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

SUMMARY:Moore Institute Workshop 2011-12: Wise Practices\, Imagination and the Toleration of Diversity
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 16th June \nDescription of Workshop  \nThe idea of wisdom is currently attracting renewed attention as a source of innovative ideas and practices for social organisation. This workshop addresses two deficits in the associated debates\, accentuating contributions derived from observed ‰Û÷wise‰۪ practices in the West of Ireland. Wisdom is generally regarded as a form of reasoning which responds to pressing life-problems without clear solutions in either expert or everyday knowledge. This workshop explores a) how such forms of reasoning can operate under conditions of social and intellectual diversity; b) the role of imagination in envisaging novel solutions.  \nSince Socrates‰۪ time\, commentators on wisdom have commended slowness to rush to judgement\, even in dilemmas which initially seem clear. Contemporary work on wisdom foregrounds tolerance and a capacity to understand how others see the world differently from oneself\, while remaining committed to one‰۪s own core values. However\, closer studies of what people really mean when they believe they are being tolerant show strong tendencies to expect others to converge with their own ideas under more apposite temporal or social circumstances.  \nPapers at the workshop respond to this observation and to evidence collected in Galway and Connemara\, analysing selected local practices as effecting forms of social wisdom which illustrate more genuine forms of tolerance. It also draws on empirical and theoretical research into confronting cultural diversity both in Galway City and in Canada. Finally\, we focus on the role in both wisdom and tolerance of uses of the imagination in comprehending other (world-)views\, explored in historical travel literature and the sociology of tourism\, and to the roles in ‰Û÷wise‰۪ discourse of Irish proverbs\, triads and epigrams.

SUMMARY:Destroying the 'silver linings':  The American media and the Vietnam War\, 1968-71 - With guest speaker Gavin Wilk\, University of Limerick
DESCRIPTION:The Galway American Studies Forum Presents… \nDestroying the ‰Û÷silver linings’:  The American media and the Vietnam War\, 1968-71 \nWith guest speaker Gavin Wilk\, University of Limerick  \nTuesday\, 5th June\, 12.30 – 2pm \nin \nThe Moore Institute Seminar Room \nEveryone Welcome. \nAbstract: This paper will demonstrate through relevant examples how the American media\, from the 1968 Tet Offensive to the publication of the Pentagon Papers in 1971\, offered a subjective and unfiltered view of the Vietnam War to the American public. During this period\, the American media abandoned a previously close connection with the military and government and instead moved independently through various mediums to denounce the Vietnam War. This dramatic period transformed the way American journalists cover conflicts and also significantly altered the relationship between the American media\, government and military officials. \nAbout Gavin Wilk: A Visiting Lecturer in History at the University of Limerick\, Gavin recently completed a PhD in History and was an IRCHSS Postgraduate Scholar from 2008-11. His thesis examines the militant Irish republican movement in the United States from 1923 to 1939 and focuses on the important role of Irish Republican Army (IRA) veterans in the US-based Irish republican movement. Gavin has completed a number of articles for reference works in American history\, including a recent contribution of fourteen articles to the M.E. Sharpe publication\, America in World History\, an encyclopaedia which presents American history through an international context. \nFor more see http://gasforum.blogspot.com/

