SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: A Century of Irish Agriculture:  A Policy Driven Sector
DESCRIPTION:Professor Cathal O’Donoghue  \n(University of Galway) \nA Century of Irish Agriculture:  \nA Policy Driven Sector \n  \nAbstract \nIn this paper we have assembled a time-series of agricultural statistics over the past century to describe many of the important trends of what has been an important sector in Ireland over the course of the past century. The paper explores trends in land use trade-offs between tillage and pasture and describes growth in animals numbers\, the substitution between different types of animals. Over the century the Irish agricultural sector has moved from a sector with a high subsistence dimension with up to 40% of output consumed on farms to a modern international exporting sector\, much less reliant on the traditional trading partner the UK. The paper tracks mechanisation of the sector and the huge reduction in labour and significant restructuring over the century. We emphasise the importance of public policy\, not just in relation to price and income supports\, but also importantly in relation to trade and production restrictions. The century perspective highlights some recurring trends where export restrictions have seen resilience and recovery after they are eased. \nIf you have any questions about the seminar\, please contact Dr Kevin O’Sullivan kevin.k.osullivan@universityofgalway.ie.

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: Ecologies of Typhoid and Geographies of Knowledge in 19th Century Ireland
DESCRIPTION:Dr Emily Webster  \n(Durham University) \nEcologies of Typhoid and  Geographies of Knowledge in 19th Century Ireland \n  \nAbstract \nIn 1880\, Charles Cameron\, Medical Officer of Health for the City of Dublin\, was nearly laughed out of a meeting of the British Medical Association for a paper he read entitled “Typhoid from Oysters.” Despite Cameron’s assertion that he had “no doubt whatever that oysters were very frequently the means of communicating enteric fever\,” using his home city of Dublin as a case study\, the connection between the two would not be widely accepted by the British medical community until nearly twenty-five years – and several shellfish-borne typhoid outbreaks – later. Cameron’s observation of this trend decades before it was widely accepted in British medical circles was not\, I argue\, simply a stroke of particular epidemiological genius\, but an observation grounded in the unique ecology of typhoid fever in Dublin. Drawing on a combination of public health records\, geospatial data\, and popular media\, this paper will explore parallel epidemics of typhoid fever in Dublin and Belfast at the end of the nineteenth century that\, through epidemiological investigation\, were traced at least in part to local shellfish populations. It will argue that these epidemics were the result of a confluence of unique factors\, including ecological characteristics like topography\, rainfall\, and river basin ecology; and social and urban environmental characteristics such as housing placement\, water systems\, sewage systems\, class\, industry\, and local dietary practices. Through this confluence of features\, Salmonella enterica typhi found a niche in these major Irish cities. \nRegistration\nThis talk will be delivered online\, via Zoom. Please register here for the link: https://forms.office.com/r/AqUWfutAzq \nThe seminar will also be livestreamed in Room 1001\, Hardiman Research Building (Bridge Seminar Room).

SUMMARY:The School of Political Science and Sociology Research Seminar: ‘BioEconomy and Society’
DESCRIPTION:The School of Political Science and Sociology invite you to a research seminar with: \n  Dr. phil. Alexander I. Stingl\, Mag. Art. \n‘BioEconomy and Society’ \nCairnes Building\, CA110 \nThursday 20th  of October\, 2022  \n1-2pm  \nAll Welcome! \n  \nBio-Economy Works in Ecosystem Services\, Biotechnology\, and Global Political Economy: Elaborating a new field for the social sciences and situating my research program. \nAbout: \nThe Bio-Economy is a recent and extremely powerful policy agenda\, which is\, however\, existing mostly outside of the public consciousness. Originating in the discourse on “ecosystems” but being concretized institutionally and “coined” by European Union bureaucrats\, this discursive formation and transnational policy network has problematic historic roots in a regime of exploitation while it affects the current transformation of the Global Political Economy as a whole. Respectively\, I continually make the case for understanding the Bio-Economy as an emerging field that deserves more attention in the social sciences. In a 45-minute tour de force\, I will sketch the stakes of the Bioeconomy in terms of its effects on ecosystem services\, agro- and biotechnology\, and the Global Political Economy\, while marking important connections to its epistemic origins that it shares with the genealogy of the social sciences. I will\, thereby and in conclusion\, provide an introduction and overview to my currently ongoing and future research program.

