The Irish Universities Act 1908 was a historic piece of legislation, formally closing a turbulent chapter in Irish third level education and opening a new and innovational chapter: establishing two separate universities, one in Belfast, replacing the old Queen’s College of the Royal University, the other with its seat in Dublin, a federal university comprising the Royal University colleges of Dublin, Cork and Galway, re-structured as Constituent Colleges of the new National University of Ireland. -

Howard J. Garber Letter Collection This Collection Was the Gift of Howard J
Howard J. Garber Letter Collection This collection was the gift of Howard J. Garber to Case Western Reserve University from 1979 to 1993. Dr. Howard Garber, who donated the materials in the Howard J. Garber Manuscript Collection, is a former Clevelander and alumnus of Case Western Reserve University. Between 1979 and 1993, Dr. Garber donated over 2,000 autograph letters, documents and books to the Department of Special Collections. Dr. Garber's interest in history, particularly British royalty led to his affinity for collecting manuscripts. The collection focuses primarily on political, historical and literary figures in Great Britain and includes signatures of all the Prime Ministers and First Lords of the Treasury. Many interesting items can be found in the collection, including letters from Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Robert Browning Thomas Hardy, Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, King George III, and Virginia Woolf.

Echi Classici Nell'opera Di Seamus Heaney
UNIVERSITA’ DEGLI STUDI DI PARMA Dottorato di ricerca in Filologia Greca e Latina (e fortuna dei classici) Ciclo XXVIII L’Orfeo d’Irlanda: echi classici nell’opera di Seamus Heaney Coordinatore: Chiar.mo Prof. Giuseppe Gilberto Biondi Tutor: Chiar.ma Prof. ssa Mariella Bonvicini Dottoranda: Lidia Sessi Indice Introduzione p. 2 Capitolo I: La tradizione classica in Irlanda p. 7 Capitolo II: In difesa della poesia p. 56 Capitolo III: L'Orestea d'Irlanda p. 97 Capitolo IV: Il rito della sepoltura tra Grecia classica e Irlanda moderna p. 146 Capitolo V: Vergilius redivivus p. 190 Appendice p. 253 1 Introduzione In considerazione del notevole numero di studi sull'opera di Heaney, pare opportuno che ogni nuovo lavoro dichiari la propria raison d'être. In altre parole, sembra necessario precisare quale contributo si presuma di offrire alla comprensione del percorso poetico di Heaney, anche in rapporto alle monografie e ai saggi esistenti. È il poeta stesso a indicare la chiave di lettura che meglio consente di cogliere il senso profondo della sua ricerca estetica ed etica. Nel componimento “Out of the Bag” il narratore richiama l'attenzione su “the cure / By poetry that cannot be coerced”1. Riassumendo in questo verso le qualità fondamentali dell'arte poetica, Heaney mette in luce i tratti distintivi della sua produzione, sempre alla ricerca, fin dalle prime prestazioni, di una mediazione fra le pressioni socio-politiche del mondo esterno e la volontà di mantenere intatto il potere terapeutico del medium poetico. Lo scopo di questa ricerca è quello di affrontare la lettura, o rilettura, delle poesie di Heaney, come egli stesso suggerisce in “Squarings XXXVII”: “Talking about it isn't good enough / But quoting from it at least demonstrates / The virtue of an art that knows its mind”2. -

Volume 2, Issue 1, Bealtaine 2003
TRISKELE A newsletter of UWM’s Center for Celtic Studies Volume 2, Issue 1 Bealtaine, 2003 Fáilte! Croeso! Mannbet! Kroesan! Welcome! Tá an teanga beo i Milwaukee! The language lives in Milwaukee! UWM has the distinction of being one of a small handful of colleges in North America offering a full program on the Irish language (Gaelic). The tradition began some thirty years ago with the innovative work of the late Professor Janet Dunleavy and her husband Gareth. Today we offer four semesters in conversational Gaelic along with complementary courses in literature and culture and a very popular Study Abroad program in the Donegal Gaeltacht. The study and appreciation of this richest and oldest of European vernacular languages has become one of the strengths and cornerstones of our Celtic Studies program. The Milwaukee community also has a long history of activism in support of Irish language preservation. Jeremiah Curtin, noted linguist and diplomat and the first Milwaukeean to attend Harvard, made it his business to learn Irish among the Irish Gaelic community of Boston. As an ethnographer working for the Smithsonian Institute, he was one of the first collectors of Irish folklore to use the spoken tongue of the people rather than the Hiberno-English used by the likes of William Butler Yeats and Lady Gregory. Jeremiah Quinn, who left Ireland as a young man, capped a lifelong local commitment to Irish language and culture when in 1906, at the Pabst Theatre, he introduced Dr. Douglas Hyde to a capacity crowd, including the Governor, Archbishop, and other dignitaries. Hyde, one of the founders of the Gaelic League that was organized to halt the decline of the language, went on to become the first president of Ireland in 1937. -
Sweeney Astray and the Notebook Draft Seamus Hean
The Politics of Metaphor in Heaney’s Sweeney Astray I. Heaney’s Sweeney: Sweeney Astray and the notebook draft Seamus Heaney began translating the Middle Irish romance Buile Suibhne after moving south to Wicklow to work on his poetry full-time, in the summer of 1972.1 Forty or so pages into the notebook in which the project was first drafted, along the top of a page of miscellaneous notes, Heaney wrote in sprawling, green-ink capitals: LEFT ULSTER MYSELF / ALLEGORY. 2 These words lend credence to the commonly-held view, partly promulgated by Heaney himself, that the story’s protagonist – Suibhne, a king of Ulster driven mad during battle and transformed into a bird, who travels throughout Ireland reciting verses about his plight – first appealed to Heaney as an alter ego of sorts. Which elements of Suibhne’s case most struck a chord, however, is debatable. Sweeney’s defiant reappearance in the ‘Sweeney Redivivus’ section of Station Island the year after Heaney’s ‘version from the Irish’, Sweeney Astray, was published in 1983, suggests that the figure appealed to Heaney as a symbol of release from social and political obligations. Heaney’s claim in an interview of 2002 that Sweeney Astray came about because he ‘wanted an excuse to write about rain, wet, woods and trees’ points, further, to a desire to frame his translation of Buile Suibhne as not only the story of a figure freed from political ties, but itself a retreat from politics.3 Much in Heaney’s early draft, however, and his running commentary on it, suggests an urge to contribute to wider political debate, and consider the political implications of writing poetry. -

Notes CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION: MAKING HISTORY? 1. Irish Times, Weekend Section, September 3, 1994. 'Ceasefire' has sub sequently been reprinted in Longley's collection The Ghost Orchid (London: Jonathan Cape, 1995, p. 39). The poem continues Longley's discovery in the classics, and in Homer particularly, of passages and incidents pertinent to the present. His collection before The Ghost Orchid, Gorse Fires (London: Seeker & Warburg, 1991), also contains moving, freely translated excerpts which press upon events in the North of Ireland. 2.
