SUMMARY:Digital Scholarship Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Digital Scholarship Seminar\, November 2013. \n12-2pm\, Wednesday 20 November\, Moore Institute Seminar Room. \nThe second event of the Autumn/Winter series of DSS is a lunchtime seminar featuring presentations from researchers in English and Huston School (abstracts below):  \nCiara Griffin (English). ‰Û÷The Author is Glitched: Media-Specificity and the Non-Western Writer.‰۪ \nHilary Dully (Huston School). ‰Û÷Digital Issues in Practice-based Research.‰۪ \nThe seminar will be followed by discussion and lunch\, provided by the Moore Institute\, at 1pm. \nwww.facebook.com/nuigdss  \nwww.nuigalway.ie/digital-seminar  \nJoin the DSS mailing list \nCiara Griffin (English). ‰Û÷The Author is Glitched: Media-Specificity and the Non-Western Writer.‰۪ \nScholarly interest in the materiality of the book has accelerated alongside the proliferation of the digital-born text. The paradigmatic book at the centre of much media-specific literary analysis is often that particular object emergent from the development of print in Europe and the Occident. In this paper I examine ‰Û÷flawed‰۪ or ‰Û÷imperfect‰۪ editions (UK/India) of Bapsi Sidhwa‰۪s text Ice-Candy Man (1988) to discuss the ways that theorisations of the ‰Û÷glitch‰۪ can allow us to unpack the specific hegemonies implicit to what we mean by the ‰Û÷materiality of the book‰۪. I explore the ways in which the hidden machinery of texts has been revealed through philosophical explorations of otherness as well as those newly emerging discourses of media-specific analysis focusing on the body of the text. I argue that an integration of such subject and object-oriented approaches\, through the lens of the glitch\, offers new tools for theorising the non-Western or marginal author-function. \nHilary Dully (Huston School). ‰Û÷Digital Issues in Practice-based Research.‰۪ \nThe digital revolution of the past decade has altered filmmaking and artistic practice in many interesting and profound ways.In the history of film the auteur has been accorded a degree of reverence\, occupying top position in the traditional\, hierarchical crewing system for the production of films\, formally a collaborative process\, involving the specialised creative skills of crewmembers in the film production line. Digital technology\, in particular the development of desktop post-production software\, has altered and disrupted the traditional filmmaking practice.What are the possibilities and pitfalls for ‰Û÷the new digital auteur\,‰۪ working alone\, filming on an iphone\, editing on a laptop\, and publishing on Youtube?And\, how do these questions and issues relate to digital arts research and practice in third level institutions? This presentation will also consider the possibilities and implications of ‰Û÷fair use‰۪ and copyright law in digital arts practice and scholarship.

SUMMARY:Finnegans Wake reading group
DESCRIPTION:If you like gossiping\, poetry\, languages\, puns\, puzzles\, jokes\, double entendres or even avant-garde tomes\, you might like Finnegans Wake. Despite its scurrilous critical reputation\, James Joyce’s final workis not as difficult as it would first appear and\,when    read as part of a group\, can be a hugely rewarding experience. It is    our hope to read the text episodically\, playing close attention to the    rhythm and musicality of the piece; we aim to stress the looseness of    the text without resort to lucidity. \nNo prior experience of Joyce is necessary and the meetings will be very informal so everyone is very welcome. \nConsider joining our Facebook group to keep abreast of news\, dates and any strange Joycean ephemera that we find. ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/359211964211176/ )  \nFor more information please contact siobhanmpurcell@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Travel\, Science\, and the Question  of Observation: 1580-1800
DESCRIPTION:Travel\, Science\, and the Question of Observation: 1580-1800 \nIn the early modern period\, the emergence of travel as a means of information gathering on natural history\, demography\, government\, and religion was accompanied by the use of questionnaires to orient observation. This conference investigates the development of techniques of information gathering of this kind and the networks on which they relied. Papers address the integral role of travel in the process of scientific exchange as well as to the ways that information itself traveled in British\, French\, Spanish\, and Swedish contexts. \nThe conference is supported by generous funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation (http://www.mellon.org) and by the Heyman Center for the Humanities at Columbia University\, with the assistance of the Moore Institute for the Humanities and Social Studies\, National University of Ireland\, Galway.

