Course overview This is an exciting interdisciplinary programme, devised by the departments of English, History (both ranked in the top 50 in the world in the 2014 QS World University Rankings) and Irish in collaboration with the departments of Geography, History of Art and Film/Drama. This programme offers a unique opportunity to study outside the traditional academic disciplines and to experience the integration, creativity and freedom associated with an interdisciplinary education while still taking courses in established subjects such as History and English. The emphasis throughout is on the interaction between Ireland and the wider world, including specific courses in British, European and American history and literature. Irish studies provides you with a very diverse range of options, thus guaranteeing a rich and rewarding educational experience, which will stand you in good stead in a competitive employment market that is demanding increasing flexibility. There are two distinct strands in the Irish studies programme: Strand A - All of the courses in this strand are taught through the medium of English. Note 1: There are no special entry requirements for Strand A. OR Strand B - This strand contains a number of Irish language modules. Note 2: Applicants who wish to choose this strand must attain at least a grade HC3 in Leaving Certificate Irish or a grade C in A-level Irish. Students choose one strand (A or B) after admission to the Irish studies programme. Is this the right course for you? If you have an interest in the history, literature, and culture of Ireland in a broad, interdisciplinary, comparative, global context then this is the programme for you. Students are encouraged to avail of the full range of academic opportunities provided by Trinity. For example, students on this programme have successfully competed for the Trinity Foundation scholarship and chosen to study abroad in their third year in Europe on the Erasmus programme or in the United States. Course content There will be a mixture of compulsory courses in years 1-3 and optional courses in the final year, allowing you to specialise in areas where you have developed particular interests. Course details are available on our website at www.tcd.ie/courses/irishstudies. Assessment throughout the four years consists of both continuous assessment and examination. You will also write a dissertation in your final year. Courses include: Strand A All courses in this strand are taught through the medium of English.

Career opportunities Graduates in Irish studies take a diverse range of career paths, where the interdisciplinary nature of the programme provides a distinct advantage in fields such as teaching, journalism, arts and heritage administration, the civil service, the diplomatic corps, publishing, media work, translation services, and public relations. Many of our graduates are pursuing postgraduate degrees at institutions including Trinity, Edinburgh, Oxford, Durham, UCD, Queen’s University (Belfast), and University of London. Others are already employed as teachers, in cultural heritage fields, and at RTÉ. Irish Studies is an accredited degree programme with the Teaching Council for the following subjects – Strand A: English and History, Strand B: Irish and History.

Being able to attend the premier university in Ireland in the centre of Dublin and study Irish history, literature, language and culture is a unique experience. The location allows easy access to sites of historical and literary significance, enabling you to experience first-hand what you are studying in the lecture hall. The interdisciplinary nature of the course is one of the most amazing aspects of Irish Studies, as you can explore several avenues of study simultaneously across different disciplines - politics and poetry, history and linguistics, geography and culture. Instead of limiting yourself to one subject, you can focus on a wide range of topics while you pursue your studies, thereby heightening your appreciation of multiple subjects studied in tandem. It is an excellent and rewarding academic challenge. One of my favourite aspects of this course, which I believe is unique to Trinity, is that many of the leading scholars of Irish studies are on staff at Trinity and are often course lecturers. It is truly remarkable to