By many accounts, there has been a Gaeilge renaissance underway in recent times. The number of Gaeilge-medium primary and secondary schools (Gaelscoileanna) has grown throughout the 1990s and into the twenty-first century, the year 2003 saw the passage of the Official Languages Act (laying the groundwork to assure all public services would be made available in Gaeilge as well as English), and as of January 2007 Gaeilge has become a working language of the European Union.

  • Irish Kinship - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia 5/28/10 2:59 PM
    Irish Kinship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 5/28/10 2:59 PM Irish Kinship From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Irish Kinship is a system of kinship terminology (descended from the original Celtic practices) which shows a Bifurcate Collateral pattern. This system is used by a minority of people living in the Gaeltacht regions of Ireland. Irish kinship terminology varies greatly from English kinship as it focuses on Gender and Generation, with less emphasis on differentiating lineal vs. collateral.[1][2] Contents 1 Terminology 2 Use of Terminology 2.1 Aintin and Uncail, Nia and Neacht 2.2 Col Gaolta 2.3 Mo Mhuintir 3 References Terminology Irish Kinship is limited to a small number of words of Gaelic origin used in identifying relatives. Máthair - Mother Athair - Father Mac - Son Iníon - Daughter Deantháir - Brother Deirfiúr - Sister Aintin - Aunt Uncail - Uncle Nia - Nephew Neacht - Niece Seanmháthair - Grandmother Seanathair - Grandfather Garmhac - Grandson Gariníon - Granddaughter Col Gaolta - Cousin[3] Use of Terminology A majority of the terms used in the kinship system are similar to the English kinship system, but the terms for aunty, uncle, nephew, niece and cousin have a far vaguer and different use. These terms however varying in degree of use as this system is confined to the Gaeltacht regions of Ireland, and hence are not widely used http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Kinship#Terminology Page 1 of 2 Irish Kinship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 5/28/10 2:59 PM among other members of Irish society[4] Aintin and Uncail, Nia and Neacht Aintin is the word for Aunt and Uncail for Uncle but in the Irish kinship system Aunt and Uncle have a wider definition, in common kinship an Aunt/Uncle is the sister/brother of either the mother or the father.

  • Status and Exchange in Early Irish Laws1
    Status and Exchange in Early Irish Laws1 Riitta Latvio Department of Comparative Religion, University of Helsinki, [email protected] tatus is one of the key concepts for understanding early Irish society. Status is important because the functioning of the society was based on contract•like relationships between individuals and groups. Status governed their capacity to enter into contracts and their rights and S obligations in them. The value of a man’s testimony in court depended on his status. Compensations for injuries, killing or other crimes were calculated according to the status of the victim and his kinsmen and lord. Furthermore, status defined the proper conduct towards people of different rank. The relationship between status and exchange is an intricate one. The status differences and the functioning of the society become visible in situations involving personal exchange. Status governs how different groups interact with each other, what kind of mutual rights and obligations are expected from them. The bonds created by reciprocal relationships actually form the structure of the society. Descent and wealth are usually mentioned as the main sources of status in early Ireland. The law•texts themselves, however, refer to other more immaterial requirements for soliciting a high status. In this paper I search through some of the most important law•texts on status for different arguments by which status can be claimed, and furthermore, lost. The latter part of the article is devoted to drawing a picture of reciprocal relationships in early Ireland, i.e. what kind of exchange, both material and symbolic, is involved, and what part status plays in these relationships.

  • Cultural Identity Represented: Celticness in Ireland
    Ethnologie Cultural identity represented: Celticness in Ireland Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Philosophischen Fakultät der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität zu Münster (Westf.) vorgelegt von Sabine Hezel aus Oberhausen 2006 Tag des Abschlusses: 16.11.2006 Dekan: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dr. Wichard Woyke Referent: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Josephus D.M. Platenkamp Korreferent: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Andreas Hartmann Acknowledgements I would like to express my thanks to all the people in Ireland who gave me valuable assistance in the researching of this thesis. First of all I want to thank Ann Tighe and Claire Sheridan. Without their friendship and help in distributing questionnaires and introducing me to a number of people, my stay in Galway would have been a lot less informative (and less pleasant). Thanks also to all the people who filled out questionnaires and were willing to give interviews. I am especially grateful for the opportunity to work in my own office, which was provided by the Department of Political Science and Sociology of the National University Ireland, Galway, and the help that was provided by Dr. Niall O Dochartaigh. Special thanks also to my PhD tutor Prof. Dr. J. Platenkamp. His continually constructive and helpful critique substantially contributed to the completion of this thesis. But above all my thanks go to Dave Hegarty. His love, patience and understanding were an inexhaustible source for strength and support. Ohne die Hilfe meiner Eltern, Anne und Johann Hezel, wäre es mir nicht möglich gewesen, ein Jahr in Irland zu verbringen. Ihnen gilt daher mein ganz besonderer Dank. Ohne ihr stets wohlwollendes Verständnis und ihre Unterstützung wäre diese Arbeit nicht zustande gekommen.
