  • Carnaval Do Galway the Brazilian Community in Gort, 1999-2006
    Irish Migration Studies in Latin America Vol. 4, No. 3: July 2006 www.irlandeses.org Carnaval do Galway The Brazilian Community in Gort, 1999-2006 By Claire Healy Gort Inse Guaire, or Gort, lies just north of the border with County Clare in south County Galway in the West of Ireland, and has a population of about three thousand people. It is situated between the Slieve Aughty mountains and the unique karstic limestone landscape of the Burren, in the heartland of the countryside made famous by Lady Augusta Gregory and the poet W.B. Yeats in nearby Coole Park and Thoor Ballylee. Nineteenth- century Gort was a thriving market town providing a commercial centre for its fertile agricultural hinterland. A Sabor Brasil shop on Georges St., Gort market was held in the market (Claire Healy 2006) square every Saturday, and sheep, cattle and pig fairs were held regularly. A cavalry barracks accommodating eight British officers and eighty-eight soldiers was situated near the town and the Dublin and Limerick mail coaches trundled along the main street. [1] Throughout the nineteenth century and into the twentieth, day labourers congregated on the market square in the centre of town hoping for a day’s seasonal work on a farm. By the 1990s, the town had become a quiet and sparsely populated shadow of its former self. Many of the shops along the main street, Georges Street, were shutting their doors for the last time, and the town was familiar to most Irish people only as a brief stop on the bus route from Galway to the southern cities of Cork and Limerick.

DESCRIPTORS *Art Expression; Class Activities; *Classroom Techniques; *Cultural Context; *Foreign Countries; Interdisciplinary Approach; Learning Activities; *Poetry; Secondary Education; Student Educational Objectives; Teacher Developed Materials; Units of Study IDENTIFIERS Ireland; *Yeats (William Butler) ABSTRACT This curriculum unit, designed for grades 7-12, integrates various artistic disciplines with geography, history, social studies, media, and technology. This unit on William Butler Yeats, the writer, and Jack Yeats, the painter, seeks to immerse students in a study of the brothers as voices of Ireland and as two of the most renowned artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The unit is dedicated also to helping students see how the outlook of an age controls cultural expression, and how this expression is articulated in similar ways throughout genres of art. To help effect these major goals, focus in the unit is placed on: the impact of geography, place, and family on both William Butler Yeats and Jack Yeats; the influence of personalities of the time period on the two artists;.

  • Intersections Between Sound, Self, and Nation in the Poetry of Yeats Co
    1 Hybrid rhythms, antithetical echoes, and autopoiesis: Intersections between sound, self, and nation in the poetry of Yeats Connor Stratton Candidate for Honors in English DeSales Harrison, Thesis Advisor Spring 2013 2 So many thanks to my advisor, DeSales Harrison, for his generosity and direction every step of the way. 3 Introduction Between extremities Man runs his course; A brand, or flaming breath… —“Vacillations” Sounds A poem, too, vacillates “between extremities”: between eye and ear, page and voice, “brand” and “flaming breath.” It lives itself liminally between writing and speech, reading and listening. While the Odyssey or the Ramayana represent the extreme of the oral tradition, and Eugen Gomringer’s Silencio or ee cumming’s [the(oo)is] suggest visual or graphic hyperbole, most poems exhale somewhere in the middle. Yet, despite this prevalent vacillation, current critical attention on poetry’s aural features and possibilities is scant. Marjorie Perloff, in her introduction to The Sound of Poetry / The Poetry of Sound, remarks: … however central the sound dimension to any and all poetry, no other poetic feature is currently as neglected. Indeed, the discourse on poetry today, largely fixated as it is on what a given poem or set of poems ostensibly “says,” regards the sound structure in question … as little more than a peripheral issue, a kind of sideline (1-2). The collection of essays that follow in The Sound of Poetry all constitute their own intervention to this “neglected” area of study, and all privilege sound as its root of inquiry. It is in the spirit of these essays that I make my own intervention.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Colby Quarterly by an authorized editor of Digital Commons @ Colby. Derrickson: Pindar and Yeats: The Mythopoeic Vision Pindar and Yeats: The Mythopoeic Vision by ANN L. DERRICKSON ROM THE Greece of Pindar to the Ireland of Yeats, 2,300 years canle Fcoursing down the riverbed of history, washing over the widening delta of poetry, leaving layers of political context and literary convention. Yet a shape emerges, despite the shifts of eras and of nations, a form fun­ damental to the lyric. Thinking about the two poets together, then, helps produce an understanding of what is basic to and defines the genre oflyric poetry. Its nature is not specifically a matter of theme but a relationship of reference; action serves to describe spirit. As in Yeats's phrase from "The Circus Animals' Desertion," the prime concern is "Character isolated by a deed." Because it is on this plane of human spirit that meaning distills from the works of Pindar and Yeats, their writing shares the label "lyric." For both poets the vital creative tension exists between a given occasion and its associated images, rather than between concepts of present and past or fact and fantasy.