read a book in the library and to have the option, as an undergraduate, to run upstairs and ask the author of that book a question. The expertise that is available at Trinity in support of this course makes Irish studies exceptional. Alison Meagher: I chose Irish studies because it provided a much broader choice of my subjects of interest than many other Arts programmes. I hoped that experiencing such a wide range of studies would give me a far better grounding for when I would eventually come to choose a career path or a field of further study. Throughout the past four years our class has had an unrivalled academic experience and we've always been really lucky in that, year on year, we've been able to choose classes which suit our interests and abilities and our lecturers have always been on hand to give much-appreciated guidance. Irish studies has also afforded us the opportunity to take our learning out of the classroom with several field trips to places of cultural and historical interest around the country as well as a two-month residency in the Gaeltacht. I feel that Irish studies allowed me the chance to take my degree in the direction which best suited me as well as providing a fantastic platform for further study and training. Caitlín Nic Íomhair: Though I didn't consciously look for an interdisciplinary course, Irish studies was the obvious choice when I found it. I was excited by the idea of studying my own culture intensely and widely. I knew I wanted to study the Irish language, and had considered both English and History as possible subjects to complement it. Though on paper Irish studies might look like a Three Subject Moderatorship, the program's greatest strength is how the different strands interact closely with each other. Combining knowledge from the other disciplines provides a fresh perspective on each, and put together they give us a detailed understanding of Irish culture. As well as closely studying three related subjects, Irish studies is unique in combining them in a fourth, collaborative element which uses them for a broader, critical study of perspectives and experiences of Irishness. It is very interesting to see how the three core subjects challenge and support each other. While the interdisciplinary process can be challenging and provocative, the result is a reflective understanding of Irish culture firmly rooted in the language, literature and history of the country. This enriches our understanding of each discipline, and gives us a unique and informed perspective of the nation as a whole. Paul Smith (Mature student): I retired from business in June 2009, and wanted to remain intellectually and socially engaged. I considered a number of options and decided on Irish studies. I wanted to return to Trinity, which has the finest campus in Ireland, and a reputation for academic challenge and excellence. I also felt a strong need to complete my education. I had a reasonable basic knowledge of Irish language, history and literature, but knew there were immense gaps to be filled. The last 2 years have vastly exceeded my expectations. Lectures, seminars and tutorials have been consistently engaging. Working with my student colleagues of all ages has been a vastly rewarding experience. Tutorials with small numbers of students are a powerful means of engaging with material in depth; the dialogue between lecturer and students is a great way to deepen and contextualise understanding. Broad Curriculum choices allowed me approach material that is not offered on the Irish studies programme as such. There is a compelling sense that the academic staff takes a personal interest in our wellbeing and development, which makes the learning process enjoyable and rewarding. I would strongly recommend the course.

