SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH: White Cottage\, White House Irish American Masculinities in Classical Hollywood Cinema
DESCRIPTION:BOOK LAUNCH \nWhite Cottage\, White House Irish American Masculinities in Classical Hollywood Cinema \nBy Tony Tracy \nSpeaker: Dr Conn Holohan \n  \n\n\n\nDescription \n\nWhite Cottage\, White House examines how Classical Hollywood cinema developed and deployed Irish American masculinities to negotiate\, consolidate\, and reinforce hegemonic whiteness in midcentury America. Largely confined to discriminatory stereotypes during the silent era\, Irish American male characters emerge as a favored identity with the introduction of sound\, positioned in a variety of roles as mediators between the marginal and mainstream. The book argues that such characters function to express hegemonic whiteness as ethnicity\, a socio-racial framing that kept immigrant origins and normative American values in productive tension. It traces key Irish American male types—the gangster\, the priest\, the cop\, the sports hero\, and the returning immigrant—who navigated these tensions in maintenance of an ethnic whiteness that was nonetheless “at home” in America\, transforming from James Cagney’s “public enemy” to John Wayne’s “quiet man” in the process. Whether as figures of Depression-era social disruption\, avatars of presidential patriarchy and national manhood\, or allegories of postwar white flight and the nuclear family\, Irish American masculinities occupied a distinctive and unrivaled visibility and role in popular American film. \n\n\nTony Tracy is Assistant Professor of Film and Media Studies at the Huston School of Film & Digital Media\, University of Galway. His previous books include Masculinity and Irish Popular Culture: Tiger’s Tales (coedited with Conn Holohan) and Historical Dictionary of Irish Cinema (coedited with Roddy Flynn). \nRegistration\nPlease register at: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/541243974297 \nIt would be great to see you!

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: Bogs and Barracks: Stringy Sovereignty and the Eighteenth-Century Irish State 
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Seminar  \nDr Patrick Walsh  \n(Trinity College Dublin) \nBogs and Barracks:  \nStringy Sovereignty and the Eighteenth-Century Irish State \n  \nAbstract \nBeginning in a bog in west Cork this paper is about the fragmented processes of colonial state formation in eighteenth-century Ireland. The story I want to tell is told from the fragmented edges of the state rather than from the centre\, from isolated peninsulas on Ireland’s Atlantic edge\, from boggy mountainsides in upland regions and from villages and communities often bypassed in stories of modernisation and centralisation. It deliberately decentres the state to explore the impact of the institutions of the fiscal-military state in Ireland at its outer limits. In doing so I am motivated by a desire to shift away from a temptation to replicate a metropolitan English historiographical model onto different Irish circumstances. Instead\, this paper while cognisant of the development of the fiscal and especially military apparatuses of the Irish colonial state takes its inspiration from David Gange’s brilliantly suggestive Fragmented Atlantic Edge to think about how we might write about state formation from the outside in. Secondly it draws on legal historian Lauren Benton’s concept of ‘stringy sovereignty’ with its emphasis on the elasticity of state power in more remote and upland regions and the consequent need to pay attention to the ways that this shaped colonial and state practice to consider anew the ways in which the eighteenth-century state operated in Ireland.  \nBiography \nDr Patrick Walsh is assistant professor of eighteenth-century history at Trinity College Dublin\, where he is also co-PI of the Trinity’s Colonial Legacies project. His previous books include The Making of the Irish Protestant Ascendancy: The Life of William Conolly (2010) and the South Sea Bubble and Ireland\, Money\, Banking and Investment\, 1691-1721 (2014) as well as edited collections on the British and Irish Fiscal States (2016) and Irish Taxation\, Politics and Protest\, 1662-2016 (2019).  \nRegistration\nThis is a hybrid event\, organised in collaboration with the Centre for Antique\, Medieval and Pre-Modern Studies (CAMPS). The paper will be delivered\, in-person\, in Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building\, University of Galway and streamed simultaneously on Zoom: https://nuigalway-ie.zoom.us/j/91402861252.  \nTo attend via Zoom\, please register at: https://forms.office.com/e/k4w5Jn9pUC. \nThis talk will also be preceded by a social event – join us from 3.30pm for tea\, coffee\, snacks\, and a mid-semester chat. A big thank you to CAMPS for their support. \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Seminar series\, in collaboration with the Centre for Antique\, Medieval and Pre-Modern Studies.

