The Fourth John Butler Yeats Seminar The Seminar
will discuss the work of the Yeats family and their contemporaries over three
days. There will also be a privately curated visit
to the The Swift
Theatre has a capacity of 100 people. We are offering ten scholarships to
students. This means the attendance is limited to 90 people. If we receive
more than 90 applications we will seek a larger space. See http://johnbutleryeatsseminar.com/
The Centre
for Irish Studies based at the 2009 has
been marked by the publication on the In the
run-up to and following the Good Friday Agreement, the issue of how to
address the grievances, demands and needs of victims of the 30 year conflict
has proved highly sensitive, due to differing perceptions of who the victims
really are, of how best to approach their needs, with some quarters even
questioning the wisdom of “stirring up” the past. Indeed, the steady
stream of reports and commissions investigating the victims of the Troubles
is indicative of the difficulty in reaching consensus on the most appropriate
way(s) to deal with the legacy of the past in order to provide for a more
serene future. Patricia
Lundy and Mark McGovern outline three distinct threads in dealing with the
past in post-conflict transformation today, all concerned with key concepts
of truth, justice, memory and healing: “The therapeutic, archival and
judicial imperatives can be taken as defining the logic of post-conflict
memory work today. They also establish the, at times, contradictory, ends of
truth recovery processes: to find ‘healing’ for victims by giving
them a public voice; to re-write the record of the conflict and establish a
new, potentially shared narrative of the past; and to revisit past injustice
in order to establish an accountable, rights-based regime in the
future.” . In a
broader perspective, Ireland’s past and collective memories are etched
with examples of victims, victimhood, and victimisation: the Famine victims,
those who have become martyrs or heroes in both nationalist and unionist
narratives of the past, victims of the siege of Derry, the Easter Rising, the
battle of the Somme, Bloody Sunday, the Hunger strikes and more recently,
those groups left out of the economic boom, and victims of the growing fear
of otherness which manifests itself in racism and hate crime. It would
now seem an opportune moment to devote a conference to this general thematic
in an Irish context. We are
particularly interested in hearing papers on : -differing
perceptions and definitions of victims and victimhood, -the plight
of victims, -the
reluctance of the State and other parties to delve into the past, -the input
of civic society in representing victims, -revisiting
past wrongs to move forward in the future, -closure
and victims as survivors, -conflict
transformation and peace-building, -the
portrayal of victims in literature, film and the arts The
cross-disciplinary nature of Irish Studies provides a wide range of
approaches from which to examine victims and victimhood. We welcome
submissions for 20-minute papers in English (preferably) or French from
numerous areas including Conflict and Peace Studies, Victims studies, Law and
Human Rights, History, Politics, Comparative Analysis, Sociology, Psychology,
Cultural Studies, Migration Studies, Literature, Media and Film Studies,

keynote speakers include: Susan Bassnett, David
Constantine, Lawrence Venuti The recent
‘creative turn’ in translation studies has challenged notions of
translation as a derivative and uncreative activity which is inferior to
‘original’ writing. Commentators have drawn attention to the
creative processes involved in the translation of texts, and suggested a
rethinking of translation as a form of creative writing. Hence there is
growing critical and theoretical interest in translations undertaken by
literary authors. This
conference focuses on acts of translation by creative writers. Literary
scholarship has tended to overlook this aspect of an author’s output,
yet since the time of The
conference seeks to reassess the importance of translation for European
writers – both well-known and less familiar – from antiquity to
the present day. It will explore why authors translate, what they translate,
and how they translate, as well as the links between an author’s
translation work and his or her own writing. It will bring together scholars
in English studies and modern languages, classics and medieval studies,
comparative literature and translation studies. Possible topics include: Proposals

Paysages/Landscapes There have
been many attempts at theorizing landscape as a concept. The etymology of the
word itself has been very much discussed and the ways in which time and space
are perceived vary enormously from one period to the other, each period
building its own modes of spatial representation. The philosophy of landscape
is therefore vast and has extended ramifications with the notions of the
picturesque and the pastoral but also the sublime whilst it has also been
extensively questioned by post-modern deconstructionists. The issue
here is to study and discuss the various ways and means in which a landscape
is constructed but also to focus on all the participants who contribute to
its making, either as spectators and artists or those who simply walk through
it and work in it. For landscapes are as much a field of study for spectators
and their subjective points of view as they are for those who experience it
more directly and physically. The word
‘landscapes’ in the plural as a title for this Congress,
emphasizes the vast variety of landscapes and links them to the equally
numerous participants who walk through them – tourists, wanderers,
hikers, explorers, farmers, artists, landscape designers, environmentalists,
developers, map-makers – and therefore to the various subjectivities
engaged into building landscapes. The
geography, geology and climate of In the past
decades, the unprecedented economic development of The notion
of ‘landscape’ is also worth studying from a metaphorical and
linguistic point of view. We find the use of terms such as
‘institutional landscape’, ‘political landscape’, and
‘media landscape’: is there a particular link between such
semantic shifts in discourse and land or territories? To what representations
of In the
field of visual arts and literature, the theme of this Congress opens out
onto a number of paths worth exploring in Irish works of every period, both
myths and legends, as well as fiction, poetry or drama (Faber Book of
Landscape Poetry, Kenneth Baker ed.). In contemporary literature, urban
landscapes are often central, as are no-man’s lands and deconstructed
territories. Equally interesting, studies that take their inspiration from
eco-criticism or geo-poetics would be especially welcome. PAPER