SUMMARY:Sport & Exercise Research Group Seminar: Football and Cinema under Francoism - Comparing Visual Motifs to Unveil Historical Symptoms
DESCRIPTION:Sport & Exercise Research Group Seminar \nFootball and Cinema under Francoism – Comparing Visual Motifs to Unveil Historical Symptoms  \n(Dr Manuel Garin – Universitat Pompeu Fabra\, Barcelona) \n  \nVirtual Lecture via Blackboard Collaborate: https://eu.bbcollab.com/guest/4e5604442fcb44b68f5d5630040e8755 \nWhen it comes to the relation of archival materials with historical and political epistemes\, the uses of sport\, and specifically football\, during the Francoist Regime in Spain stands as a key (but still under-researched) topic. Connecting with previous imageries of the silent era\, like Bergfilme or Hollywood sport biopics\, football movies became a genre of its own during the dictatorship\, once labeled by historian J. A. Durán as nationalfootballism (a reappropriation of the historical term nacionalcatolicismo). This audiovisual corpus comprises dozens of fiction films where the biggest football stars of the time\, such as Zamora\, Kubala or Di Stefano\, performed as actors\, and vice versa\, where the biggest actors of the time (like Fernando Fernán Goméz) performed as footballers or fans. More importantly\, these movies created a strong intermedial relationship with other visual works produced during the dictatorship: hundreds of hours of sport-centered footage within the archive of NO-DO (the official newsreels)\, and thousands of photographs in sport newspapers\, film journals\, and popular magazines. Not to mention the aural components of radio broadcasting -and soundscapes- in and out of the films. \nThis talk delves into that critical juncture between football and moving images\, which shaped and still shapes the core of Spanish identity/ies (with political\, class\, and gender trouble)\, by studying such intermedial links in three complementary ways: as an atlas of politicized bodies (sportsmen but also women and minorities)\, an archive of visual motifs (gestures\, situations\, narratives) and a network of places and influences (production companies\, football clubs\, cities\, Francoist institutions\, repressed regions or nationalities\, etc.). Framed within a new research project funded by the Spanish MICINN\, the talk will share its main findings and methodology with our colleagues from NUI Galway\, to foster debate within the Research in Sport seminar. \nManuel Garin is Senior Lecturer in Film and Media Studies at Universitat Pompeu Fabra\, Barcelona. He has been visiting scholar at different institutions like the Tokyo University of The Arts\, the University of Southern California and Columbia University\, where he developed the comparative media projects “Gameplaygag: Between Silent Film and New Media” and “A Hundred Busters: Keaton Across The Arts”\, financed by public grants. Author of the book El gag visual (Cátedra\, 2014)\, his research on cinema\, art history and new media has been published in scientific journals such as Feminist Media Studies\, The Sixties\, International Journal of Cultural Studies\, Communication & Society\, EJHR\, L’Atalante\, EPI\, CJCS or Comparative Cinema\, and in books from Oxford University Press\, MIT Press\, Routledge\, Amsterdam University Press\, Palgrave\, De Gruyter\, ABC-Clio\, Mimesis\, Intermedio\, Cátedra or Edicions 62. As a cultural critic\, he has written for magazines such as La Maleta de Portbou\, Contrapicado or Cultura/s – La Vanguardia. Currently\, he is the PI of the research project “Football and Visual Culture under Francoism”\, financed by Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (PID2020-116277GA-I00) and focused on the relations between sport\, class\, gender\, and national identities in Spanish cinema and audiovisual media.