SUMMARY:Translation amid Uncertainty: Online Activist Subtitling of Counter-ISIS Stories
DESCRIPTION:“Translation amid Uncertainty: Online Activist Subtitling of Counter-ISIS Stories” \n  \nAbstract: \nIn our contemporary world\, different moments of uncertainty are created out of conflicts\, revolutions or crises\, eliminating our conventional sense of territory. Though these moments are full of hardships and sufferings\, they carry with them off-line and on-line innovative cultural productions that contest oppressive and conventional voices. Activist translation/subtitling takes part in re-telling these marginal experiences and knowledge across the globe in pursue of solidarity. The post-Arab Spring period has witnessed that kind of cultural activity where translation/subtitling was key in expressing alternative voices. A case of such is activist subtitling of counter-jihadist discourse to fight the current of global jihadism that re-emerged in a new face: the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) in 2014. Two Youtube channels (Daya alTaseh and The Bigh daddy Show) produced videos mocking ISIS in Arabic subtitled in English. The subtitling of both video productions is scrutinized to explore how it retells their distinct counter-ISIS stories.

SUMMARY:Irish Studies' Seminar Series: Drone Imagery in Irish Visual Culture: Evoking a Nostalgic Past amidst the Contemporary Future
DESCRIPTION:Irish Studies’ Seminar Series \nDrone Imagery in Irish Visual Culture: Evoking a Nostalgic Past amidst the Contemporary Future  \nDr Jeannine Kraft\, Columbus College of Art & Design \n  \nDrone imagery has played a key role in the twenty-first century in the framing and dissemination of images of the Irish landscape. The internet has provided a broad global dissemination of images that are not just static visualizations\, but also include interactive video and three-dimensional images\, thereby re-circulating notions of place\, identity\, and geography. New tools used by television and tourist campaigns include drone photography and video. Both have been used to reinforce the emptied-out “wild” nostalgic landscapes of Ireland through the means of sheer physical distance\, rendering any existing modernity framed out of the view. It is a repeated trope of the past\, but one now further enhanced and spectacularized by new technology. In the 2007-10 Irish show Single-Handed\, set in Connemara in the West of Ireland\, the main character’s mother highlights the contrast between the nostalgic vision of past and present Ireland to its historic and contemporary realities: “There’s a tragedy here is what I’m saying. People come here now to look at the view. Don’t think they know what it is they are seeing.” This talk will examine how drone imagery engenders the spectacularization of the landscape\, a trope frequently encountered in the envisioning of Ireland. \nDr. Jeannine Kraft is Professor\, and Chair of the History of Art & Visual Culture department at Columbus College of Art & Design (Columbus\, Ohio). She completed her PhD\, Landscape Legacies: The Renegotiation of the Irish West in Contemporary Visual Culture\, with the Centre for Irish Studies at the National University of Ireland Galway\, now University of Galway\, in 2019. She has received CCAD Faculty Development Grants (2016-22) as well as the Griffith Faculty Excellence Award in 2016. She has presented her research nationally and internationally. Her work focuses on the legacy of the representation of Ireland in contemporary Irish visual culture and she is currently teaching a seminar class on landscape in Ireland and how contemporary artists negotiate the inherited legacies of place. \nPlease note that this seminar will take place on zoom.

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: 'If we were men\, they’d find other jobs for us’: Continuity announcers and female presenters at R/TÉ 1962-73
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Seminar \nDr Morgan Wait \n(Independent Scholar) \n‘If we were men\, they’d find other jobs for us’: \nContinuity announcers and female presenters at R/TÉ 1962-73 \n  \nAbstract \nThis paper explores the experiences of continuity announcers and female presenters on Radio/Telefís Éireann in the first decade of the Irish station. It argues that women who appeared on screen for the Irish broadcaster were subject to restrictive standards which worked to reinforce a particular gendered ideology at the station which portrayed women as middle class housewives relegated to the domestic sphere. To that end\, it focuses on three case studies. It looks first\, at Valerie McGovern\, the hostess of a women’s programme on the network in the mid-1960s. It then discusses Monica Sheridan\, a celebrity chef on the station\, and then finally looks at the case of the continuity announcers. Utilising press sources\, oral history\, and archival material\, the paper illuminates the conditions of women who worked at the Irish station and examines their representation on screen. \nBiography \nDr Morgan Wait is a television historian who recently completed her PhD at Trinity College Dublin on the subject of women and television in Ireland in the 1960s. She has published an article entitled ‘Writing the History of Women’s Programming at Telifís Éireann: A Case Study of Home for Tea in Alphaville’: Journal of Film and Screen Media. She has also published a number of non-peer reviewed articles in outlets such as RTÉ Brainstorm and Critical Studies in Television online. She holds an M.Phil in Modern Irish History from Trinity and a BA in History from Salisbury University. \nRegistration\nThis is a hybrid event. The paper will be delivered\, in-person\, in Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building\, University of Galway and streamed simultaneously on Zoom: https://nuigalway-ie.zoom.us/j/99270427210. \nTo attend via Zoom\, please register at: https://forms.office.com/e/9B511BqCBK \nJoin us for a social gathering with tea\, coffee & snacks from 3.30pm. Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building. \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Seminar series\, in collaboration with the School of Political Science & Sociology Equality\, Diversity and Inclusion Committee.

