| Program Name: |
International Summer School in Irish Studies |
| Host City: |
Belfast, Northern Ireland |
| Description: |
This program is hosted by the Institute of Irish Studies and held at the historic Queen’s University Belfast. Dates for our 2004 summer school are July 19 - August 6. Lectures and seminars are given by internationally-acclaimed scholars on various aspects of the study of Ireland, including history, politics, anthropology, film and theatre, language and literature. Students will be given the opportunity to meet and have discussions with representatives of Northern Ireland’s political parties. This usually takes place at Stormont Parliament Buildings, the seat of devolved government in Northern Ireland. Meetings will also be arranged with representatives of local community groups and with Police Service of Northern Ireland. In addition, participating students will visit sites of historical and cultural interest in the northern capital itself and beyond, such as Stormont Parliament Buildings and Belfast City Hall. A fieldtrip to the Barony of Lecale and Strangford Lough visits sites of historical and archaeological interest, including the former Gaol (now Down County Museum), the burial place of Saint Patrick and the Mediaeval Cistercian Monastery at Greyabbey. Traditional learning is enhanced with fieldwork and social activity. |
