Required AR3100: Metal, Warfare, and Chiefdoms - The Bronze Age Roots of European Civilization AR3100: Metal, Warfare, and Chiefdoms - The Bronze Age Roots of European Civilization Semester 1 | Credits: 5 This course focuses on investigating the types of societies that occupied Europe in the Bronze Age. A range of themes will be addressed including patterns of production, exchange and interaction, the exceptional social and economic developments in the Aegean region, the role of warfare, and patterns of metalwork deposition and hoarding. Following these thematic treatments, we will investigate the nature of Bronze Age societies by focusing on how the concept of ‘chiefdoms’ has been developed and used by anthropologists and archaeologists. This will involve a close look at some Polynesian chiefdoms that have been used as interpretive models to help understand Bronze Age European societies and specific European case studies focusing on Wessex in England, Denmark, and the Munster region in Ireland. (Language of instruction: English) Learning Outcomes - Summarise and critique the salient points of a piece of archaeological writing - Critically assess the merits and demerits of various explanatory models and theories put forward regarding the nature of societies in Bronze Age Europe - Compose an organized, logical argument - Discuss how ethnographic-based models of chiefdoms have been used by archaeologists to model European Bronze Age societies - Demonstrate a developed understanding of the international context of the Irish Bronze Age - Apply knowledge of key international archaeological issues and sites Assessments - Continuous Assessment (100%) Teachers - SANDRA GETTY: Research Profile | Email - CARLETON JONES: Research Profile | Email - STEFAN BERGH: Research Profile | Email Reading List - "Prehistoric Europe" by Timothy Champion...

Required AR5100: Archaeology and Mythical Landscapes of Atlantic Ireland AR5100: Archaeology and Mythical Landscapes of Atlantic Ireland Semester 1 | Credits: 10 This field-based module explores the interplay between myth, legend and landscape in Atlantic Ireland. It introduces the student to the archaeologies and topographies of some of the landscapes that were the settings for tales in the four major cycles of early Irish literary tradition, with a special focus on the Connacht landscapes associated with tales from the Mythological Cycle, the Ulster Cycle and the Fenian Cycle. Among these are the extensive cliff-top fort of Dún Aonghasa, the mythical abode of the Fir Bolg, perched at the edge of sea cliffs on Inis Mór, Aran Islands; Crúachan and Carn Fraoich in County Roscommon and their associations with the mythical King Ailill and Queen Medb and the warrior Fraoch; The Caves of Kesh at Keshcorran and the Otherworld encounters of Finn mac Cumaill, and Queen Meabh's Cairn on the summit of Knocknarea, County Sligo. The module, which incorporates the results of archaeological surveys and excavations in these landscapes, will discuss how monuments and their settings became mnemonic pegs for tales and how they themselves may also have been the very sources of the tales. (Language of instruction: English) Learning Outcomes - Describe the archaeology of some of the renowned landscapes associated with myths and legends in Atlantic Ireland. - Discuss the range of ritual and funerary monuments that generally constitute ‘mythical’ landscapes and how they were perceived in the medieval mind. - Evaluate the influence of prehistoric archaeological landscapes on the generation and maintenance of stories about the gods and mortals in early Irish tradition.

Required AR2102: People, Ritual and Death: Life in Early Prehistoric Europe AR2102: People, Ritual and Death: Life in Early Prehistoric Europe Semester 1 | Credits: 5 This course focuses on a critical understanding of daily life in Europe during the Mesolithic and Neolithic periods. c. 10 000 BC to c. 2000 BC. The course introduces evidence from various parts of the European continent to create a context for the understanding of people’s lives in early prehistoric Ireland. One aspect of the course is to understand the reasons for the varied subsistence patterns, their development and change in different parts of Europe. Another central aspect is to critically examine the role of ritual in people’s daily life and its material expression in the treatment of the dead. The societal meaning and function of large scale monument-building that develops in the Neolithic forms another important part of the course. A theme running through the course is the focus on the interplay between social, ritual and subsistence aspects of life within people’s daily routine. The course is structured thematically illustrating the above aspects by using case studies from a wide range of chronological and geographical contexts within Europe. (Language of instruction: English) Learning Outcomes - Critically interpret the evidence for the development of prehistoric communities and societies in Europe - Discuss the evidence for the development of prehistoric societies in Ireland in a wider context - Demonstrate critical understanding of the nature of prehistoric evidence, its chronology and classification including awareness of problems in the use of classification tools - Recognise selected key artefacts and site types from the relevant periods in Europe - Interpret the interplay between ritual and daily life in prehistoric societies Assessments - Written Assessment (90%) - Continuous Assessment (10%) Teachers - SANDRA GETTY: Research Profile | Email - CARLETON JONES: Research Profile | Email - CONOR NEWMAN: Research Profile | Email - MARGARET RONAYNE: Research Profile | Email - STEFAN BERGH: Research Profile | Email Reading List - "Britain Begins" by Cunliffe Publisher: Oxford University Press - "Prehistoric Britain" by Darvill, T Publisher: Routledge - "Stone Age studies in post-glacial Europe" by Randsborg, K Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell - "Europe in the Neolithic.

