  • The Irish World: How to Revise a Long-Standing Dictionary Project Turlough O’Riordan
    3 THE IRISH WORLD: HOW TO REVISE A LONG-STANDING DICTIONARY PROJECT TURLOUGH O’RIORDAN The gradual emergence of digital resources since the 1980s has transformed biographical research. The proliferation of digital resources—ubiquitous and searchable—generates profound questions for the integrity of biographical research. The digitisation of existing scholarly material (monographs, edited collections, journal articles) and new digital platforms (newspaper archives, online repositories), when combined with digital search techniques, facilitate the querying of vast amounts of information. The purpose of biographical reference remains unaltered. Offering accuracy and precision, national biographical dictionaries present rigorously researched factual biographies, incorporating relevant contextual analysis, based on verifiable sources. Although perceived in analogue terms, national biographical dictionaries are expected to incorporate the outputs of the digital revolution. The increasing prevalence of digitised primary resources—newspapers and periodicals; official and public papers; specialised archives and collections— has transformed historical research practices. Digital platforms, editions, and tools deliver an ever-expanding abundance of information. However, established qualitative research methods, developed in analogue contexts, are unquestionably applied to digital material and resources. 37 ‘TRUE Biographies of Nations?’ Digital publication allows new content to be rapidly disseminated and easily searched. Scholarship assesses the veracity and authenticity of information. It must also consider how such information is (or is not) presented to us. Fluid conceptual boundaries between digital editions, archives, and online platforms1 (all structured databases) are blurred by how keyword searching guides scholarship. Our unquestioned reliance upon these tools, whose operation is little understood, is troubling. The experience of theDictionary of Irish Biography (DIB), facing into a world increasingly reliant upon digitally mediated research, may be instructive.

    A newsletter of UWM’s Center for Celtic S tudies Volume 1, Issue 2 Samhain, 2002 Failte! Croeso! Mannbet! Kroesan! Welcome! The Center’s First Year Tosnu maith-leath na hoibre (well begun is half-done)! So goes the Irish seanfhocal (proverb) and it comes to mind when we look back over the past year. Nearly 500 students have taken courses in our program and five have already received their Celtic Studies Certificates. We’ve had 52 participants in our Study Abroad programs, including our ‘Saints, Scholars and Scoundrels’ tour. Two of our students (Brian Hart and Aislinn Gagliardi) received Irish Fest scholarships, and put them to good use during their summer studies in Ireland. Twelve of our students spent three glorious weeks in Donegal, learning Irish and studying the unique local culture, some went digging up the Celtic past in Germany. At the end of the academic year, my co-director Bettina Arnold took a well-deserved sabbatical, part of which will be spent developing our relationships in the Celtic regions. We’re all grateful for the tremendous inspiration and Co-directors John Gleeson and leadership she has provided in our first year. While she’s away, Jose Lanters has Jose Lanters kindly stepped in as co-director. Renowned for her scholarship and teaching of Irish literature, Jose currently chairs our Advisory Committee. In late spring, we carried out a successful and groundbreaking experiment in Distance Learning. It involved students and faculty from our program at UWM, and the Irish World Music Centre at U of Limerick. Nancy Walczyk continues to develop our relationship with the University of Limerick.

Recognising the many methodologies that make up historical research, the series presents innovative and interdisciplinary work that is conceptual and interpretative, and expands and challenges the common understandings of the Irish past. It showcases new and exciting scholarship on subjects such as the history of gender, power, class, the body, landscape, memory and social and cultural change. It also reflects the diversity of Irish historical writing, since it includes titles that are empirically sophisticated together with conceptually driven synoptic studies. 1.

  • A Report on Market Structure, Dynamics and Developments in Irish Media
    Broadcasting Authority of Ireland A report on market structure, dynamics and developments in Irish media Supplied in support of the BAI’s consultation on its Broadcasting Services Strategy December 2017 Mediatique Limited 65 Chandos Place London WC2N 4HG United Kingdom www.mediatique.co.uk BAI – Market structure, dynamics and developments Executive summary Introduction ° The Broadcasting Authority of Ireland (‘BAI’) is the regulator of the Irish broadcasting market. ° Among other statutory duties under the Broadcasting Act (2009), the BAI is required to prepare a Broadcasting Services Strategy (‘BSS’) covering the provision of broadcasting services in Ireland. The BAI's current BSS was agreed in 2011. The new BSS will reflect the current Strategy Statement in force (2017-19) covering the BAI’s key objectives around plurality, diversity, support for indigenous content and promotion of content in the Irish language. ° Mediatique was commissioned to provide a detailed overview of current and future developments in the Irish broadcasting landscape, and to consider the likely trajectory over the next five years. This work is aimed at informing the new BSS and, in particular, helping the BAI define its approach to regulation in the light of market dynamics over time. ° Our brief included consideration of consumer behaviour, platform and distribution developments, changes in technology and evolving business models associated with broadcasting. ° We were asked specifically to analyse the sustainability of revenues that underpin expenditure on audio and visual content, particularly Irish content, and to consider whether the current regulatory framework needs to evolve in line with market dynamics. ° Within our wider work, the BAI has asked for analysis on two specific topics – prospects for the launch of commercial digital terrestrial multiplexes carrying TV channels to supplement those already available on Saorview; and whether the BAI, working with industry and Government, should seek to promote digital audio broadcasting (‘DAB’).