SUMMARY:Open Scholarship Café – Open Science and Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:Open Scholarship Café – Open Science and Social Justice\nOpen Scholarship / Open Science has many drivers and “schools of thought” about its purpose. This Open Scholarship Café will not look at how to open up the research process\, i.e. through the publication of data\, methods or publications\, but will look at Open Scholarship as a social movement. To look at why and how Open Scholarship interacts with social change\, we are glad to have three speakers who will shed light on this topic. \nOpen Scholarship Cafés are organised by the Library of the University of Galway and the Open Scholarship Community Galway. For this Café we have partnered with MÓR – Maynooth Open Research who will co-host the session. \nThis Open Scholarship Café will be online on Zoom. You are all very welcome to register! See below details of speakers and their talks. \nAgenda\n\nCiara Egan – Synergies between Open Scholarship and social justice for improving research\nSarahanne Field – Who gets a place at the Open Science table? Problems and suggestions for improvement\nMonica Gonzalez-Marquez – What if we designed and practiced Open Science with our great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandchildren in mind?\n\n\nSpeakers\n \nCiara Egan – Synergies between open scholarship and social justice for improving research.\nSummary \nOpen Scholarship has become a major focus in research and funding policy both nationally and internationally\, with a lot of focus on how it may help research integrity and combat reproducibility issues across various fields. Recently there has been a growing interest on the intersection between open scholarship and social justice\, in terms of shared values and synergies. This talk will serve as an introduction to the ways in which open scholarship can be used to foster better research environments and dismantle barriers to research\, focusing on recent work in the area from the FORRT project and other scholars. \nSpeaker bio: \nDr Ciara Egan is a lecturer in clinical neuroscience at University of Galway. Prior to her appointment\, she completed her PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience at Bangor University\, and following this worked as a research assistant at the University of Oxford studying cerebral asymmetries. Her research interests include cognitive neuroscience (predominantly using EEG\, event-related potentials and pupil dilation)\, and open scholarship. She is a proponent of preregistration and open & reproducible code/experiments\, and of embedding these practices (and the theory behind them) into her teaching and supervision at all levels. You can follow Ciara on Twitter. \n\n \nSarahanne Field – Who gets a place at the open science table? Problems and suggestions for improvement\nSummary: \nThe science reform movement is promising in a lot of ways and in the past decade\, it has been gathering momentum as more people join the effort to improve scientific practice\, inference\, and dissemination. However\, so much emphasis is placed on tools and methodology\, which raises the question of what work is being done (or should be done) to improve diversity and inclusion in the movement? Does the science reform movement also seek to change systemic issues of sexism and racism\, or are these shortcomings translated into the movement from the traditional scientific community that the movement emerges from without critical engagement from reformers? This talk aims to raise some important points for reform activists to consider\, surrounding whose voices are heard in the reform movement\, and how parts of the movement can improve practices and perspectives on who is allowed a place at the table\, and ultimately\, who is heard. \nSpeaker bio: My research focuses on scientific reform: its community\, culture\, and practices. My work with CWTS involves determining what constitutes responsible research practice across disciplines and establishing a community of practice revolving around those practices. My research shows that despite its shared enterprise\, scientific reform is a heterogenous\, diverse body of sub-communities\, who each contribute to the enterprise in their own unique way. Alongside this\, I am passionate about introducing reflexivity to quantitative science practice\, working out how to best select a replication target\, and interrogating scientific reform practices and anticipating their downstream consequences. I use mixed\, sometimes digital methods to explore the scientific problems I find interesting. I am an Australian native\, and live in the Netherlands. I am the mother of two small children and am a distance runner (my race of choice is the half-marathon\, though you can’t beat a night-time 10k!). \nYou can follow Sarahanne on Mastodon \n\n \nMonica Gonzalez-Marquez – What if we designed and practiced Open Science with our great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandchildren in mind?\nSummary: Open Science is a heterogeneous movement (Field\, 2022). This is undoubtedly one of its strengths. People work on different aspects of the work that needs to be done\, in ways that best make sense for them and their communities. We are fortunate to now see the beginnings of maturity in our movement. With that maturity comes the need to understand how open science is changing scientific practice\, as well as a need for a collective vision of where these changes will culminate. My talk will introduce The Heliocentric Model of Open Science as a product of our collective aspirations for a science that serves everyone and as a model of what our documentation infrastructure should look like to achieve those goals. \nSpeaker bio: I work in Metascience and Open Science. Her projects include developing evidence-based pedagogy to read scientific journal articles\, pedagogy to teach research methods in collaborative workshop settings\, and most recently collaborative theory-building for Open Science as The Heliocentric Model of (Open) Science. My background is in Cognitive Science with a focus on Cognitive Linguistics\, Psycholinguistics and Philosophy of Science. I currently work as Open Science Manager at Forschungszentrum Jülich where my focus is on improving scientific documentation to facilitate use by current and future researchers. \nYou can follow Monica on Mastodon. \nRegistration\nRegistration is required. \nPlease register at: https://universityofgalway.libcal.com/event/3998130

