  • Cumann Na Mban: During the Easter Rising
    Cumann na mBan: During the Easter Rising Dylan Savoie Junior Division Individual Documentary Process Paper: 500 words Once I learned about National History Day, I immediately wanted to do something related to my Irish heritage seeing as my mother was born in Ireland. In my research, I found the Easter Rising. Now that I had narrowed my selection down, I began to dig deeper, and I came across an Irish women's group, Cumann na mBan, that helped greatly in the Rising but has gone largely unnoticed in history. I tried to have a wide range of research. First, I began by searching for a video about Cumann na mBan. I had found an RTE documentary on the Easter Rising of 1916. It was in that documentary that I came across Fr. Oliver Rafferty, a professor at Boston College. I was able to obtain his email address, contact him, and we had a phone interview. I searched websites and books at my local and Boston Public Library, taking notes and citing them in Noodletools as I went. The Burns Library at Boston College has the most extensive Irish History collection outside of Ireland, so in January, I went there too and was able to obtain many primary sources. In February, I went to Boston College and interviewed Fr. Rafferty in person. I was able to talk with him and combine what I had learned in my research to understand my topic in more depth than I had before. After I collected my research, I decided that my project would be best represented in the form of a documentary.

    XVII International Conference of the Spanish Association for Irish Studies (AEDEI) “Eco-Fictions Irish studies” BOOK OF ABSTRACTS Facultade de Filoloxía, USC Santiago de Compostela 31 May - 1 June 2018 XVII INTERNATIONAL AEDEI CONFERENCE: ‘Eco-Fictions & Irish Studies’ Santiago de Compostela, 31 May – 1 June PANEL SESSIONS Asier ALTUNA-GARCÍA DE LA SALAZAR (University of Deusto) “Landscapes of Post-silence within a Stream of Post-consciousness: Mike McCormack’s Solar Bones (2016)” Mike McCormack’s experimental novel, Solar Bones (2016) narrates in a long run-on sentence the main protagonist’s life. The novel takes place on All Soul’s Day, “the grey days after the Samhain”, when the dead return from purgatory and, according to local folklore, spend some time with the living. McCormack’s novel is Joycean in format and style, as the narrative is a continuous, open-ended sentence, and the dead come to posthumously reflect on the landscape of the world of those alive. This paper approaches McCormack’s novel, which narrates the tensions between the “ghostly” silence of an “individual”, Marcus Conway, who is already dead, and the need to recall and re-live in language, albeit through a monologue with exudes a frantic stream of consciousness, the futility of a varied landscape of life at the time of the recession in Ireland. McCormack skillfully ponders upon the overwhelming construct of silence in his novel. He embarks on the reflection of death as the silencing factor that, only on All Soul’s Day, through the return of the main protagonist, allows for the recall of those landscapes that are now only retrievable within the use of streams of post-consciousness.
