SUMMARY:Archaeology Postgraduate Seminar - Chelsea Ryan
DESCRIPTION:Chelsea Ryan\n1st Year Doctoral Candidate in Archaeology \nConveying Identity Through Place: Understanding Bronze Age People and Society via Nucleated Settlements \nIrish Bronze Age (2200-600BC) settlement studies are dominated by research on roundhouse farmsteads and hillforts. This seminar demonstrates that an in-depth study of a third settlement type\, nucleated settlements (domestic villages)\, will enhance our understanding of Bronze Age society. A focus on the concepts of landscape and place as tools for understanding a site’s role will provide a more nuanced comprehension of settlement relationships and further context for individual and community identity as explicitly expressed in the Irish Bronze Age.

SUMMARY:Digital Scholarship Seminar
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nThe first event of the Spring 2018 series of Digital Scholarship Seminar takes place on Wednesday 14 February at 2pm\, and features a stylometric interrogation of the study of authorship in nineteenth-century periodicals by Francesca Benatti\, Research Fellow in Digital Humanities with The Open University. Following on from her talk on the Digital Humanities project\, A Question of Style: individual voices and corporate identity in the Edinburgh Review\, 1814-1820 at DSS last year\, this presentation will reflect on the progress of the project\, in the particular areas of corpus creation\, methodological evaluation\, and analysis of preliminary results. As ever\, all are welcome. \nFrancesca Benatti (Open University)\nAuthorship\, genre and style in the Edinburgh Review and Quarterly Review\, 1814-20 \nThis seminar presents an interrogation of the study of authorship in nineteenth-century periodicals through the Digital Humanities project\, A Question of Style: individual voices and corporate identity in the Edinburgh Review\, 1814-1820\, which was funded by a Research Society for Victorian Periodicals Field Development Grant in 2017. Together with my colleague David King\, we are working to assess the assumption that early nineteenth-century periodicals succeeded in creating\, through a “transauthorial discourse”\, a unified corporate voice that hid individual authors behind an impersonal public text (Klancher 1987). \nDr Francesca Benatti is a Research Fellow in Digital Humanities with The Open University specialising in digital literary studies. Her digital research interests include stylometry\, text analysis\, digital editions and their applications to the study of literature. Her literary research interests are the writings of Irish author Thomas Moore (1789-1852)\, nineteenth-century periodicals\, book history and comic books. She runs the CHASE Arts and Humanities in the Digital Age doctoral training programme and is one of the editors of the Thomas Moore Archive. \n Connect with DSS: Website | Facebook | Mailing list

SUMMARY:Gender Arc Research Seminar (Irish Women Historians and Life Writing\, 1900-1960)
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will be hosted by Nadia Smith who is a current Visiting Fellow who received her PhD in modern Irish history from Boston College. \nNadia Smith will be presenting on “Irish Women Historians and Life Writing\, 1900-1960\,” as part of her ongoing research on Irish women historians and academics in the NUI in the twentieth century.  As a Moore Institute fellow\, she is currently examining the archival sources on the lives of women academics at NUI Galway [then UCG]\, including personal life writing\, such as diaries and memoirs\, as well as academic texts. Her talk will discuss the women historians’ life writing in relation to diary scholarship and life writing by other educated\, middle-class women in Ireland and Britain in the twentieth century\, and consider elements such as literary devices and extratextual material in diaries and memoirs that help shape the life-writer’s self-portrait. \nContact information: smithum@bc.edu

SUMMARY:Archaeology Seminar -  From the Trowel to the Trenches: Archaeology as Social Activism
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture: Dr Christopher P. Barton\, Assistant Professor Department of History\, Francis Marion University and Fulbright Visiting Scholar in the School of Geography and Archaeology for 2018. \nTitle: From the Trowel to the Trenches: Archaeology as Social Activism \nContemporary economic\, environmental\, political\, and social injustices are modern manifestations of past practices; they are legacies of marginalization. It is from the study of the everyday that we can better understand both our past and present circumstances. Archaeology is in a unique position to provide invaluable discourse on both the recent past and its lasting effects today. The core methodologies and data of archaeology–the archaeological\, ethnographic\, and historical records–situate the field as an interdisciplinary research endeavor armed with a broad methodological and theoretical arsenal to use the craft in support of social activism. \n \nChris Barton PhD is a visiting US Fulbright Scholar from Francis Marion University in South Carolina. He is interested in the archaeology of Irish racialisation during the Irish Diaspora and Great Famine. Professor Barton’s work focuses on the confluence of race and class as intertwined social structures that were used to marginalize the rural Irish. Additionally\, he is in the early stages of developing a community-based archaeological project that focuses on resistance\, improvisation\, and identity on the Great Blasket Island\, County Kerry. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Thinking Continental: Writing the Planet One Place at a Time - Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Thinking Continental: Writing the Planet One Place at a Time \nEdited by Tom Lynch\, Susan Naramore Maher\, Drucilla Wall\, and O. Alan Weltzien.  \n(Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press\, 2017) \nFollowing an introduction by Dr Louis de Paor\, Centre for Irish Studies\, NUI Galway\, the volume will be launched by Professor Bríona Nic Dhiarmada\, Keough-Naughton Institute for Irish Studies\, University of Notre Dame. \n \nIn response to the growing scale and complexity of environmental threats\, this volume collects articles\, essays\, personal narratives\, and poems by more than forty authors in conversation about ‘thinking continental’—connecting local and personal landscapes to universal systems and processes—to articulate the concept of a global or planetary citizenship. \nReckoning with the larger matrix of biome\, region\, continent\, hemisphere\, ocean\, and planet has become necessary as environmental challenges require the insights not only of scientists but also of poets\, humanists\, and social scientists. Thinking Continental braids together abstract approaches with strands of narrative and poetry\, showing how our imaginations can encompass the planetary while also being true to our own concrete life experiences in the here and now. \nYou are welcome to join us for the launch of Thinking Continental where writers and scholars such as Nessa Cronin\, Susan Millar Dumars\, Tom Lynch\, Susan Naramore Maher\, Joan McBreen\, Barry Johnston\, Fabiana Dimpflmeier and Drucilla Wall\, will read from their contributions to the volume. \nhttp://www.nebraskapress.unl.edu/university-of-nebraska-press/9780803299580/ \nFor further information contact: Dr Nessa Cronin nessa.cronin@nuigalway.ie \n

