Ed. Thesis presented for the award of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) National University of Ireland, Cork Supervisors: Professor Patrick O’Flanagan, Department of Geography Mel Mercier, Department of Music September 2009 Submitted to National University of Ireland, Cork 1 Abstract The geography of Irish traditional music is a complex, popular and largely unexplored element of the narrative of the tradition. Geographical concepts such as the region are recurrent in the discourse of Irish traditional music but regions and their processes are, for the most part, blurred or misunderstood. This thesis explores the geographical approach to the study of Irish traditional music focusing on the concept of the region and, in particular, the role of memory in the construction and diffusion of regional identities. This is a tripartite study considering people, place and music. Each of these elements impacts on our experience of the other. All societies have created music. Music is often associated with or derived from places.

  • Site Synopsis
    SITE SYNOPSIS SITE NAME: MULLAGHANISH TO MUSHERAMORE MOUNTAINS SPA SITE CODE: 004162 The Mullaghanish to Musheramore Mountains SPA comprises a substantial part of the Boggeragh/Derrynasaggart Mountains in Co. Cork. It is divided roughly into two sectors by the R582 road between Macroom and Millstreet. Most of the site is over 200 m in altitude, rising to heights of 475 m in the eastern sector (Musherabeg) and 462 m in the western sector (Knockullane). Several important rivers rise within the site, notably the Foherish and Awboy. The site is underlain by Old Red Sandstone. The site consists of a variety of upland habitats, though approximately one-third is afforested. The coniferous forests include first and second rotation plantations, with both pre-thicket and post-thicket stands present. The principal tree species present are Sitka Spruce (Picea sitchensis) and Lodgepole Pine (Pinus contorta). Almost one-third of the site is unplanted blanket bog and heath, with both wet and dry heaths present. The vegetation is characterised by such species as Ling Heather (Calluna vulgaris), Cross-leaved Heath (Erica tetralix), Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus), Common Cottongrass (Eriophorum angustifolium), Deergrass (Scirpus cespitosus) and Purple Moor-grass (Molinia caerulea). The remainder of the site is mostly rough grassland that is used for hill farming. This varies in composition and includes some wet areas with rushes (Juncus spp.) and some areas subject to scrub encroachment. The site is a Special Protection Area (SPA) under the E.U. Birds Directive, of special conservation interest for Hen Harrier. This site is a stronghold for Hen Harrier. A survey in 2005 recorded 5 pairs, which represents over 2% of the all-Ireland total.

  • Múscraí Gaeltacht Conservation, Management and Interpretation Plan
    MÚSCRAÍ GAELTACHT CONSERVATION, MANAGEMENT AND INTERPRETATION PLAN PREPARED: DECEMBER, 2014 CLIENT: CORK COUNTY COUNCIL AND ACADAMH FÓDHLA RESEARCH + DIG Conservation/Heritage/Archaeology 1 Contents page 1.0 Introduction 3 2.0 Historical and archaeological profile 7 3.0 The natural heritage of the Múscraí Gaeltacht 17 4.0 Intangible heritage 26 5.0 Assessment of significance 37 2 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Background This Conservation Management and Interpretation Plan was commissioned by Cork County Council in conjunction with Acadamh Fódhla. The main aim of the project is to highlight the importance and heritage significance of the Múscraí Gaeltacht and to devise a number of heritage objectives and actions to ensure that the area is appropriately conserved, managed and maintained into the future. The word ‘Gaeltacht’ is used for areas where the Irish language is, or was until the recent past, the main spoken language. Gaeltacht areas are defined by Government order. One of them is Múscraí. 1.2 Site Identification and Profile Lying along the Cork / Kerry border, the Múscraí Gaeltacht is located 48kms to the west of Cork City (fig 1). Its population of 3,895 (CSO, 2011), represents 4% of the total number of Gaeltacht inhabitants. The Cork Gaeltacht encompasses a geographical area of 262km2. This amounts to 6% of the total Gaeltacht area. The largest settlements are the villages of Baile Mhic Íre/Baile Bhuirne and Béal Átha an Ghaorthaidh. Other significant settlements include Cúil Aodha, Réidh na nDoirí, and Cill na Martra. The landscape is dominated by numerous high craggy hills and the Derrynasaggart Mountains.

FOREWORD The untimely death of Professor Ruaidhri de Valera, on the 28th October 1978, brought to an end a fruitful association with the Ordnance Survey which had lasted for more than three decades. He was appointed Placenames Officer in the Ordnance Survey in February 1946, became Archaeology Officer the following year and served in the dual roles of Archaeology Officer and Senior Placenames Officer until he took up his appointment to the Chair of Celtic Archaeology in University College, Dublin in November 1957. Thereafter his connection with the Ordnance Survey was maintained through his constant collaboration in the production of this Survey of the Megalithic Tombs of Ireland. Ruaidhri de Valera's Celtic Studies training together with his love and understanding of the language and culture of Ireland fitted him well for the appointments he held at the Ordnance Survey and enabled him to revive and foster the traditions of scholarship established by his famous predecessors, O'Donovan, O'Curry and Petrie. Throughout his time here he was involved in research on Placenames and when the personnel of An Coimisiun Logainmneacha were attached to this Office it was under his guidance that the work was re-organised and set on its present successful course.