Middleton has asserted that ‘Modern writers have revelled in
masculinity without ever quite naming it’ and this is particularly true
of Irish authors and cultural practitioners. This inaugural interdisciplinary
conference on Irish Masculinities will examine the multitudinous ways in
which the Irish male has been portrayed and interrogated in Irish culture and
society. Criticism on this issue is only now beginning to emerge and it is
the aim of this conference to draw this diverse body of researchers together
to locate and theorise Irish Masculinities for the first time within the
specific context of Irish Studies. Papers of
20 minutes’ duration are invited on themes which may include, but are
not limited to: § Representations of masculinity in Irish literature § The Irish male on stage and screen § Irish masculinities and socio-cultural taboos § Sport and the Irish male § Historicising Irish masculinity § Performing Irish masculinities Please

of the formation of the Irish Transport and General Workers’ Union, one
of the first public meetings of the Irish Women’s Franchise League, the
death of J.M. Synge, and the Abbey Theatre’s
premier of GB Shaw’s The Shewing-up of Blanco
Posnet. These events, in their own ways, represent
inroads of liberalism into modern Irish society. When the ITGWU
took its campaign against the conservative masters of labor,
in the hands of leaders like James Larkin and (eventually) James Connolly, it
strove to implement socialistic values into Irish society. The IWFL spearheaded not only women’s suffrage

questions for the study of religion, but also have important implications in
fields as wide-ranging as gender relations, roads protests, the politics of
church and state, immigration, tourism, funeral practices, education, youth
cultures, health and regulation, globalization, and our relationship to the
past, physical or imagined. They shed light on the transformation of religion

theoretical and empirical papers in a range of disciplines on all aspects of
these new movements in Ireland, including but not limited to "New
Age" groups, pagan / Celtic movements, other new religious movements,
world religions in Ireland, alternative medicine and bodywork,
"cults" and schisms within established Irish churches, non- and
anti-religious groups, and new religious movements abroad which have strong
Irish roots or influences. While the conference is dedicated
to academic research, it will be open to the public and we expect interest
from the media as well as from mainstream churches, alternative practitioners
and other interested parties. We welcome papers by established
researchers and graduate students in all academic disciplines (including but
not limited to anthropology, archaeology, cultural studies, economics,
English, health research, history, neuroscience, philosophy, politics,
psychology, sociology, religious studies, tourism studies, women's studies )
as well as cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary papers and work by
researchers outside of academia. Papers may be theoretical or
empirical in their approach, and include historical, qualitative and
quantitative studies, documentary and case study approaches, and other
methodologies and approaches. The only limitation is that this is a research
conference rather than a place to debate the truth or religious value of
particular religious beliefs or practices, and we are looking for papers
which advance understanding rather than simply describing, celebrating or
condemning. Some suggested themes for papers

topics related to the conference focus. The deadline for proposals is May 1st,

completed papers, is October 1st, 2009. Papers should be in .doc format and
be no longer than 9,000 words including footnotes, bibliography etc. Speakers

multi-disciplinary conference, as well as being open to an informed and

selected papers from the conference, suitably rewritten, as a definitive
collection on the subject. Maynooth is 15 miles outside Myth and Reality: Language, Literature, and Culture in Modern According to mythographer
Lewis Spence a myth explains “our relation to the universe, the
environment or a social programme”. In the Irish context, this
definition of myth helps to understand the interrelationship between the
retrieval of the Irish mythological lore and the construction of communal
identity that characterised twentieth century Irish history, literature and
socio-political reality. Spence’s broad definition of myth, though
initially referring to gods or supernatural beings, can easily be adapted to
explain the construction of contemporary myths. Understood in a Barthesian sense, the concept of myth can be extended to
include socio-cultural narratives that are constructed and become naturalised
as symbols of a community to express the way it relates to the world. A
changing reality calls for new ways of relating to the context and,
consequently, for the (re)construction of myths. In the last few decades
Irish reality, north and south of the border, has dramatically changed. The
aim of this conference is to analyse the (re)construction of myths that

declared that “the normal and the national are synonymous in literary
criticism.” Yet this potent collocation of the normal and the national
in Irish life need not be confined to the realm of Irish letters. An enduring
preoccupation with normalcy and nationality has long been evident in all
spheres of Irish life, and continues to resonate today. Queer studies is
uniquely placed to interrogate how these concerns have been imbricated in Irish culture since, as Michael Warner has
remarked, queer theory is predicated on “a thoroughgoing resistance to
regimes of the normal.” Recent cultural production in Possible topics might include: The queer body politic/The queer political

numerous sex scandals in the church and political scandals in the state,
creative practitioners now confronted contentious issues, and we welcome
papers examining the resultant artistic output. Irish theatre has undergone a
variety of renaissances and revivals. This conference seeks to explore the
development of the genre post 1980 taking into account the ending of the Troubles,