SUMMARY:Andy Kellogg: The Early Medieval Royal Assembly Sites at Gamla Uppsala and Magh Adhair.
DESCRIPTION:Andy Kellogg \nThe Early Medieval Royal Assembly Sites at Gamla Uppsala and Magh Adhair: A Comparative Study of their Settlement and Landscape Contexts. \nThe Yngling dynasty in Svealand\, Sweden and the Dál Cais dynasty in what is now Co. Clare may have shared a common approach in the way they legitimized their right to be kings. The valorization of a pedigree is a common phenomenon among the royal families of the medieval period and it may have been done by those two dynasties with a common purpose. The re-use of prehistoric monuments as places of royal assembly is a witness of their importance to kings during the early medieval period. This prehistoric archaeology had an importance in the choice of the location for early medieval assembly sites. By looking at the assembly landscape contexts\, we can gain a better understanding of the early medieval conception of kingship.  Comparing the two dynasties and their assembly sites at Gamla Uppsala and Magh Adhair may lead to the identification of common approaches in the establishment of the two sites and how their landscapes were used. \nRoyal Inauguration assembly site of Magh Adhair and the royal burial mounds of Gamla Uppsala: \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nItalian \nSchool of Languages\, Literatures & Cultures \nThe Moore Institute \nCharles Burdett\, University of Bristol \nTransnational Time: Reading Post War Representations of the Italian Presence in East Africa \nWorking from recent theoretical writing on time and the concept of the spectral\, the paper begins by questioning how we can talk about transnational temporalities. The paper then looks at some of the ways in which the Italian colonial and post-colonial presence in Eritrea and Ethiopia\, with all its complexities and haunting legacies\, has been represented in fiction by Gabriella Ghermandi\, Erminia Dell’Oro and Nicky Di Paolo. \nCharles Burdett is Professor of Italian at the University of Bristol. The principal areas of his research are: Italian culture under Fascism; the representation of colonialism; travel writing; theories of inter-cultural contact. An important part of his work concerns the theoretical frame through which we consider transnational contact and the implications for the disciplinary field of Modern Languages of the study of cultural translation in all its forms. He is one of the investigators in the large grant\, ‘Transnationalizing Modern Languages: Mobility\, Identity and Translation in Modern Italian Cultures’ that is a beacon project for the AHRC’s ‘Translating Cultures’ theme. He is the author of Journeys through Fascism: Italian Travel Writing between the Wars (paperback 2010). His most recent book is Italy\, Islam and Islamic World: Representations and Reflections from 9/11 to the Arab Uprisings (2016). He is currently working on a monographic study\, The Representation of the Italian Empire and its Afterlife: Utopia\, Time\, and Memory. \n

SUMMARY:Monica Mulrennan (Visiting Fellow) School of Geography
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Fishing: the connection of Indigenous Torres Strait Islander (northern Australia) Women to sea space \nMonica E. Mulrennan\, \nDepartment of Geography\, Planning and Environment\, \nConcordia University\, Montreal \nDocumentation of the knowledge and practices of indigenous fishing societies has tended to focus on the contribution of men while the activities of women have been overlooked or\, at best\, narrowly described. Focusing on a small island community in eastern Torres Strait (northern Australia)\, and drawing on interviews\, questionnaire surveys and participant observation\, this presentation explores the nature and extent of indigenous Torres Strait Islander women’s engagement in fishing activities as well as their related knowledge\, practices and motivations. In addition to debunking the myth of their limited participation in commercial fishing\, the findings reveal the deeply-felt personal attachments and connections these women have to “solwata”. These are reflected in the extent to which the rhythms of the sea shape and define their daily routines\, life histories and understanding of territory. The presentation concludes with a call for greater attention to the connections indigenous women have to sea space and for fisheries management to accommodate and support their increased participation in the formulation and implementation of contemporary fisheries policy.

SUMMARY:Matthew Noone (Visiting Fellow)  Listening to Irish music as Indian raga.
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nListening to Irish music as Indian raga: an arts practice research project \nDr. Matthew Noone (UL) and Dr. Lillis Ó Laoire (NUIG) \nThis research project focuses on the supposition of Irish-Indian musical connections\, most notably the idea of sean-nos singing bearing a strong resemblance to Indian classical music (Ó Ríada\, 1962; Feehan\, 1982; Quinn\, 1987). It is an extension of previous research in exploring Irish traditional music and Orientalist discourse through an Arts Practice and performance based methodology (Noone\, 2016). This research will use the collaborative artistic practice of two musicians (Matthew Noone on the North Indian lute called sarode and sean-nos singer Lillis O Laoire) as a case study to explore the veracity of Irish-Indian musical sympathies.  A background to the theoretical implications of this research will be presented through an interdisciplinary lens of Irish studies\, Orientalist discourse and ethnomusicology. This seminar will also feature performances of re-interpretations of traditional songs written by 18th century Irish poet Tómas Ó Casaide.