Early Irish component Early Irish can be studied either in combination with one other subject as part of a two-subject moderatorship (TSM) programme or in the single honour Early and Modern Irish programme (TR022). What is Early Irish? Early Irish is the language in use in Ireland from the earliest period for which there are records up to the year 1200. The course covers the language and literature from the emergence of writing at the arrival of Christianity in Ireland to the production of the great saga manuscripts of the twelfth century. Is this the right course for you? If you are interested in acquiring a reading knowledge of Medieval Irish, in which the great saga literature of our manuscripts was written, this is the course for you. Why study Early Irish at Trinity? The Irish department at Trinity has a long history of excellence in the study of Early Irish and continues to engage in research at the highest level. The staff are recognised as experts in their respective fields and many former students are now teaching in Irish universities. You will enjoy small class sizes and a friendly atmosphere which past students have always said was a hallmark of the Trinity Irish Department experience. You may also avail of the option to study Medieval and Modern Welsh in Wales in your third year. Trinity is home to the twelfth-century Book of Leinster, one of the most important manuscripts of Irish literature and learning to have survived from the Medieval period. What will you study? The Early Irish course, which is taught through the medium of English, covers the history of the Irish language from its first appearance on the Ogam inscriptions at the dawn of the Christian era in the fifth century, to the highly polished language of the sagas and law texts preserved in the medieval manuscript collections held in the libraries of Trinity, the Royal Irish Academy and the National Library, all within a five-minute walk of Trinity. You will investigate the Celtic and Indo-European origins of Irish. You will come to know the great characters of Early Irish literature, including the tragic Deirdre, the doomed Conaire, the irresistible but irritable Cú Chulainn, the hopelessly infatuated Muirchertach and many more. You will explore the Pagan and/or Christian character of the literature as well as topics such as kingship, the heroic biography and the sovereignty goddess. FIRST AND SECOND (FRESHMAN) YEARS In the first two years you will study the basics of Old Irish. At this stage you will read most literature in translation but you will be introduced to the original texts gradually and you will see how the language emerged and developed through the early Christian period. THIRD AND FOURTH (SOPHISTER) YEARS In third and fourth year the horizons are expanded; your study of the history of the language will take you back to its Celtic origins and forward to the dawn of Modern Irish. At this stage you will be reading prose and poetry as well as law and history in the original language, and a special course in palaeography will teach you how to read the manuscripts themselves. Third year students may opt to spend a term in Aberystwyth learning Medieval and Modern Welsh. ASSESSMENT Assessment is by exercises and essays submitted during the year as well as end-of-year examinations. In the final year you will also research and write a dissertation. Careers Some students of Early Irish pursue independent research in the subject with a view to teaching at third-level. Most follow a career in teaching or journalism, especially Irish-language related media. Library archiving, the public service, marketing, business, interpreting and translation all figure in the profiles of past students.An Nua-Ghaeilge Is féidir Nua-Ghaeilge a dhéanamh i dteannta le hábhar eile sa Mhodhnóireacht Dhá Ábhar (TR001) nó i dteannta le Luath-Ghaeilge sa Mhodhnóireacht aon-onóra (EMI TR022). Sa dá chóras seo déantar staidéar ar an dá ábhar ar feadh trí bliana agus roghnaítear ceann amháin den dá ábhar don cheathrú bliain. Bronntar céim onóra sa dá ábhar. Cad is brí le Nua-Ghaeilge?’ Tugtar ‘Nua-Ghaeilge’ ar an teanga ón mbliain 1200 go dtí an lá atá inniu ann. Sa chúrsa seo léitear litríocht ó gach cuid den tréimhse agus déantar staidéar ar fhorás na teanga lena linn. Déantar staidéar speisialta freisin ar Ghaeilge an lae inniu agus ar Ghaeilge na hAlban. An é seo an cúrsa duitse? An mbaineann tú taitneamh as Gaeilge a labhairt? An maith leat an Ghaeilge a scríobh is a léamh? An bhfuil tú ag iarraidh go mbeidh an ghaeilge timpeall ort gach lá? Más mian leat barr feabhais a chur ar do chumas sna réimsí sin, seo an cúrsa duitse. Cén fath a roghnófá an Nua-Ghaeilge i gColáiste na Tríonóide? Tá cáil ar fhoireann Roinn na Gaeilge sna goirt ina bhfuil siad ag obair mar scoláirí agus iad ag foilsiú leo go rialta. Chomh maith leis sin, tá an-cháil ar an Roinn as a