With MÌÁirtÌ_n ÌÒ DireÌÁin and SeÌÁn ÌÒ RÌ_ordÌÁin\, she revolutionised the practice of poetry in Irish in the 1940s and 50s and paved the way for a new generation of women poets who emerged in Irish and in English in the 1970s and 80s. A generation before Nuala NÌ_ Dhomhnaill and Eavan Boland\, and in more difficult circumstances\, MÌÁire Mhac an tSaoi gave voice to the intimate and subversive aspects of women’s experience in poems that challenged the moral orthodoxies of the time. \n‰Û÷Although her work and influence is acknowledged by poets and critics alike\,’ according to Louis de Paor\, Director of the Centre for Irish Studies\, ‰Û÷this is the first such event dedicated entirely to her work and includes contributions from some of the finest scholars and critics of poetry in Irish. Given her connection with the University where she was appointed Honorary Professor of Irish Studies in 2004\, and her uncle Monsignor PÌÁdraig de Br̼n\, served with such distinction as president\, we are delighted to recognise her unique contribution to Irish writing.’ \nMÌÁire Mhac an tSaoi’s autobiography The Same Age as the State\, published in 2003\, was described by Seamus Heaney as ‰Û÷thrilling and exemplary’ and a bilingual selection of her poems An ParÌ_iste MÌ_or̼ilteach/The Miraculous Parish was launched by Fiach Mac Conghail\, Director of the Abbey Theatre\, at a gala event in Dublin Castle in November 2011.Invited speakers to the NUI Galway symposium include Mich̩al Mac Craith\, Margaret Mac Curtain\, MÌÁire NÌ_ AnnrachÌÁin\, MÌÁirÌ_n Nic Eoin\, CaoimhÌ_n Mac Giolla L̩ith\, RÌ_Ì_na NÌ_ Fhrighil\, Eil̩an NÌ_ ChuilleanÌÁin and Patricia Coughlan\, and the proceedings will be recorded by RTÌä radio for broadcast later in the year.Admission to all sessions is free and everyone is welcome to attend.Sa Seomra SeimineÌÁir in Institi̼id de MÌ_rdha\, OÌä\, Gaillimh a reachtÌÁlfar na seisi̼in ar fad.MÌ_or̼ilt an pharÌ_iste: comhdhÌÁil lae ar fhilÌ_ocht MhÌÁire Mhac an tSaoiD̩ C̩adaoin 23 Bealtaine 2012Ionad an L̩inn Ìäireannaigh\, Ollscoil na hÌäireann\, Gaillimh \n9.00-10.15rn ‰Û÷The same age as the state ach nÌ_ mÌ_r an fhilÌ_ocht chomh maith’\, An tOllamh MicheÌÁl Mac Crait (ColÌÁiste San Isidore) \n‰Û÷MÌÁire Mhac an tSaoi: idir dhÌÁ fheimineachas’\, An tOllamh Margaret Mac Curtain (UCD) \n10.15-11.30rn ‘”V̩nus toute enti̬re\, ÌÊ sa proie attach̩e . . .”: an grÌÁ agus an tsaoirse i bhfilÌ_ocht MhÌÁire Mhac a’ tSaoi’\, An tOllamh MÌÁire NÌ_ AnnrachÌÁin (UCD) \n‰Û÷An guth mÌÁthartha i bhfilÌ_ocht MhÌÁire Mhac an tSaoi’\, An tOllamh MÌÁirÌ_n Nic Eoin (ColÌÁiste PhÌÁdraig\, Droim Conrach) \n11.30-11.45 Caif̩ \n11.45-1.00in ‰Û÷”Ceann Bliana” agus Eile’\, An Dr CaoimhÌ_n Mac Giolla L̩ith (UCD) \n‘CÌ_iri̼ na cuimhne i saothar MhÌÁire Mhac a’ tSaoi’\, An Dr RÌ_Ì_na NÌ_ Fhrighil (ColÌÁiste PhÌÁdraig\, Droim Conrach) \n1.00-2.00in LÌ_n \n2.00 -3.15in An tOllamh Eil̩an NÌ_ ChuilleanÌÁin (TCD) \n‰Û÷”Aibigh\, a mhian\, i ndiamhaireacht na gile”: na mianta collaÌ_ i saothar Mhaire Mhac an tSaoi’\, An tOllamh Patricia Coughlan (UCC) \n3.30-4.30in Clabhs̼r

