Description
Summary:The year had a vibrant start with the celebration of the VI International Seminar on Irish Studies: "An Interdisciplinary Approach to Ireland through its Music, History, Art and Literature" hosted by the Irish Studies Circle at the University of Granada (January 25-27), renowned for its interdisciplinarity and strong and inspirational team of scholars. The social programme pertinently included a visit to Almeria's air raid shelters, an intricate series of underground galleries designed to safeguard human lives during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). At the University of La Rioja, the Centre of Irish Studies Banna/Bond (EFACIS) held its VI International Seminar on Saint Patrick's Day (Irish Itinerary 2023) "Elements of Aesthetics in Constructing Form and Identity" (14-15 March), coordinated by Melania Terrazas Gallego. The programme also included the readings of award-winning playwright Marina Carr and playwright and short story writer from Belfast, Rosemary Jenkinson (thanks to the support of the EFACIS Irish Itinerary) and the book launches of Telling Truths: Evelyn Conlon and the Task of Writing (with the presence of the author) and The Poets and Poetry of Munster: One Hundred Years of Poetry from South Western Ireland.