SUMMARY:CAMPS LAB: 'More than Marginal: Knowledge and Learning in Ancient Greek Scholia'
DESCRIPTION:CAMPS Lab \n‘More than Marginal: Knowledge and Learning in Ancient Greek Scholia’ \nLisa Doyle ( Classics\, TCD) \n  \nAbstract:  \nAncient Greek scholia (commentary notes found in the margins of Medieval manuscripts) have traditionally been overlooked by modern scholars\, yet they contain a wealth of knowledge relating to mythology\, local histories\, geography\, and the reception of authors within antiquity. Often\, the language and coherent format of the scholia bear resemblances to the commentaries from which they derive. In this talk\, Lisa Doyle will be exploring scholarly debates concerning geographical knowledge (such as Odyseuss’ homeward route from Troy)\, drawing on examples from the scholia on the Greek epic poems by Homer and the 3rd century BCE epic Argonautica by Apollonius of Rhodes. \nThis is a hybrid event. The paper will be delivered\, in-person\, in Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building\, University of Galway and streamed simultaneously on Zoom. \nTo receive a Zoom link for this event\, please contact: \nDr Grace Attwood g.attwood1@universityofgalway.ie or \nDr Sarah Corrigan sarah.corrigan@universityofgalway.ie

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: Irish Language Policy\, 1922-2022: The Role of Broadcasting in Language Revitalisation
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Seminar \nDr John Walsh  \n(University of Galway) \nIrish Language Policy\, 1922-2022: The Role of Broadcasting in Language Revitalisation  \n  \nAbstract \nIn this seminar\, I will focus on the development of Irish language policy since the foundation of the state in 1922. Although a key part of government policy over the past century\, the Irish language was barely discussed during the Decade of Centenaries programme or in public or academic discourse around the commemorations. I will begin by outlining concepts of language policy and language planning as understood in other minority language settings and apply them to the Irish context. I will then summarise salient aspects of policy as related to speakers of Irish\, the Gaeltacht\, education\, legislation and broadcasting. The main part of the seminar will consist of a case-study of broadcasting as a central plank of Irish language policy\, with a particular focus on community media. I will conclude by critically reviewing Irish language policy since independence and identify key themes for the next century.  \nBiography \nDr John Walsh is an Associate Professor of Irish in the School of Languages\, Literatures and Cultures. His latest monograph One Hundred Years of Irish Language Policy\, 1922-2022 was published last year by Peter Lang. John’s research interests span the sociolinguistics of Irish\, language policy\, minority language media and language revitalisation. He is also currently serving as Vice-Dean (Equality\, Diversity\, Inclusion and People) in the College of Arts\, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies.  \nRegistration\nThis is a hybrid event. The paper will be delivered\, in-person\, in Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building\, University of Galway and streamed simultaneously on Zoom: https://nuigalway-ie.zoom.us/j/96087362381 .  \nTo attend via Zoom\, please register at: https://forms.office.com/e/DqEVWr7E4r \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Seminar series.

