Comment l’expliquer ? Est-ce le paysage, tantôt accueillant et parfois empreint d’une redoutable beauté ? La réponse se trouve- t-elle parmi ses innombrables témoins silencieux d’une longue et riche histoire: ses dolmens et tumulus mégalithiques, ses fortins circulaires de l’époque celtique, ses milliers de petits châteaux médiévaux en ruine ? Ou alors peut-être dans son folklore encore si vivant, et pourtant millénaire, ses sources d’eau sacrée, ses arbres aux fées, ses fêtes païennes et son église celtique… Ce programme puise son essence dans tous ces aspects de l’Irlande à la fois. Et pour vous accompagner dans cette aventure initiatique, votre guide est un authentique «seanachai» : un conteur de la tradition orale irlandaise, dont les récits se transmettent depuis l’époque des bardes !

    IRELAND & SCOTLAND 2009/10 www.BrendanVacations.com 15th-century Ross Castle overlooks the Lower Lake in Killarney 2 | www.BrendanVacations.com Welcome Dear Traveler, Taking a vacation to Ireland and Britain is exciting! Wouldn’t it be great if you knew someone who has personally been there to guide you though the experience? For over 40 years, Brendan has been helping travelers plan, book and enjoy their special vacation. Whether it’s on your own, with a guide and a group of like-minded travelers, or a combination of the two, we will help you make it the vacation of your dreams. It starts with your reservation. One of our experts will personally handle all the details, make sure you have the information you need, share ‘insider’ destination secrets and answer your questions. When it comes to Ireland and Britain, my father and I know this part of the world intimately (some would say, better than anybody). My father grew up in Dublin, and I have visited many times, plus we’ve both been to England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales on numerous occasions. We have explored it all, from the famous ‘must see’ sights to little out-of-the-way local favorites. When we design our tours, we do so with the same care and thought that we use for our own personal vacations. Britain and, especially, Ireland hold a very special place in our hearts, and we look forward to sharing them with you. “Taking You Personally” is more than our slogan. It’s the way we want to be treated….so it is the way we want to treat you and every Brendan traveler.

  • 3 Failure, Guilt, Confession, Redemption? Revisiting
    Journal of Psychosocial Studies Volume 10, Issue 1, May 2017 Failure, guilt, confession, redemption? Revisiting unpublished research through a psychosocial lens MARCUS FREE Abstract This article offers some critical reflections on a case of failure to bring a qualitative research project to completion and publication earlier in the author’s career. Possible explanations are considered in light of insights derived from the ‘psychosocial’ turn in qualitative research associated particularly with Hollway and Jefferson’s Doing Qualitative Research Differently (2001/2013). The project was an interview-based study of the life experiences of middle aged and older Irish emigrants in England, conducted in the late 1990s in Birmingham and Manchester. The article considers the failure as a possible psychic defence against the anxiety that completion and publication would be a betrayal of the interviewees, many of whom described experiences distressing to themselves and the interviewer. The psychoanalytic concepts of ‘transference’ and ‘countertransference’ are used to speculate as to the role of the unconscious at work in the interview encounters and how, despite class and generational differences, psychodynamic fantasies relating to both interviewees’ and interviewer’s migration histories and experiences may have impacted upon each other. Introduction Many researchers leave unfinished projects behind them and experience varying degrees of regret and uncertainty as to the reasons for reluctance or inability to bring the research to fruition. This article concerns a qualitative research project from earlier in my career that never reached completion and remains a source of guilt and shame for me. It revisits the research critically using a psychosocial lens in an attempt to identify and consider the possible underlying reasons for this failure.

  • Ruins, Runes and Tunes
    2020 Spirit of Ireland: A Healing Journey Ruins, Runes and Tunes Glenveigh Castle, Glenveigh National Park, County Donegal, Ireland Tour Dates: June 13-24, 2020 Tour Destination: This year’s trip will take us to County Donegal (with a day in County Antrim and the Giant’s Causeway) to see many magical sights which we don’t normally visit on the Spirit of Ireland Tours, as well as immerse in the wonderful Irish culture. This is a tour NOT to be missed. What Makes Our Tours So Special: We come together on this sacred pilgimage as a group of healers, from all walks of life, to bring healing energies of love and compassion to the energetic Celtic ley lines (also known as farie lines) located at various sacred sites in Ireland. We participate in several sacred ceremonies including poetry, music, meditation and songs to connect heart to heart in this most magical place called the Emerald Isle. Traditional music is a big part of this tour, for the most authentic Irish expereince. People often say that traveling to Ireland is like stepping back in time to a land steeped in rich culture, history and spirituality; a less rushed lifestyle in a magical setting, where people meet you with a smile and a twinkle in their eye. Everyone who has traveled with us on previous excursions describes this trip as a life-changing event in their lives; the memories and friendships forged will last a lifetime. Tour Itinerary: Our tour itinerary is still being finalized, but sights on the agenda include the Beltane Stone Circle, Glenveagh National Park, Slieve League, Giant’s Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, Dunluce Castle, Leo’s Tavern, and lots of great traditional Irish music.
