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

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: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: ‘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:Centre for Irish Studies Seminar Series: ‘Weighing the Evidence: manuscript versus local history & folklore sources for the topographic aspects of Táin Bó Cúailnge’
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).