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: Rebuilding a Ruptured Tradition:  Catholic Architecture in Ireland\, 1780-1829
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Seminar \nDr Niamh NicGhabhann  \n(University of Limerick) \nRebuilding a Ruptured Tradition: Catholic Architecture in Ireland\, 1780-1829  \n  \nAbstract\nBy the end of the nineteenth century\, Catholic churches and cathedrals in Ireland typically occupied commanding positions across urban and rural landscapes. With their towering spires and glittering interiors\, they were powerful monuments to ideas of triumph over past adversity and pointed to an expansive\, confident future for the Irish Catholic community. While these church and cathedral buildings evoked ideas of medieval grandeur\, and expressed links to a venerable Catholic architectural tradition\, they were the culmination of a century of architectural experimentation. This talk examines the first chapter of this period of growth and development\, charting the varied approaches taken by different architects\, patrons\, and communities between 1780 and 1829. It will consider the impact of specific political\, spatial\, and economic circumstances on the way that chapel and church buildings were developed\, highlighting the extraordinary diversity of this period of experimentation. In many ways\, the buildings produced across the country\, whether new builds\, renovations of smaller existing structure\, or reworkings of medieval sites\, reflect the attempts to forge a Catholic architectural identity in the context of a ruptured tradition.  \nBiography  \nDr Niamh NicGhabhann lectures in history at the University of Limerick. Her research focuses on Irish cultural history\, with a particular emphasis on art\, architecture\, and antiquarian cultures. Medieval Ecclesiastical Buildings in Ireland\, 1789-1915: Building on the Past was published in 2015 by Four Courts Press\, and her current book project examines Catholic architecture in Ireland from the late 18th to the early 20th century.  \nRegistration\nThis is a hybrid event. The paper will be delivered\, in-person\, in Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building\, University of Galway and streamed simultaneously on Zoom: https://nuigalway-ie.zoom.us/j/96357887284. \nTo attend via Zoom\, please register at: https://forms.office.com/e/XXefJyvXCt \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Seminar series.

DESCRIPTION:Irish Studies Seminar Series\, Semester 2\, 2022-23 \n‘Weighing the Evidence: manuscript versus local history & folklore sources for the topographic aspects of Táin Bó Cúailnge’ \nGuest Speaker: Paul Gosling\, Atlantic Technological University \nGuest Respondent: Professor Louis de Paor\, Centre for Irish Studies\, School of Geography\, Archaeology and Irish Studies\, University of Galway \n  \nThe famous early medieval story\, Táin Bó Cúailnge (cattle-raid of Cooley) is replete with placenames\, many of them invoked to identify and explain locations where Queen Medb’s forces camped\, fought or simply passed through on their quest to capture the Brown Bull of Cooley. In studying same\, scholars have relied almost exclusively on the text versions of the story as preserved in twelfth century manuscripts such as Book of the Dun Cow and the Book of Leinster. However\, local history and folkloric sources also contain a significant amount of information relating to the movement of Queen Medb\, Cúchulainn and the Ulster forces. \nThis illustrated seminar will review the folk and local history evidence and asses its value as a source for the topographic aspects of the Táin. \nBiography: \nPaul Gosling is an archaeologist and a member of the Institute of Archaeologists of Ireland. He lectured on built heritage in the Department of Heritage and Tourism at the Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology (now Atlantic Technological University) from 1997 to 2019. His research interests are focused on archaeological survey and his published work includes surveys of the field monuments of Co. Galway\, and Clare Island in Co. Mayo\, as well as topographic analyses of several medieval towns including Dundalk (1991)\, Tuam (1995\, 2013) and Mullingar (2022). He is currently researching the placename and route aspects of the great medieval epic\, Táin Bó Cúailnge (the cattle raid of Cooley). His recent publications on same include ‘The Route of Táin Bó Cúailnge Revisited’ in Emania 22 (2014)\, and a suite of Archaeology Ireland Heritage Guides entitled ‘The Route of Táin Bó Cúailnge’: Co. Louth (2015)\, Cos Roscommon and Longford (2016) and Cos Westmeath and Meath (2019). \nPicture: Line-drawing\, ‘Maev’s second meeting with Fergus’ by Seaghán Mac Cathmhaoil (Joseph Campbell).

