SUMMARY:Beckett Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:Beckett Reading Group \nThe Beckett Reading Group will reconvene for its second year on Tuesday\, October 16th from 5-6pm in the Moore Seminar Room. Everyone is very welcome! \nAll readings will be kept short\, as this reading group is meant to inspire not increase the work that everyone is doing.  We will be concentrating on his radio and television plays for our first meetings. We hope that considering the implications of these works as texts will lead to stimulating discussion. We hope to foster a dialogue about how these texts are studied as ‰Û÷texts’\, rather than or alongside the medium in which they were incepted. Group members are welcome to bring critical pieces into discussion\, but there is no pressure to do so. In fact\, coming with visceral reactions that form critical inquiry as discussions progress is encouraged.  Email Kristin Jones at k.jones1@nuigalway.ie  and  David Delaney d.delaney2@nuigalway.ie with any questions. \nThe dates and first few readings are as follows: \nMeeting One: 16 Oct. Embers \nWeek Two:  6 Nov. All That Fall \nWeek Three:  20 Nov.  …but the clouds… \nWeek Four: 4 Dec.  Nacht und TrÌ_ume \nWe will reconvene in Semester 2.

SUMMARY:Brian Arkins - Interrogating Terms Such as 'Classical\, Tradition and Decorum'
DESCRIPTION:Interrogating Terms Such as ” Classical\, Tradition and Decorum” \nThe adjective ‘Classical’ now means so many things as to be useless for serious discourse. The term ‘Tradition’ – what is handed down – is the wrong kind of metaphor to apply to how a writer uses material from the past. It suggests a passive process\, but the process is\, rather\, active. As Eliot said\, “mature poets steal”.The concept of ‘Decorum’ – as supposedly found in Milton and in Virgil – cannot be mandatory. The plays of Shakespeare do not do ‘Decorum’.

SUMMARY:School of Physics Seminar Programme 2012-13
DESCRIPTION:School of Physics Seminar Programme 2012-2013\nMinimally invasive optical method for assessment of brain perfusion deficits\nStudies on a minimally-invasive technique allowing for assessment of brain perfusion at the bedside will be described. The method is based on time-resolved near infrared spectroscopy combined with monitoring of  inflow and washout of indocyanine green (ICG) into the brain after its intravenous administration. Instrumental aspects of the time-resolved optical measurements carried out with sub-nanosecond resolution  will be discussed. Techniques of monitoring of circulation of ICG based on measurements of changes in absorption as well as fluorescence of the dye excited in near infrared wavelength region will be presented. \n The speaker is Prof. Adam Liebert\, head of the Department of Biophysical Measurements and Imaging of the Nalecz Institute of Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering in Warsaw\, Poland. He received his Ph.D. and D.Sc. in biomedical engineering from the Institute of Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering of the Polish Academy of Sciences. His main area of interest is the application of near infrared spectroscopy in tissue oxygenation assessment and development of brain perfusion evaluation methodology based on time-resolved measurement of diffusely reflected light during injection of an optical contrast agent\, as well as detection of fluorescence of the exogenous dye circulating in the tissue.

SUMMARY:Instructions\, Questions and Directions: Learning to Observe in Scientific Travel\, 1550-1870
DESCRIPTION:Instructions\, Questions and Directions: \nLearning to Observe in Scientific Travel\, 1550-1870\nInternational conference\nMax Planck Institute for the History of Science\, Berlin\n21-22 September 2012\nThe proliferation of inquiries\, questionnaires\, and directions for scientific travellers is a defining feature of the early modern period\, ranging from Humanist agendas for Continental journeys to formal initiatives by Spanish authorities concerned with colonial administration. Exceptional growth in this practice occurred in a variety of seventeenth\, eighteenth and nineteenth-century contexts. This conference explores the traditions and preoccupations behind this activity in a series of different locations. \n“Texts\, Contexts\, Culture” is funded under the Higher Education Authority\, under PRTLI4 http://www.hea.ie \nThe conference is supported by generous funding from the Andrew W.

SUMMARY:'Ptolemy in Arabic and in Latin'
DESCRIPTION:CAMPS & the Foundations of Irish Culture project\nResearch lab by Dr David Juste\, University of Sydney\n‰ÛÏPtolemy in Arabic and in Latin‰۝ \nThursday 12th July\, 5 p.m.  \nMoore Institute Seminar Room\, NUI Galway \nDr Juste will talk about his Ptolemy research and especially about the project funded by the Forschungsprogramm der Union der deutschen Akademien der Wissenschaften (the Union of German Academies of Science). The project\, ‘Ptolemaeus Arabus et Latinus’\, which was submitted by Dr David Juste and two colleagues\, Benno van Dalen and Dag Nikolaus Hasse. They heard last month that it has been granted funding for 25 years\, with all funds and positions as requested\, including five full-time research scholars. \nThe lab should be of interest to medievalists\, historians of science\, cartographic historians\, astronomers\, Classicists\, mathematicians\, and historians of science. It is held in connexion with the 4th International Conference on the Science of Computus\, which will be taking place in the Moore Institute\, 13-15 July. The lab is presented by CAMPS in conjunction with the PRTLI 4-funded ‘Foundations of Irish Culture’ project. \nDr Juste describes the project as follows: \nClaudius Ptolemy (c. 100-170 AD) was one of the most important scientific figures in the ancient world\, and one of the most influential scientists of all time. While he was also the author of treatises on geography\, optics and harmonics\, his fame primarily stems from two works on the science of the stars: (1) the (astronomical) ‘Almagest’\, which provides comprehensive mathematical models explaining all celestial movements in a geocentric universe; and (2) the (astrological) ‘Tetrabiblos’\, which provides the first systematic account of the relationships between the celestial and terrestrial worlds\, as well as a philosophical justification for the practice of astrology. \nThe ‘Almagest’ and the ‘Tetrabiblos’ remained the fundamental texts on the science of the stars for some 1\,500 years. Both were translated several times into Arabic and Latin\, and were heavily commented upon\, glossed\, discussed\, and also criticised and improved upon\, in the Islamic world and in Christian Europe. Until the 17th century\, no important work on either astronomy or astrology was written without reference to Ptolemy. \nFurther information from the organiser:  \nProf. DÌÁibhÌ_ ÌÒ CRÌÒIN̍N\, \nDepartment of History\, \nNational University of Ireland\, Galway \nTel.: (+353-91) 492697 \nFax: (+353-91) 494556
