SUMMARY:IRC Information Session
DESCRIPTION:The Moore Institute will host an information session on the IRC Research Project Grants Scheme on Wednesday\, September 4 at 1pm in the Moore Institute seminar room (Room 203).  The expectation will be that those interested in applying to the scheme will have read\, in advance\, the Terms & Conditions that apply (available here http://www.research.ie/funding/research-project-grants-scheme-2013); this will allow us to spend the majority of the time answering the more focused questions that applicants will have at this stage of the process.  Prof. Patrick Lonergan\, who currently holds a project grant award\, will also be available for advice on the application process.

Specific projects include sustainability\, neighbourhood and city planning\, child\, youth and citizen engagement\, arts and culture strategies\, food security inventories\, and the development of sustainable local economy. How the CMC uses high tech- high touch applications and open-source\, GIS and CIS (geographic and community information systems) will also be included\, with discussion of tools and techniques which community and campus groups can easily use. Finally\, Maeve will share global connections in her role as advisor and Canadian hub/resource for the Green Map System (www.greenmap.org)\, based in New York\, who have supported more than 750 print and on-line green mapping initiatives around the world\, with many in Ireland\, the UK and other parts of Europe. \nMaeve Lydon (whose parents were born and raised in Galway and father graduated from UCG!) is the Associate Director of the Institute for Studies and Innovation in Community-University Engagement (CUE) and staff with Community Based Research Canada (CBRC)\, based at the University of Victoria on the west coast of Canada.

SUMMARY:Finnegan's Wake reading group
DESCRIPTION:The NUI\, Galway Finnegans Wake reading group is starting up again this September. \nOur first meeting will be 1-2pm in the Moore Institute Seminar Room\, Thursday 26th September.   If you like gossiping\, poetry\, languages\, puns\, puzzles\, jokes\, double entendres or even avant-garde tomes\, you might like Finnegans Wake. Despite its scurrilous critical reputation\, James Joyce’s final workis not as difficult as it would first appear and\,when read as part of a group\, can be a hugely rewarding experience. It is our hope to read the text episodically\, playing close attention to the rhythm and musicality of the piece; we aim to stress the looseness of the text without resort to lucidity. \nNo prior experience of Joyce is necessary and the meetings will be very informal so everyone is very welcome. \nJoin us on the 26th or consider joining our Facebook group to keep abreast of news\, dates and any strange Joycean ephemera that we find.

SUMMARY:Early Modern Travel: Theory and Practice\, International Conference 27-28th September
DESCRIPTION:Early Modern Travel: Theory and Practice \nIn the early modern period the development of inquiries\, questionnaires\, and directions for travel proliferated in an attempt to make travel a useful and productive activity. This conference explores the widespread effort to provide instruction\, as well as the travel practices that emerged in response to and in tension with these demands in the domains of natural history and cultural and political observation. Travel developed as a scholarly enterprise and was also incorporated into wider debates among humanists and other authorities evaluating religion\, military conflict\, and commercial expansion. The conference breaks down the separation between European and ‰Û÷exotic‰۪ travel (in the Ottoman Empire\, Persia\, Arabia) and challenges conventional periodization by describing traditions from the Renaissance to Enlightenment.  \nParticipants from Ireland\, the UK\, France\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, Italy\, Denmark\, and Brazil\, will discuss figures ranging from Hakluyt to Montaigne\, Knolles\, La Loub̬re and Michaelis. \n‰ÛÏTexts\, Contexts\, Culture‰۝ is funded under the Higher Education Authority\, under PRTLI4 http://www.hea.ie \nFriday 27 September \n  \n9.15Registration and Welcome \nSession 1: 16th Century agendas \nChair: Jane Grogan (UCD) \nEdward Collins (UCD/Universidad Pablo de Olavide\, Seville) \n‰Û÷Marriage\, Union\, and the Transfer of Knowledge in the Maritime Enterprises of Spain\, Portugal and England in the Sixteenth Century‰۪ \nLadan Niayesh (Paris 7) \n‰Û÷From Travel Guide to Collection of Exempla: Andrew Borde‰۪s The First Book of the Introduction of Knowledge (1547)‰۪ \n10.45 Coffee and tea break \n11.15Session 2: Networks\, politics\, and instructional strategies \nChair: Daniel Carey (NUI Galway) \nSebastian Sobecki (Groningen) \n‰Û÷Innocent Espionage: Robert Cecil‰۪s Network and John Peyton‰۪s Travels in Central Europe\, 1598-1603‰۪ \nPaola Molino (Austrian National Library) \n‰Û÷The Importance of Being ‰ÛÏInstructed‰۝ in the Late 16th-Century Scholarly World‰۪ \n12.30Lunch \n2.00bus departure for Claregalway \n14.45Session 3: The Arabian Voyage\, 1761-1767 \nChair: Ida Pugliese (NUI Galway/Marie Curie IEF) \nDaniel Carey (NUI Galway)\,  \n‰۪J.D.

SUMMARY:Seeing the World: Travel\, Text\, Image - International conference 27-28 September 2013
DESCRIPTION:Seeing the world: Travel\, text\, image \nAuthors of travel narratives attempting to convey in words their discoveries and observations increasingly turned to images to support their text. In this they were encouraged by publishers and the public\, developing in time a dedicated art industry and new book forms. This conference focuses attention on the various uses of graphic art in topographical and ethnographical writing by travellers from the Early Modern period to the present\, and the relationship between text and image. \nThe topics proposed by the participants\, from Italy\, Switzerland\, America\, France\, Greece and Ireland\, range from the iconography of specific areas\, such as Switzerland\, the Eastern Mediterranean\, the Western Mediterranean\, Ireland\, to the work of particular individuals\, notably Jonathan Fisher\, Luttrell Wynne\, Beranger and Bigari in Ireland and W.H.J. Browne in the Arctic. Among the areas covered are the National Library of Ireland‰۪s resources for research on travel\, the implications of evolving media for both text and image\, including their online presence. Present-day topographical writing and the images it engenders are the focus of a session devoted to Tim Robinson‰۪s Connemara trilogy. \n‰Û÷Texts\, Contexts\, Cultures‰۪ is funded by the Higher Education Authority\, under PRTLI4 (http://www.hea.ie).