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: ‘For Irish homosexuals the border question has little or no meaning – at least as far as their homosexuality is concerned’: The rise of the Irish Gay Rights Movement\, 1973-1974
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Seminar \nDr Patrick McDonagh \n(Independent Scholar)\n‘For Irish homosexuals the border question has little or no meaning  \n– at least as far as their homosexuality is concerned’:  \nThe rise of the Irish Gay Rights Movement\, 1973-1974 \n  \nAbstract\nIn a November 1973 issue of the British based gay newspaper\, Gay News\, an article appeared with the title ‘Irish Gay Beginnings: Full Report on First Ever Irish Gay Conference’. The conference that the article was referring to had taken place at the New University of Ulster in Coleraine and had been organised by the Sexual Reform Movement. At the end of the conference a resolution was passed which committed those present to work in the future for the establishment of human rights for the sexually oppressed in society and to forge links with groups active in advancing gay rights\, both domestically and internationally. Such was the novelty of this statement at the time\, that the Irish Independent carried a report three days later in which Dr. Austin Darragh\, director of the UCD Psycho-Endocrine Centre\, warned the Irish government against legalising homosexuality\, warning that to ‘legalise it may be legalising a disease and may stop researchers like us proceeding with our attempts to plum the causes and possible treatment for the condition.’ \nDespite the significance of this conference very little attention has been given to it in wider Irish LGBT+ history. On the 50th anniversary of this conference\, this paper will look back at this significant moment in Irish LGBT+ history and the impact it had at the time. In doing so\, this paper will highlight the extent to which the rise of a gay rights movement in Ireland was influenced and supported by British and Scottish based organisations as well as the role student organisations and universities played in creating a space where a focus on the issue of gay rights could take place in the early 1970s in Ireland. Finally\, the paper will also demonstrate the extent to which the gay rights movement in Ireland emerged due to the efforts of activists both north and south of the border. \nBiography \nDr. Patrick McDonagh is an independent scholar who obtained his PhD in History from the European University Institute\, Florence\, in 2019. His first book\, Gay and Lesbian Activism in the Republic of Ireland 1973-93\, was published in 2021 by Bloomsbury Academic and received an honorable mention in the Donald Murphy Prize category for distinguished first book at the 2022 American Conference for Irish Studies. He has published articles in the Journal of the History of Sexuality and the Journal of Irish Economic and Social History. He has also contributed chapters to two academic books: From Sodomy Laws to Same-Sex Marriage: International Perspectives since 1789 [eds. Sean Brady and Mark Seymour] (Bloomsbury\, 2019) and Queer Youth Histories [ed. Daniel Marshall] (Palgrave Macmillan\, 2022). In 2020 he was the guest editor of a special edition of Studi Irlandesi: A Journal of Irish Studies which focused on ‘Minorities in/and Ireland’. \nRegistration\nThis talk will be delivered online\, via Zoom.

SUMMARY:The School of Political Science and Sociology research seminar ‘External and Internal Learning Processes of IRA Prisoners’
DESCRIPTION:The School of Political Science and Sociology invite you to a research seminar with: \n Dr. Dieter Reinisch \n‘External and Internal Learning Processes of IRA Prisoners’ \nJanuary 19th\, 2023 \n1-2pm \nAS203 River Room\, Arts Science Building\, \nUniversity of Galway \nAll Welcome! \n  \nAbstract: Western European prisons have been described as spaces of radicalisation towards political violence and terrorism. Contrary\, Provisional IRA in the 1980s and 1990s played a crucial part in supporting the Northern Irish peace process. Moreover\, Provisional Irish republican prisoners held in the high-security prisons on both sides of the Irish border had a decisive role in shaping the politics of the political party Sinn Féin and winning support for the emerging peace process. In this paper\, I will present a theoretical framework to analyse the learning processes of politically-motivated violent prisoners and how political prisoners can shape political developments outside the prison walls. To do so\, I will use the Northern Ireland Troubles as a case study. \nThe paper presents empirical data and a theoretical framework to analyse politically-motivated violent prisoners’ internal and external learning processes beyond the Northern Irish Troubles. In so doing\, I demonstrate how the prisons provided an environment for developing critical thinking and how prisoners used this experience to initiate the debates that eventually led to the acceptance of the peace process in Northern Ireland. Furthermore\, I demonstrate how prisoners can shape the politics of political parties aligned with their militant social movements. The paper is based on 34 qualitative\, semi-structured interviews with former Irish republican prisoners and archival material in Dublin\, Belfast\, and Galway. \nBionote: Dieter Reinisch FRHistS FHEA is an Irish Research Council Government of Ireland Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Galway. He recently published “Learning Behind Bars: How IRA Prisoners shaped the Peace Process in Ireland” (University of Toronto Press\, 2022) and “Irish Republican Counterpublic: Armed Struggle and the Construction of a Radical Nationalist Community in Northern Ireland\, 1969-1998” (with Anne Kane\, Routledge\, 2023).

