The Irish Literary Tradition

The Irish Literary Tradition

J. E. Caerwyn Williams; Ford Patrick K.

University of Wales Press
1997
nidottu
Ireland is a country where for over a thousand years, one cultural force has overshadowed all others: the power of a great literary tradition. This book provides a history of literature in the Irish language from the fifth century to the twentieth. Beginning with an introduction of writing into Ireland, it traces the development of manuscripts from the early Latin records made by monastic scribes to the vernacular works of ecclesiastics and lay scholars. It shows how convention and innovation combined to produce poetry of a consistently high artistic standard within a traditional framework. The latter half of this book concentrates on the fall of the native order and a final chapter on the revival offers critical appraisals of the work of recent and contemporary Irish writers and takes up such issues as the decline of the Irish language and the future of Irish-language literature. With a wealth of references to primary and secondary sources, this book is the first comprehensive survey of Irish-Gaelic literature since the publication of Douglas Hyde's "Literary History of Ireland" in 1899.

Challenges the mainstream understanding of BRICS and US dominance to situate the new global rivalries engulfing capitalism BRICS is a grouping of the five major emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. Volume five in the Democratic Marxism series, BRICS and the New American Imperialism challenges the mainstream understanding of BRICS and US dominance to situate the new global rivalries engulfing capitalism. It offers novel analyses of BRICS in the context of increasing US induced imperial chaos, deepening environmental crisis tendencies (such as climate change and water scarcity), contradictory dynamics inside BRICS countries and growing subaltern resistance. The authors revisit contemporary thinking on imperialism and anti-imperialism, drawing on the work of Rosa Luxemburg, one of the leading theorists after Marx, who attempted to understand the expansionary nature of capitalism from the heartlands to the peripheries. The richness of Luxemburg's pioneering work inspires most of the volume's contributors in their analyses of the dangerous contradictions of the contemporary world as well as forms of democratic agency advancing resistance. While various forms of resistance are highlighted, among them water protests, mass worker strikes, anti-corporate campaigning and forms of cultural critique, this volume grapples with the challenge of renewing anti-imperialism beyond the NGO-driven World Social Forum and considers the prospects of a new horizontal political vessel to build global convergence. It also explores the prospects of a Fifth International of Peoples and Workers.

We have come to know that our ability to survive and grow as a nation to a very large degree depends upon our scientific progress. Moreover, it is not enough simply to keep 1 abreast of the rest of the world in scientific matters. We must maintain our leadership. President Harry Truman spoke those words in 1950, in the aftermath of World War II and in the midst of the Cold War. Indeed, the scientific and engineering leadership of the United States and its allies in the twentieth century played key roles in the successful outcomes of both World War II and the Cold War, sparing the world the twin horrors of fascism and totalitarian communism, and fueling the economic prosperity that followed. Today, as the United States and its allies once again find themselves at war, President Truman’s words ring as true as they did a half-century ago. The goal set out in the Truman Administration of maintaining leadership in science has remained the policy of the U. S. Government to this day: Dr. John Marburger, the Director of the Office of Science and Technology (OSTP) in the Executive Office of the President, made remarks to that effect during his 2 confirmation hearings in October 2001. The United States needs metrics for measuring its success in meeting this goal of maintaining leadership in science and technology. That is one of the reasons that the National Science Foundation (NSF) and many other agencies of the U. S.

The modern legal library is caught in a transformative stage. Often seen by firm management as unnecessary and outdated, legal libraries are facing a double-pronged challenge: it is now essential for librarians to demonstrate the continuing value of their profession whilst battling with shrinking budgets and the development of new, disruptive technologies that are transforming working practices and processes at a rapid rate.

Law firm practice group leadership is not for the faint hearted. As firms compete increasingly at practice group level, leaders are being asked to run their groups like business units; to develop and implement a strategic plan that supports the goals and competitiveness of the firm; and to coordinate and lead their partners to enhance the efficiency, performance, and profitability of their groups. Many firm leaders complain that some of their group heads are not producing the results they want to see. But how many practice group leaders receive the tools and support they need to succeed in this critical role? How many are selected for demonstrable leadership skills? And how often are they held accountable for how well – or otherwise – they perform in the role? With contributions from a wide range of experts, this second edition of Effective Practice Group Leadership explores these key questions and more, building on the first edition with new insights and thought leadership. The book examines the position of the practice group leader (PGL) in law firms today, the challenges of the role, and the changes to it, innovations and how modern practice groups are changing, and demonstrates the enormous contribution PGLs can make to the profitability and performance of their law firms, when armed with the tools and the authority.

Författarna tecknar ett friluftsliv i förändring som begrepp, företeelse och som ett empiriskt och vetenskapligt fält. Här diskuteras bland annat hur det forskas kring begreppet, man redovisar enkätstudier i ämnet, gör en kvantitativ analys av friluftslivet liksom man beskriver och tecknar de sociala mönstren. Även barns möten med natur, det friluftsliv som sker nära tätorterna och naturupplevelsernas ekonomiska värde undersöks. Och vilka nya aktiviteter av friluftsliv finns? Vidare diskuteras när friluftsliv blir naturturism. Skillnaden mellan kvantitativ och kvalitativ metod i friluftsforskningen med exemplet bär- och svampplockning granskas. Boken illustreras med foton och diagram. En rad kunniga skribenter deltar, alla med förankring i universitets- och högskolemiljöer. Bokens redaktörer är: Peter Fredman är professor i naturturism vid ETOUR, Mittuniversitetet i Östersund. Klas Sandell är professor i kulturgeografi vid Karlstads universitet. Marie Stenseke är professor i kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi vid Göteborgs universitet.

Education has become too narrowly focused on academic success and future earning potential. But creative schools and individual teachers are finding ways, new and old, to reverse this trend. From kindergarten to university, writers in this issue of Plough step back to look at education as the holistic task of forming healthy, responsible, passionate humans, and share success stories from the front lines. On this theme: Alex Sosler on innovative schools where students learn a trade and study the humanities. Brit Frazier on becoming a local volunteer firefighter. Peter Gray on why free play is essential. Anthony Garces-Foley on why he chose to teach in a public school. Stephanie Ebert on reading children scary fairy tales. Patrick Tomassi on Lernvergnugenstag, when teachers get to teach what inspires them. Tim Maendel on a public high school that raises deer and fish. Phil Christmas on why everyone still needs literature. Benjamin Crosby on how Christian teaching gets passed on. Frederick K. S. Leung on why math is not merely instrumental. Also in this issue: Rabbi Meir Soloveichik on hearing God in the subway. Grace Hamman on Sister Penelope, mentor to C. S. Lewis. Paul Coleman on religious persecution in Nicaragua and Finland. Reviews of Edwidge Danticat’s We’re Alone, John Inazu’s Learning to Disagree, and H. G. Parry’s The Magician’s Daughter. New poems by Claude Wilkinson.