Nua-Ghaeilge [Modern Irish] (MA) Expand all Course Overview Is ar an Luan agus ar an Máirt a bheidh léachtaí an chúrsa lánaimseartha ar siúl. Is ar an Luan amháin a reáchtálfar an cúrsa páirtaimseartha. Forléargas ar an gCúrsa An bhfuil fonn ort ardcháilíocht a bhaint amach i Léann na Gaeilge? An bhfuil suim agat breis scileanna taighde, anailíse agus cur i láthair a fhorbairt? An bhfuil tú ag smaoineamh ar thaighde a dhéanamh ag leibhéal na dochtúireachta amach anseo? Má tá, b’fhéidir gurb é an MA sa Nua-Ghaeilge an cúrsa duitse. Is í Ollscoil na hÉireann, Gaillimh an ceannródaí náisiúnta ó thaobh Léann na Gaeilge. Tá saineolas ag foireann Roinn na Gaeilge ar gach tréimhse de chuid na Gaeilge, ón luath-thréimhse go dtí an teanga chomhaimseartha. Tá áiseanna taighde den scoth ag an ollscoil agus rinneadh infheistíocht mhór le déanaí i gcartlanna na hollscoile, rud a thugann buntáiste ar leith don mhac léinn ar mian leis/léi taighde a dhéanamh sna bailiúcháin Ghaeilge atá againn. Tá an Ghaeltacht ar leac an dorais againn agus tá teacht ag na mic léinn ar áiseanna foghlama agus taighde den scoth sna campais Ghaeltachta atá ag an ollscoil i gConamara agus i nGaoth Dobhair. Má dhéanann tú an cúrsa lánaimseartha (bliain amháin), beidh léachtaí agus seimineáir ar siúl dhá lá sa tseachtain. Is féidir an cúrsa a dhéanamh go páirtaimseartha chomh maith (thar dhá bhliain) agus beidh léachtaí agat lá amháin sa tseachtain sa chás sin. Agus an cúrsa seo críochnaithe agat, beidh tú in ann: - Feidhmiú go cruinn ag leibhéal gairmiúil agus acadúil trí mheán na Gaeilge sa scríbhneoireacht agus sa labhairt; - Anailís chriticiúil a dhéanamh ar réimsí éagsúla de Léann comhaimseartha na Gaeilge: an Chritic Liteartha, an Chritic Chultúir agus Shóisialta agus an tSochtheangeolaíocht; - Cur chuige idirdhisciplíneach a léiriú san anailís chriticiúil ar réimsí éagsúla de Léann na Gaeilge; - Do chuid taighde agus anailíse a chur i láthair go cumasach agus go héifeachtach ag an leibhéal cuí acadúil; - Taighde nuálach, neamhspleách a dhéanamh ar shainábhar de do rogha féin agus an taighde sin a léiriú i bhfoirm tráchtais. Baineann na torthaí foghlama céanna leis an Dioplóma Iarchéime seachas nach bhfuil taighde neamhspleách i bhfoirm tráchtais le déanamh.

I mo shaol gairmiúil mar iriseoir is gá scagadh agus póirseáil a dhéanamh ar eolas. Go minic, is gá an t-eolas atá ar leas an phobail a aithint, a scaradh ó eolas eile agus a chur in iúl don ghnáthdhuine ar shlí atá sothuigthe. Tairbhe as cuimse a bhí san MA sa Nua-Ghaeilge chun mo chuid scileanna teanga agus anailíse a fhorbairt. Ba luachmhar an taithí chomh maith gur leagadh béim ar scileanna cur i láthair mar chuid den Mháistreacht. Ailbhe Nic Giolla Chomhaill | Mac Léinn PhD Thug mise faoin MA sa Nua-Ghaeilge sa bhliain 2012. Bhí mé díreach tar éis BA a bhaint amach agus ní raibh mé iomlán cinnte cén treo ina rachainn ó thaobh gairm bheatha de. Thug an MA deis dom modúil a roghnú a bhí an-éagsúil óna chéile ach a chuir ar mo chumas scileanna anailíse luachmhara a fhorbairt agus tuiscint den scoth a fháil ar litríocht agus ar chultúr na Gaeilge. Spreag an cúrsa seo dúil mhór sa taighde ionam agus shocraigh mé leanúint den taighde agus tabhairt faoi dhochtúireacht in Ollscoil na hÉireann, Gaillimh. Ní fhéadfainn tabhairt faoin dúshlán sin gan na scileanna teanga, scríbhneoireachta agus cur i láthair a d’fhoghlaim mé le linn na máistreachta. Amanda Bernhardt & Seanchán Ó Cinnéide | Massachusetts Tugadh an deis don bheirt againn an MA i Nua-Ghaeilge a dhéanamh sa bhliain 2012. Le deontas ón Choimisiún Fulbright, bhí muid in ann bogadh go Gaillimh agus tabhairt faoin iarchéim le chéile. I dtús báire, mar Mheiriceánaigh ba dhúshlán mór é na cúrsaí a dhéanamh ag leibhéal chomh hard sin os rud é nach raibh an cúlra teanga céanna againne agus a bhí ag na mic léinn eile. Thug foireann Roinn na Gaeilge neart tacaíochta dúinn, áfach, agus tá muid thar a bheith buíoch díobh uilig. Ní amháin gur saineolaithe amach is amach iad sna hábhair atá á dteagasc acu, múinteoirí agus daoine den scoth atá iontu fosta. Anois, agus muid ar ais sna Stáit, bíonn muid ag teagasc na Gaeilge sna coláistí áitiúla agus ag stiúradh comhráite beo i nGaeilge ar líne. Bhí taithí ar dóigh againn i nGaillimh.