bheith cairdiúil, rud a thaitníonn go mór lenár gcuid mac léinn. Bíonn líon na mac léinn beag go leor le go mbíonn sé éasca do na mic léinn aithne a chur ar a chéile. Tá Cumann Gaelach na mac léinn an-ghníomhach ar fad; tá scéim chónaithe lánGhaelach a bhfuil an-tóir uirthi sa Choláiste. San iomlán, is geall le mionGhaelacht i lár na príomhchathrach sinn. Cad a bheidh á fhoghlaim agat? Is trí mheán na Gaeilge a mhúinfear do chúrsa. Foghlaimeoidh tú faoi gach gné den Nua-Ghaeilge: ón bhFiannaíocht sa 13ú haois go Máirtín Ó Cadhain agus Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill sa lá atá inniu ann. Cuirfidh tú go mór le do chumas i labhairt agus scríobh na Gaeilge, agus déanfaidh tú staidéar foirmiúil ar cheartúsáid na teanga. Beidh deis agat freastal ar léachtaí faoi: scéalaíocht na seanré, stair shóisialta na teanga, an béaloideas, filíocht na scol, an Fhiannaíocht agus an nualitríocht ar fad, .i. gearrscéalta, drámaíocht, úrscéalta, dírbheathaisnéisí agus filíocht. Caithfidh tú dhá mhí sa Ghaeltacht in Éirinn mar chuid de do chúrsa. Sainghné speisialta de chúrsa na Nua-Ghaeilge i gColáiste na Tríonóide ná gur anseo amháin a bheidh seans agat trí bliana a chaitheamh le Gaeilge na hAlban (a’ Ghàidhlig). Beidh seans agat, más mian leat, tréimhse a chaitheamh i nGaeltacht na hAlban freisin. AN CHÉAD BHLIAIN AGUS AN DARA BLIAIN Sa chéad bhliain agus sa dara bliain, díríonn an cúrsa ar na hábhair seo a leanas: scileanna i labhairt agus scríobh na teanga, an cheapadóireacht, an t-aistriúchán, stair shóisialta na Gaeilge, an Ghaeilge Chlasaiceach, an nualitríocht, Gaeilge na hAlban. AN TRÍÚ BLIAIN AGUS AN CEATHRÚ BLIAIN Sa tríú bliain agus sa cheathrú bliain, díríonn an cúrsa ar na hábhair seo a leanas: ardscileanna teanga (labhartha agus scríofa), an cheapadóireacht agus an t-aistriúchán ag leibhéal níos airde, agus Gaeilge na hAlban. Foghlaimeoidh tú conas lámhscríbhinní a léamh (cúrsa sa phailéagrafaíocht) agus léirmheastóireacht chriticiúil a dhéanamh ar scéalaíocht na seanré. Ina theannta sin, déanfaidh tú rogha cúrsaí sa Nua-Ghaeilge Mhoch, sa litríocht bhéil, i nualitríocht na Gaeilge agus/nó nualitríocht Ghaeilge na hAlban. MEASÚNÚ Déanann gach mac léinn cleachtaí scríofa gach seachtain mar chuid den mheasúnú leanúnach; bíonn aistí le scríobh go tráthrialta, agus béaltriail agus scrúduithe scríofa ag deireadh na bliana. Sa cheathrú bliain, déanann mic léinn taighde neamhspleách agus scríobhann siad miontráchtas. Postanna Tá réimse an-leathan gairmeacha ag daoine a rinne Nua-Ghaeilge anseo. Ina measc tá cuid mhaith múinteoirí, iriseoirí (sna meáin Ghaeilge go háirithe) agus daoine le postanna eile sna meáin – teilifís, ceol, beochan, raidió agus an t-idirlíon. Tá borradh tagtha ar líon na ndaoine a fhaigheann postanna mar ateangairí agus aistritheoirí, cuid acu siúd thar sáile. Tá léachtóirí ollscoile agus leabharlannaithe againn chomh maith, agus iarmhic léinn eile ag obair sa tseirbhís phoiblí, le gnó agus le margaíocht.

Specific Entry Requirements Student Profile Christina Cleary When I first embarked upon third level education I found the whole thing quite daunting, yet within a few weeks of lectures in Early Irish I was completely at ease. The staff are among the most learned academics in the field and are prepared to support and help each individual student to progress to their full potential. Among the many boons of being part of Roinn na Gaeilge is that the student is presented with multi-dimensional facilities, networks and access to the major works housed in Trinity's Manuscript Department, in the Royal Irish Academy and in the National Library. Próifíl ar chéimí le Nua-Ghaeilge Marie Ní Bhraonáin (Nua-Ghaeilge, Drámaíocht) Is mise Marie. Is as Gaillimh mé. Tháinig mé go Coláiste na Tríonóide chun staidéar a dhéanamh ar na nGaeilge agus ar an Drámaíocht. Bhí suim agam i gcónaí teacht anseo tar éis na hArdteiste. Labhraím Gaeilge le mo mhuintir féin agus, i ndáiríre, is Gaeltacht bheag atá lonnaithe anseo i Roinn na Gaeilge. Táim thar a bheith sásta gur éirigh liom cúrsa Gaeilge a dhéanamh anseo. Ní fhéadfainn smaoineamh ar fhoireann teagaisc níos díograisí nó níos deise ná foireann Roinn na Gaeilge. Cothaíonn said grá ionainn go léir don Ghaeilge agus tugtar spreagadh dúinn chun seoid ár n-oidhreachta a chaomhnú agus a fhorbairt chuile lá.