SUMMARY:Gender and Academic Work
DESCRIPTION:Gender and Academic Work\n24th April 2012Venue: NUI Galway Moore Institute Seminar Room1-5pmThe experiences of women in academic work have long been a source of debate.Research over the previous thirty years has shown us that\, for example\, aspects of workplace culture in higher education organizations effectively constrain women’s career advancement. Issues including homophily and related difficulties in findinghelpful mentors and role models\, along with unintended exclusion from informal social groups. These act to hamper women’s participation in important networks. Moreover\, commentators have argued that academia itself is founded on inherentlypatriarchical systems and structures\, and that these emerge in the gendering of the division of labour in relation to teaching\, research and administrative roles\, along with working practices that present obstacles to fulfilling familial responsibilities and caring roles. In contrast to this\, for others\, universities remain ‰Û÷gender blind’\, with career advancement and participation ostensibly open to all. In this seminar we are fortunate to bring together scholars from Ireland and the UK who will present recent empirical findings and new theoretical insights in this area. \nAll are welcome. Please contact Kate Kenny kate.kenny@nuigalway.ie to reserve a place. \nThe seminar is organized by NUI Galway’s Work Society and Governance cluster\, and the Public Policies and Gender cluster (Gender ARC). \nSchedule\n1.00 WelcomeMarianna Fotaki\, Reader in health policy and organisation studies.Manchester Business School\, University of Manchester.Of women\, gender and inequality in academe: Bringing feminism back to dispel yet another wicked issue \n2.00 Tea and Coffee \n2.30Kelly Coate\, Lecturer in teaching and learning in Higher Education and Vice Dean (Graduate Studies) in the College of Arts\, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies\, NUI Galway.Indicators of esteem: Gender and prestige in academic work \n3.30 Pat O’Connor\, Professor of Sociology and Social Policy\, University of Limerick.Organisational Culture in University Senior Management: A Cross National Perspective \n4.30 Discussion and reflection: Anne Byrne\, Lecturer at School of Political Science and Sociology\, NUI Galway. \n5.00 Close \nPlease join us for an informal dinner after the workshop \nPAPER ABSTRACTS:Of women\, gender and inequality in academe: Bringing feminism back to dispel yet another wicked issueMarianna FotakiWomen’s underrepresentation in senior ranks across academic disciplines is welldocumented. Yet\, the majority of analyses of women’s discrimination in academiacontinue to focus on the institutionally-oriented approaches\, and the importance ofstructural barriers of patriarchy. This leaves the issue of subjectivity untheorised andimpedes our understanding of gendered academic institutions at work. The aim of thisarticle is to apply psychosocial approaches enabling us to think differently about thesocially situated subject. First\, I draw on conceptions of women’s ‰Û÷otherness’ viaIrigaray and Kristeva\, and then turn to Butler’s (1997) idea of subject-ion\, which issustained and reproduced as an instrument of the subject becomingness and theprecondition for her agency. Second\, I apply the critique of post-feminism byMcRobbie (2009)\, with an intention to rehabilitate the demands of feminism aspertinent to dispelling the logic of inequality and subordination of women inacademia as yet another ‰Û÷wicked issue’. The findings of a study looking into theexperiences of women in management and business schools in England are thendiscussed in light of the proposed theory. \nIndicators of esteem: Gender and prestige in academic workKelly CoateThis paper draws on recent work on the prestige economy in relation to academicmotivation by developing a gendered notion of prestige. Blackmore and Kandiko(2011) have proposed a framework for interpreting aspects of academic work whichmotivate academics to achieve success. Aside from financial gain\, they propose thatacademics are motivated by the work itself and factors related to prestige. Given thatwomen are less well represented at senior levels in academia\, there is a question as towhether there are gendered aspects to these motivational factors. Far from suggestingthat women are less motivated than men\, I will use a feminist materialist analysis toargue that women\, for a number of socio-cultural reasons\, find it harder to enter theprestige economy in order to gain the indicators of esteem that they can trade forfurther advancement to their careers. Data from a recent survey of academics atNUIG on career progression will be used to illustrate how the prestige economyoperates to the advantages of those who have access to the masculine\, homosocialculture within this context. \nOrganisational Culture in University Senior Management: A Cross National PerspectivePat O’ConnorOrganisational culture is typically presented as meritocratic in universities. In thatcontext the under-representation of women in university senior management can beseen as reflecting that absence of merit. It will be suggested that such a conclusionignores the gendering of definitions of merit in academia and the importance of socialcapital in accessing such positions. Using data collected in a cross national study\, anddrawing on Sinclair’s (1998) analytical model\, the paper will present a typologyinvolving denial; identification of women as ‘the problem’; incremental adjustmentand commitment to a new culture. It will be suggested that\, using this model\, it ispossible to position the eight countries in the cross national study (i.e. Australia; NewZealand; Portugal; UK; Turkey; South Africa; Sweden and Ireland). The paper willconclude by suggesting that the organisational culture of Irish universities at seniormanagement level is not unrelated to the disinterest of the state in this issue. Thewider implications of the study for the perpetuation of gender as a social structure(Reisman\, 2004)\, with a particular focus on Ireland will be briefly discussed. \nThe event is supported by the Institute for Business\, Social Sciences and Public Policy at NUIGalway\, and

SUMMARY:Beyond the Island: Transnational Approaches to History
DESCRIPTION:Beyond the Island: Transnational Approaches to History \nThe Moore Institute Seminar Room \nApril 20th to 21st\, 2011 \nThis interdisciplinary conference brings together scholars of History\, Political Science\, Law and English to discuss the merits and limitations of transnational and global studies. In recent years\, scholars have increasingly recognized the limitations of the nation-state as a framework of analyses and as a result transnational and global approaches have moved to the top of research agendas across many countries. At the same time\, explorations in this area have been largely overlooked in Irish universities. This conference will debate the merits of transnational vistas for understanding the important themes of diaspora\, nationalism\, political violence\, and human rights in the Irish past and present\, and will compare how transnational approaches move beyond or differ from established fields such as the Atlantic world\, imperial studies\, world history\, comparative studies\, and so on. The conference papers cover a broad geographical scope and stretch across a long chronology\, from late-medieval to contemporary history. Guest speakers will include\, among others\, Kevin Kenny (Boston College)\, Kiran Patel (Maastricht)\, Timothy Meagher (CUA\, Washington)\, Carl Levy (Goldsmiths\, London) and Irene Bueno (Leiden).