SUMMARY:Galway Book Launch – Fierce Love: The Life of Mary O'Malley
DESCRIPTION:The Lilliput Press cordially invites you to join us in celebrating the legacy of Mary O’Malley\, and the launching of Bernard Adams’ new biography on her life and work. \nWith special contributions from Professor Lionel Pilkington\, Professor Daniel Carey and Conor O’Malley. Archive exhibition from the O’Malley/Lyric Theatre Archive\, curated by Dr. Barry Houlihan. \nCopies of Fierce Love will be on sale during the event with thanks to Charlie Byrne’s. \nRegistration \nPlease register for this event via Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/galway-book-launch-fierce-love-the-life-of-mary-omalley-tickets-429097009707 \n\nABOUT THE BOOK \nCork-born theatre pioneer (1918–2006)\, Mary O’Malley\, was the founder and director of Belfast’s Lyric Players Theatre from 1951–81. \nIn 1947 Mary married Armagh-born doctor Pearse O’Malley and thereafter moved to Northern Ireland. She was elected to Belfast Corporation in May 1952\, as an Irish Labour Party councillor for the Smithfield ward and in 1959 she founded Threshold literary magazine. \nShe started Belfast’s Lyric Players Theatre in the former stables at the back of her Malone Road home. A self-taught and tireless director\, she contested cultural populism and indifference in the north during the ’50s\, ’60s and ’70s to pioneer the new theatre. As their repertoire grew\, O’Malley felt it necessary to provide a permanent theatre for the company\, and in 1961 the Lyric Players Theatre became a non-profit association\, a base from where her protégés from Liam Neeson\, Ciarán Hinds and others bestrode stage and screen in the last half of the twentieth and beyond. \nFierce Love chronicles a resourceful and controversial individual\, who swam against the tide of populism and sectarianism to establish an independent academy for actors and artists in a tireless quest for imaginative freedom and excellence. Mary O’Malley’s life was complex\, and her legacy enduring. \n‘A titan of Northern Ireland’s theatrical scene … I consumed this beautiful book with a few giggles and tears of memories recalled.’ Liam Neeson \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nBernard Adams\, a Dubliner with Ulster roots\, went to school at Portora in Enniskillen and read English at Trinity College\, Dublin. He became a journalist\, writing early notices of Mary O’Malley’s plays for the Belfast Telegraph in Belfast before working as a BBC television producer in London. He is author of Denis Johnston: A Life (Lilliput\, 2002).

SUMMARY:Centre for Irish Studies Seminar Series: ‘The Law of the Mother and the Sibling World: Leeanne Quinn’s Queer Ecologies’
DESCRIPTION:Centre for Irish Studies Seminar Series \n‘The Law of the Mother and the Sibling World: Leeanne Quinn’s Queer Ecologies’ \nProfessor Moynagh Sullivan \n \nMoynagh Sullivan is a Professor of English at MU\, and the Faculty of Arts\, Celtic Studies and Philosophy Associate Dean for Equality\, Diversity Inclusion and Interculturalism. A visiting scholar at The Centre for Irish Studies at NUIG in 2022\, she has previously been a visiting Professor at the centre for Irish Studies at Boston College\, MA\, and the Fulbright Fellow in Irish Studies at UC Berkeley\, CA. Moynagh’s pioneering intersectional work in Irish Studies has examined patriarchal\, racist and classist structures in canons and canon-making\, and has introduced previously neglected or understudied women writers to the field\, such as Blanaid Salkeld and Carla Lanyon Lanyon. Moynagh’s extensive publications in these areas includes close studies of contemporary poets such as Eavan Boland\, Meadbh McGuckian\, Rita Ann Higgins and Leeanne Quinn. She is currently working on a monograph on Maternal Imaginaries in contemporary Irish culture. \nPaper: ‘The Law of the Mother and the Sibling World: Leeanne Quinn’s Queer Ecologies’ \nPaper Photograph (credit https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/books/i-was-thinking-about-how-we-say-things-in-poetry-how-we-depart-from-our-sources-1.4369661) \nPaper Abstract: \nThis paper examines how the work of poet Leeanne Quinn attends to the interdependence of all life\, ‘every last cord between us’ (Leeanne Quinn\, ‘Acoma’\, Before You\, Dublin: Dedalus Press\, 2012)\, on this planet and beyond.  Born in Drogheda in 1978\, Quinn is an award winning and critically acclaimed Munich-based poet. The molecular and cellular granularity of Quinn’s vision\, ‘wrapped in particles of winter/light’ (Quinn\, Before You\, 2012) ) is perceptually entwined with the existential threat of climate emergency\, and in this paper\, I consider how the interconnectivity of body\, planet\, and art is expressed in Quinn’s acclaimed first volume Before You (2012)\, through the holding metaphor of the ‘sibling world’\, an emotional ecosystem painstakingly painted in the sister poems\, ‘Imprints’ and ‘Mosquitoes’. I explore her writing through psychoanalytical and eco-critical perspectives to advance feminist literary\, cultural research that highlights the damaging dominance of the father-son model of inheritance and influence in Irish cultural critique.