SUMMARY:From Ego to Eco III: Seeking Shelter or dwelling in the Open? - Examining Ecocritical Approaches to Human Habitation
DESCRIPTION:We cordially invite you to participate in the third ‰ÛÏFrom Ego to Eco‰۝ Symposium ant the 11th of October\, 10-6\, Moore Institute\, NUI Galway\,  hosted by German/ The School of Languages\, Literatures and Cultures.  This time we focus on the nature/culture divide of human habitation. A detailed programme will be circulated shortly \nSeeking Shelter or dwelling in the Open? ‰ÛÒ Examining Ecocritical Approaches to Human Habitation \nFrom a socio-historical point of view\, the human need for shelter seems unquestionable. For millennia humans have built dwelling places to shelter themselves and their belongings from exposure to the threats posed by their environments. But whereas fences and shelters once seemed essential to our survival\, in an age of over-population and ecological crises\, in which mankind figures as the single biggest threat to the well-being of the ecosphere\, it is the environment which seems in need of being sheltered from us.  Our faith in the fence seems inexhaustible: Where once we shut nature out\, we now shut nature in\, in nature reserves and conservation zones trying to exempt species and habitats from destruction. These exemptions\, however\, are little more than an alibi for ever greater exploitation and eradication of wilderness on the outside. In the face of the fact that we cannot save the planet by trying to save ourselves\, literature and philosophy ask new and provocative questions: Can we acknowledge and approve of our contingencies with and exposures to the environment? Are we ready to face the open\, in which we participate regardless of how and where we live: the water cycle\, the atmosphere and the earth? Are we willing yet to extend the privilege of the sanctity of life beyond humanity to other species? Both literature and philosophy respond to these questions by reflecting on modes of habitation and imaginatively conceiving them anew. From return-to-wilderness narratives and post-apocalyptic scenarios of exposure\, to the outright refusal to tell the human self from its non-human environments in poetry via prosopopeia\, literature abounds with depictions of life outside conventional modes of shelteredness. On the other hand\, literature reflects on the parameters\, conditions and consequences of settlement\, migration and diaspora and their implications for humans and environments.  Already the myth of the expurgation of mankind from Eden\, which Caroline Merchant describes as the ‰ÛÏperhaps [‰Û_] most important mythology humans have developed to make sense of their relationship to the earth\,‰۝ depicts a ‰ÛÏturning away‰۝ of humans from the presence of the immanent perambulating divine. (3) What of the tradition of ‰ÛÏrecovery of Eden‰۝ narratives\, then – are they help or hindrance on our way to reconciled dwelling? Giorgio Agamben in the majority of his works (i.e. Homo Sacer  [1995]\, The Open ‰ÛÒ of Man and Animal [2004]\, Profanations [2007])  discusses the consequences and implications of the sacred as a practice of dividing and setting apart within man ‰ÛÏgood life‰۝ (human\, worthy of protection\, endowed with a human ‰ÛÏface‰۝) and ‰ÛÏbare life‰۝ (exposed and ready to be killed\, animal). This caesura\, according to Agamben\, posits the concentration camp as the foundational paradigm of Western political life and not as its exception. These thoughts seem to us urgently relevant to thinking about shelteredness and openness in literature and environmental thought.  \n10:00 Registration and Welcome \nKeynote: \n10:30-11:30 Axel Goodbody (University of Bath) \nHeimat\, Shelter and the Place of Humans in the World: Jenny Erpenbeck’s Heimsuchung \nPanel 1: \n11: 30 ‰ÛÒ 12:00 Conn Holohann (NUI Galway) \nIn Praise of Error: Cosmopolitan Space in the Films of Claire Denis‰۪ \n12:00-12:30 David Conlon (NUI Maynooth) \nTechnology as environment and refuge in Ricardo Piglia’s The Absent City \n12:30- 13:00 Michael Sauter (Augsburg University) \nSeeking Shelter\, Building Fires: London\, McCarthy\, ‰Û_and LukÌÁcs? \n13:00- 14:00Lunch Break \nKeynote: \n14:00-15:00Tim Wenzell (Virginia Union University) \nGreen Deity: Nature as mind in Robert Graves The White Goddess \nPanel 2: \n15:00- 15: 30Heike Schwarz\, (Augsburg University) \n‰ÛÏIs anyone seeing this?‰۝: Ecopsychopathology\, Ecocalypse or Environmental Madness in American Fiction and Jeff Nicholå«s Take Shelter (2011) \n15:30- 16:00Sabine Lenore MÌ_ller (Leipzig University) \n“The house door left unshut” – Environmental Modernism and the Open in R.

SUMMARY:Finnegans Wake reading group
DESCRIPTION:If you like gossiping\, poetry\, languages\, puns\, puzzles\, jokes\, double entendres or even avant-garde tomes\, you might like Finnegans Wake. Despite its scurrilous critical reputation\, James Joyce’s final workis not as difficult as it would first appear and\,when  read as part of a group\, can be a hugely rewarding experience. It is  our hope to read the text episodically\, playing close attention to the  rhythm and musicality of the piece; we aim to stress the looseness of  the text without resort to lucidity. \nNo prior experience of Joyce is necessary and the meetings will be very informal so everyone is very welcome. \nConsider joining our Facebook group to keep abreast of news\, dates and any strange Joycean ephemera that we find.
