures in the literature and oral tradition of Gaelic-speaking peoples of Ireland, Scotland and the Isle of Man. Finn variously means white, bright, lustrous, fair, enlightened and self-revealed. Tales of Finn have enduring appeal. Prof. Elizabeth FitzPatrick’s project with Dr Ronan Hennessy and Dr Paul Naessens, of NUI Galway, An Atlas of Finn mac Cumaill’s Places, proposes that place-names associated with Finn are not just folk indices of the Finn-Cycle of tales but indicate areas of enriched natural resources and physical boundaries in the landscape.
The project has discovered that Finn’s places have distinctive archaeologies, topographies and wildlife ecologies situated in geological transition zones characterised by unconformities, contacts and faults. As landforms, they are epitomised by bareness and are mostly hills, variously called Seefin (‰Û÷Finn’s seat’), Knockfinn (‰Û÷Finn’s Hill’) and Formoyle (‰Û÷very bare place’), but they are also caves, such as Fingal’s Cave on the Isle of Arran, and causeways like the World Heritage Giant’s Causeway on the Co. Antrim coastline. In the past, Finn‰Û÷s places were important boundary points of territories, hunting grounds for red deer and wild pig, and characterised by mineral enrichment.
Finn’s places on the edge of Western Europe may be the most enduring survival of a wider landscape expression of the Celtic place-name vindo-s and its associated phenomena of boundary zones and areas of enriched natural resources. Notably, it is found in Celtic settlements across Europe that became major Roman frontier forts.

Public Lecture: Paddy Woodworth -'Writing Restoration: A Global Journey to the Cutting Edge of Conservation Science & Practice'
2015-02-26 19:00
Public talk on writing about the environment at NUI Galway
Author and lecturer Paddy Woodworth is to give a guest talk titled ‰Û÷Writing Restoration: A Global Journey to the Cutting Edge of Conservation Science & Practice’ at NUI Galway on 26 February at 7pm.
The talk, part of the “Doing Writing” series organized by the BA and MA programmes in Creative Writing at NUI Galway, will be based on Woodworth’s most recent book, Our Once and Future Planet: Restoring the World in the Climate Change Century, published by Chicago University Press.
Ten years in the making, Our Once and Future Planet focuses on projects across the world that attempt to reverse damage to the environment and restore healthy and biodiverse ecosystems. The book has received international acclaim for its extensive research and key arguments, and also for the accessibility of its style. Science magazine emphasized that Woodworth “skillfully dissects the arguments surrounding the purpose and direction of ecological restoration”, while also especially commending his “effective use of narrative techniques to enhance his presentation. His descriptions of the people he meets are often charming and revealing”.
Formerly a Visiting Fellow on the International Writing Programme at the University of Iowa, and most recently a visiting lecturer at the University of Chicago, Woodworth has published widely on the arts, travel, Basque and Spanish affairs, and national and international environment issues. He regularly writes on these and related areas for the Irish Times.
Woodworth also works as an editor for scientists who wish to reach a wide public readership, and he is a mentor for creative writers at NUI Galway working on projects related to factual narration and other forms of creative non-fiction.
This public talk will take place on 26 February at NUI Galway in the Moore Institute for Research in the Humanities and Social Studies (ground floor, room G010) at 7pm. Booking is not required, but seating may be limited.

Word-Bridges: Translation in Ireland Symposium
2015-02-20 09:00
Word-Bridges: Translation in Ireland Symposium
This symposium examines translation in Ireland with a particular focus on the years 1700-1900.

It will look at translation between Irish and English side by side with translation from other languages into English. The symposium will examine translations in a European context to question how these works both provided links with the continent while also reflecting European trends in cultural transfer.
Prof Michael Cronin (DCU) will deliver a keynote entitled ‰Û÷The Empire talks back: Translation tales for the coming times’ (11.30-12.30) and Prof. Ann Thomson (EUI Florence) will deliver the second keynote on ‰Û÷Translators as historical actors in the long Eighteenth Century’ (17.00-18.00).

Conference Convener and Contact: Dr. Jason King Jason.king@nuigalway.ie
This symposium examines Irish Theatre and Famine Memory between the periods of the Irish Revival and the rise and fall of Ireland’s Celtic Tiger. It places special emphasis on the performance of Famine remembrance to register moments of national crisis and forced migration in Ireland, both past and present. The symposium brings together leading Irish theatre and famine scholars and theatre practitioners to explore recent productions about the Great Hunger in the era of the Celtic Tiger, such as DruidMurphy’s revival (2012) of Tom Murphy’s Famine (1968), Sonya Kelly’s How to Keep An Alien (2014), Moonfish Theatre’s bilingual English and Irish language adaptation of Joseph O’Connor’s novel Star of the Sea (2014), Jaki McCarrick’s Belfast Girls (2012), Fiona Quinn’s The Voyage of the Orphans (2012), Caroilin Callery and Maggie Gallagher’s “Strokestown – Quebec Connection Youth Arts Project – ‘The Language of Memory and Return’” (2011-2014), Donal O’Kelly’s The Cambria (2005), and Elizabeth Kuti’s The Sugar Wife (2005). Representations of the Great Famine during the Revival in Maud Gonne’s Dawn and early plays staged at the Gate Theatre will also be discussed. The performance of traumatic remembrance of the Famine and pivotal historical events in W.B. Yeats’s The Dreaming of the Bones (1916) will be explored in a keynote address by Professor Chris Morash. Dr. Margu̩rite Corporaal will also deliver a keynote address on the development of international Famine studies and research networks and opportunities for collaboration.