SUMMARY:Open Access Publishing - the Why & How
DESCRIPTION:Open Scholarship Café – Part of Open Access Week 2022\nIn recent years\, the rapidly evolving world of scholarly communication has been subjected to several divisive issues\, but none as hotly debated as the transition to Open Access publishing. It seems to be a good idea but also a bit daunting and you might have heard about large fees in order to publish Open Access? And how is this useful for you as a researcher and author? If these are the questions you are asking yourself then this Open Scholarship Café (in-person) is for you! \nOpen Access is an academic publishing model which makes research freely available to read\, avoiding subscriptions or paywalls. Open Access comes in many flavours and this session will focus on the Library’s recent Open Access agreements (also called transformative agreements) with a number of publishers that allow you as the author to publish Open Access without cost to you. \nNo previous knowledge or publishing experience is needed for this session! The University of Galway Open Scholarship Librarian Hardy Schwamm will introduce the rationale and process of these Open Access agreements\, and the context in which these agreements have been developed. We will also look briefly at Green Open Access and how you can publish your research using our institutional repository ARAN. \nAt the end of this session you will: \n\nUnderstand the need for Open Access publishing\nKnow how to benefit from the Open Access agreements that are available to you\nBe familiar with the options that Green Open Access provides\n\n\nThis In-Person Open Scholarship Café is part of the international Open Access Week which provides the chance to connect the global momentum toward the open sharing of knowledge. \nOpen Scholarship Cafés are organised by the Library of the University of Galway in partnership with the Open Scholarship Community Galway. \nImage used by Chaosheng Zhang. \n\nRelated LibGuide: Open Access Publishing by Trish Finnan \nRegistration\nRegistration is required.

SUMMARY:CAMPS LABS: Plague\, Prayer\, and Print in Sixteenth-century Italy
DESCRIPTION:Plague\, Prayer\, and Print in Sixteenth-century Italy \nKatherine Tycz (Discipline of Italian) \nPlague was a constant fear for early modern Italians. When plague broke out in Italy\, people turned to a variety of devotional tools and practices for protection from disease and spiritual solace. In this presentation\, I will explore the production of printed devotional texts and images that were circulated to help devotees through these difficult times. Ranging from beautiful engravings to cheap devotional pamphlets and flyers\, the threat of plague created prophylactic merchandise that would appeal to a range of consumers. Occasionally sanctioned by the Church\, but often produced outside of the bounds of ecclesiastical oversight\, printed plague protection ranged from the orthodox to the unorthodox and all the blurry areas in between. \nCentre for Antique\, Medieval & Pre-Modern Studies (CAMPS) website: https://www.universityofgalway.ie/camps/

SUMMARY:Reimagining a World for Tomorrow and an Onto-Epistemological Ethics of Remembering
DESCRIPTION:The Discipline of Philosophy is delighted to welcome back one of its PhD graduates \nDr. Roisín Lally of Gonzaga University \nspeaking on: \nReimagining a World for Tomorrow and an Onto-Epistemological Ethics of Remembering \n  \nAbstract \nTime is behind our reality structuring. Physicist/philosopher Karen Barad urges us to think about time differently. In Meeting the Universe Halfway\, she offers us the theoretical tools such that we can return to earlier times and reimagine life differently. To do this requires an ontological shift in perspective which we get with Gilbert Simondon in On the Mode of Existence of Technical Objects. Based on the logic of transduction\, ontogenesis claims that all states of being including time\, space\, and matter exist in excess in each potential being. Similarly\, Karen Barad’s entangled intra-relations emerges as spacetimematterings. There are no subjects as such\, only intra-actions between agents. Agential beings are always already entangled in material practices. Entangled beings make it impossible to differentiate absolutely between human and nonhuman\, organic and inorganic\, subject and object\, nature and culture\, fact and value\, epistemology and ontology. This paper will excavate Barad’s theory of diffraction in light of Gilbert Simondon’s ontogenesis to offer an onto-epistemological ethics that re-configures how we imagine deep time\, both past and future\, and take responsibility for the world we have created\, and will create in the future. \nRόisín Lally teaches philosophy at Gonzaga University. Drawing on the traditions of phenomenology and metaphysics\, she works at the intersection of the philosophy of technology\, feminism\, and sustainability. She is the author of numerous articles and chapters. She is currently writing a monograph entitled Being\, Time\, and Technology and co-editing a book with Daniel Bradley entitled Irish Phenomenology.

Written in Irish and Scottish Gaelic\, the papers make a unique and original contribution to Gaelic Song Studies. As might be expected\, there is much discussion about concepts of authenticity and the ways in which the Gaelic Revival has moulded and shaped the song tradition from inception to the present day. There are also essays on representations of song in literature and a number of explorations of personal engagement with the tradition and the need for a more innovative approach to Gaelic song to ensure its future vitality. No other collection brings such a variety of perspectives to bear on the topic.   \nBailiúchán idirnáisiúnta de chúig aiste dhéag é seo a bhfuil aistí ann le scoláirí aitheanta faoi amhránaíocht na Gaeilge ó Chló Iar-Chonnacht.

