05 Greek Tragedies and Irish Politics: Classical Influences & Irish Culture
11 NOV 2019 · Podcast series from the Centre for Irish Studies at the University of Aarhus. Isabelle Torrance is a professor at Aarhus University and director of the project "Classical Influences and Irish Culture". Ireland has a very special relationship with Classics that goes back more than 1000 years. During the bloody conflict in Northern Ireland, a number of authors - including Seamus Heaney - interpreted Greek tragedies in modern theater settings and were thus able to express strong attitudes to the conflict under the cover of classic tales written 2500 years earlier. Also featured in this podcast is Barry McCrea, professor at the University of Notre Dame. www.clic.au.dk
04 Magdalene Laundries and the Maze Prison: Digging in the Uncomfortable Past
11 NOV 2019 · Podcast series from the Center for Irish Studies at Aarhus University. Laura McAtackney is Associate Professor of Archeology at Aarhus University. Unlike most other archaeologists, she does not dig in the past - but in the present. What becomes heritage? What can we remember and what do we tend to forget? Laura McAtckney's research has brought her to Irish prisons and institutions such as a Magdalene Laundry in Ireland and the Long Kesh Maze prison in Northern Ireland.
03 The Catholic Church and the Magdalene women
20 GIU 2019 · I 2013 the Irish government had to issue a formal apology to the thousands of women who had been abused by the religious orders at the Magdalene Laundries. Why - and how - did the Catholic Church manage to a make fortune without any interference from public authorities, while they systematically abused vulnerable women? Associate Professor Katherine ODonnell of University College Dublin is the principal investigator of the Magdalene Oral History Project and tells about the Magdalene women isn this podcast.
02 Northern Ireland on film: Who gets to tell whose story?
20 GIU 2019 · For over 30 years, Arthur MacCaig, documented the Northern Irish conflict. Meanwhile, his son Donal Foreman grew up in Dublin. After MacCaig's death, the idea for the documentary film "The Image You Missed" emerged, interweaving the story of a son's attempt to get to know his late father, with the history of Northern Ireland's conflict. Father and son's recordings show two very different approaches to Irish nationalism, the role of images in a political struggle, and the competing claims of personal and political responsibility. In this way, an exciting cinematic work arises about the role of documentary film director in a political conflict: Which stories do you tell about the conflict - and which stories do you avoid telling? This is what “The Image you Missed” is about.
01 How do we commemorate the past? The Easter Rising is still relevant for today's politics
20 GIU 2019 · Lance Pettitt, who is Associate Research Fellow at Birkbeck, University of London, has done intensive research on how the Easter Rising was commemorated by RTÈ in 1966. Why is it interesting to study the way in which a nation commemorates important historical events? In the 'decade of centenaries', Ireland is commemorating events that led to political independence from Britain, but also to civil war and partition of Ireland. You might even say, that there IS a connection between the Easter Rising and Brexit. So what happened more than 100 years ago is still quite relevant for today’s politics.