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: The Art of Urban Life: Painting Dublin\, 1886-1949 
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Seminar \nDr Kathryn Milligan  \n(University College Dublin) \nThe Art of Urban Life: Painting Dublin\, 1886-1949 \n  \nAbstract \nA well-established theme in the history of art\, the depiction of the city has persistently adapted its form to reflect the concerns of the time and culture in which it was created. While scholarship on the history of Irish art has emphasised the important role of the rural and seaboard landscape\, the representation of the city was an important strand in fine art produced in Ireland through the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. To date\, however\, the visual representation of the Irish city has be little discussed or considered within the broader field of Irish Studies\, despite the proliferation of texts and articles on the city in literature\, poetry and drama\, and the ever-increasing role of Irish urban history\, whether in terms of political\, social\, or architectural history. Drawing attention to a rich archive of paintings\, sketches and prints created by artists in Ireland through the late nineteenth- and early-twentieth centuries\, this paper will explore the visual representation of Dublin\, demonstrating how depictions of the city were shaped by historical and social change in Ireland. \nBiography \nKathryn Milligan is an art historian specialising in nineteenth and twentieth century Irish art. Her current research interests range from a study of exhibition cultures in nineteenth-century Irish cities to urban painting by Irish artists at home and abroad.  Since finishing her PhD in 2015\, Kathryn has held positions at the National Gallery of Ireland\, the UCD School of Art History and Cultural Policy\, and was the BARS/BAVS Nineteenth-Century Matters Fellow affiliated with the School of Literature and Languages\, University of Surrey\, 2019-20. She is currently based in the Special Collections Unit at UCD Library. Kathryn’s monograph\, Painting Dublin\, 1886 – 1949 was first published by Manchester University Press in 2020\, and in 2021 received an Honorable Mention in the ACIS Michael J Durkan Prize for Books on Language and Culture. \nRegistration\nThis is a hybrid event. The paper will be delivered\, in-person\, in Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building\, University of Galway and streamed simultaneously on Zoom: https://nuigalway-ie.zoom.us/j/95641793838. \nTo attend via Zoom\, please register at: https://forms.office.com/e/xPPchPGSGu \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Seminar series.

SUMMARY:Irish in Italy: Exhibition Launch
DESCRIPTION:Launch of the Irish in Italy Exhibition \nby Prof. Anne O’Connor and Dr Adrian Paterson \nWelcome address by Antonio Bibbò\, Daniel Carey\, and Marco Gioacchini \nThe concept of Ireland emerges at critical moments in Italy during the first half of the twentieth century\, with Irish politics entering national debates and contributing to a better understanding of the specificity of Irish culture and literature in Italy. At the start of the century and until the early 1920s\, Irish literature was primarily identified with the Celtic Revival\, with few minor exceptions. The “Irishness” of writers such as Stoker\, Wilde and Shaw generally passed unnoticed\, while Joyce\, who spent a substantial part of his life in Trieste\, was chiefly seen as a cosmopolitan writer. It was only thanks to a number of passionate scholars\, translators\, historians\, that the Italian public was made more aware of the intricacies of Irish literature and started perceiving it as a separate entity within the system of literatures in English. \nThe exhibition offers a picture of this complex relationship and of the interactions between the literary landscape and the political system which characterised\, and often facilitated\, exchanges between the two nations. Irish in Italy displays several important documents such as letters by Pavese\, Montale\, Yeats\, Linati\, as well as rare first editions of Irish literary works in Italian. \nYou can view the online exhibition at: Irish in Italy
