  • “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of
    “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dana DeVlieger, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Johanna Devaney Anna Gawboy Copyright by Dana Lauren DeVlieger 2016 Abstract “Whiskey in the Jar” is a traditional Irish song that is performed by musicians from many different musical genres. However, because there are influential recordings of the song performed in different styles, from folk to punk to metal, one begins to wonder what the role of the song’s Irish heritage is and whether or not it retains a sense of Irish identity in different iterations. The current project examines a corpus of 398 recordings of “Whiskey in the Jar” by artists from all over the world. By analyzing acoustic markers of Irishness, for example an Irish accent, as well as markers of other musical traditions, this study aims explores the different ways that the song has been performed and discusses the possible presence of an “Irish feel” on recordings that do not sound overtly Irish. ii Dedication Dedicated to my grandfather, Edward Blake, for instilling in our family a love of Irish music and a pride in our heritage iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Graeme Boone, for showing great and enthusiasm for this project and for offering advice and support throughout the process. I would also like to thank Johanna Devaney and Anna Gawboy for their valuable insight and ideas for future directions and ways to improve.

  • Annual Report of the President
    GROWTH TRANSITION REFLECTION 2018-2019 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT Mission Statement: Molloy College, an independent, Catholic college rooted in the Dominican tradition of study, spirituality, service, and community, is committed to academic excellence with respect for each person. Through transformative education, Molloy promotes a lifelong search for truth and the development of ethical leadership. PRESIDENT'S LETTER There are defining times in our lives when we pause to reflect upon where we’ve been and how far we’ve come. There are also times when we look ahead and choose the next path we will follow. For Molloy College, the time to do both is now. Just as people evolve, evaluate and plan, so do institutions. As you probably know, I have decided to retire at the end of the academic year. With that, there will come a new leader, new paths and new goals for the College. It is an exciting time for me as an individual, and also as the President of Molloy. Exciting because during the better part of the year that lies ahead I will have many opportunities to reflect on the journey that Molloy and I have taken during the 20 years of my presidency. Exciting because I will have the chance to work with the individual who will lead the Molloy community. And exciting because it is time for me to step onto the next path I’ve chosen. This Annual Report of the President is the first of many opportunities for the Molloy community to review the journey that we – all of us – have taken.

Most of these poems have never before appeared in print. I have divided the book into two parts, each with its own notes and vocabulary, in the hope of making it the more accessible to students. The poems range in date from about the twelfth century down to the early nineteenth. They deal with a variety of subjects—friendship, poverty, natural beauty, and so on, but not with love, which has already a whole volume to itself in Dánta Grádha. They are often of unequal merit ; but of the best of them it can be said with confidence that they are poems of which any Uterature might well be proud. In selecting the poems I have armed at giving preference to those which are simple in style and which can be appreciated to-day by a reader who is unequipped with special knowledge of Irish history or genealogy. Accordingly I have in general avoided the official panegyrics and elegies composed by the poets of the schools, and also the more formal kind of devotional verse as practised by the same poets.
