Visualizing Celtic Culture: Ireland and Scotland Through the Media Instructor: Kevin Taylor Anderson, Phd 1 Visualizing Celtic Culture: Ireland and Scotland through the Media Instructor: Kevin Taylor Anderson, PhD Module Rationale This course aims to expose undergraduate students to the diverse and rich cultures of Ireland and Scotland. The course focuses primarily on contemporary Ireland and Scotland as expressed through the arts and media with a particular focus on how “Celticness” and Celtic history are embedded and featured in their respective contemporary societies. While our main focus is on contemporary society in Ireland and Scotland, we will also be visiting sites of historical and archaeological significance as well. We will be examining cultural sites, visual arts, and media and we will be meeting with producers of these cultural products as well, in order to gain a greater understanding of the range and variety of media representations of “Irishness,” “Scottishness,” and “Celticness.” Learning Outcomes Students will gain a rich and deep understanding of contemporary and historical issues at the center of Irish and Scottish national identity. Concentration will be on the arts and culture, but students will also have a working understanding of historical, political, and economic distinctions between Ireland and Scotland as well. Students will also gain a broad appreciation of the peoples of Ireland and Scotland as a means to challenge stereotypes and preconceptions that are ubiquitous in popular media. Students will also gain skills in research methods: such as interviewing, critical analysis of media and visual culture, as well as presentation and collaboration skills.

  • SU407 INTRODUCTION to ART in IRELAND (3 Credits)
    SU407 INTRODUCTION TO ART IN IRELAND (3 Credits) COURSE OBJECTIVE: This course will trace the development of Irish art from Newgrange to the 2009 Venice Biennale. In the first part of the course students will learn to appraise and evaluate a broad spectrum of prehistoric art and the outstanding artistic achievements of the ‘Golden Age’ of Irish art; the Book of Kells, the Tara Brooch and Irish High Crosses. The second half of the course will focus on how the ‘rediscovery’ of this early artistic legacy informed later artists, culminating in the ‘Celtic Revival’ of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries before moving on to the development of modern art in Ireland, examining the work of Jack Yeats, Mainie Jellett, and many others. The course will conclude with an overview of trends in contemporary Irish art. A key question underlying the various strands of the course will be the development of a distinctly Irish cultural identity in the visual arts and the influence of international trends on Irish artists throughout the ages. COURSE OUTLINE: Week 1 Introductory lecture Passage Grave Art Bronze Age Gold Work FIELD SEMINAR: NATIONAL MUSEUM & NATIONAL GALLERY Week 2 La Tène Art: The Earliest Art of the Celts Irish Art AD 300-500: the Iron Age to Early Christian Transition The Golden Age of Irish Art The Work of Angels: Early Christian Manuscript Art Week 3 Celtic High Crosses: Ornament, Symbolic Significance and Iconography Turning Points in Irish Art The Celtic Revival: Motifs and Symbols The Celtic Revival: People and Landscape Week 4 The Irish Impressionists and the Belle Epoque Jack Yeats Realism, Nationalism and the West Week 5 Mainie Jellett and the Modernists Post War Trends and Contemporary Art ASSESSMENT COURSE TEXTS: Passage Grave Art Jones, C.