SUMMARY:The School of Political Science and Sociology Research Seminar: ‘Exploring testimonial sensibilities and credibility judgments with regards to the Magdalen Laundries and the Mother and Baby Homes’
DESCRIPTION:The School of Political Science and Sociology invite you to a research seminar with: \nProf. Audrey Rousseau  \n‘Exploring testimonial sensibilities and credibility judgments with regards to the Magdalen Laundries and the Mother and Baby Homes’  \nSupported by Global Women’s Studies  \nFor decades\, women and children\, survivors of institutional and state violence\, have kept silent with regards of what was considered immoral whether giving birth out of wedlock\, being so-called “illegitimate”\, or solely not adjusting to gendered societal norms. In 1990s\, but more audibly from 2000s\, witnesses have bravely started to tell their story publicly\, offering a vivid analysis of how oppression have affected their lives but also\, in many cases\, the lives of their descendants. Today\, their claims for recognition and reparation are taken up in the media and the political realms\, including the Ryan report\, the McAleese report\, the Mother and Baby Homes report. Of course\, those committees or inquiries are to be acknowledged\, but they also need to be questioned notably in how they treated survivors accounts\, and the way they often missed opportunities in challenging official historical accounts on violence. Firstly\, drawing on observations from my PhD thesis\, which aimed at reflecting on the capacity “as a giver of knowledge” involved in the act of remembering in the struggle for recognition of the Irish Magdalen Laundries\, 1993-2014\, I wish to discuss the defamatory discursive ethos (based on suspicion and blame) that has long stood in the way of women’s experiential narration. Secondly\, I will explore the bases of a new comparative discourse analysis challenging the differential logic at work between the Magdalen Laundries and Mother and Baby Homes in the Republic of Ireland (1993-2022). In doing so\, I hope to investigate how prejudice based on gender\, class\, and age\, may still be at work in depicting and distributing a capital of sympathy and veracity judgment while listening sensitively to survivors\, activists\, and their descendants. \nAbout: \nAudrey Rousseau is an Associate professor in sociology at the Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO)\, Canada. She specializes in the study of contemporary memorial processes\, including the politics of recognition and redress of historical injustices in relation to colonial and gender-based violence experienced by Indigenous peoples in Canada\, as well as the confinement and forced labour of thousands of women in religious institutions in Ireland (18-20th centuries). Aside from two book chapters (University Press of Florida and Manchester University Press)\, she has mostly published in French-speaking journals such as Études Irlandaises\, Études Féministes\, and Criminocorpus

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Research Seminar: ‘Clothing – whether home-made or bought?’: Non-elite clothing acquisition along the western seaboard of Ireland in the late nineteenth century
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Research Seminar \n‘Clothing – whether home-made or bought?’: Non-elite clothing acquisition along the western seaboard of Ireland in the late nineteenth century \nDr Eliza McKee \n(UK National Archives) \n  \nAbstract\nThe consumption of clothing among the lower classes in Ireland has been overlooked in existing historiography. This paper will shed light on the routine clothing consumption practices of the poorer classes along the western seaboard of Ireland. The paper draws on evidence from the Congested Districts Board baseline reports dating from the 1890s. The Congested Districts Board was established to find long-term solutions to rural poverty in the west of Ireland. Eighty-four congested districts were identified\, and reports were compiled by inspectors to ascertain the socio-economic condition of the people in the districts and to inform improvement measures. The reports provide an insight into the clothing practices of the lower classes and the acquisition methods they used to obtain dress in the late nineteenth century. One question on the reports asked whether clothing was generally home-made or bought by residents\, and other questions explored local industries. The answers reveal information on textile production and material knowledge. The paper will explore what the reports reveal on the county-by-county differences in clothing practice and the commercial and non-commercial acquisition methods utilised\, as well as the internal county differences that existed between highland and lowland\, rural and urban areas\, coastal and inland\, mainland or island areas of the counties. It will also explore how the lower classes used clothing supply networks\, what the reports reveal about ideas of fashion\, the sartorial aspirations of the poorer classes\, and the differences that emerge according to age\, gender and between everyday clothing and Sunday best dress.    \nRegistration\nThis talk will be delivered online\, via Zoom. Register here for the link: https://forms.office.com/r/cCTk5rr0V7\nThe seminar will also be livestreamed in Room 1001\, Hardiman Research Building (Bridge Seminar Room). \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Research Seminar series. \nImage: A child spinning and reeling wool\, Donegal Highlands\, c. 1890-1900.
