SUMMARY:Rage\, Resistance and a Rejection of Resignation
DESCRIPTION:Ireland has long had a tradition of rebellion\, with resistance being a refusal to accept the condition we find ourselves in. Art can speak to power by subverting the rational and opening up new possibilities. Can writers and artists dream new worlds into existence that can stand against a monolithic globalized corporate consumer society? Emer Martin’s darkly comic work examines power and the abuse of it. Her characters have always been like the dogs howling at the edge of town. Emer reads from a selection of her work and opens up the conversation of what role artists can play in the new culture of rage and resistance in these darkly turbulent times.

SUMMARY:How The Irish Won The West
DESCRIPTION:The historical focus on the Irish diaspora in the U.S. has always been on the east coast. Often ignored is the legion of ‘two boat Irish’ who made their way into the vast American West. These included fur trappers\, miners\, soldiers\, gangsters\, and prostitutes. A fair sprinkling made vast fortunes\, and a good proportion found their way to California. In his book How the Irish Won the West\, Myles Dungan has disinterred many of these narratives. If they weren’t verifiably true\, you probably wouldn’t believe most of them.\nMyles Dungan is an Irish historian\, broadcaster\, playwright and novelist. He is the author of a number of books on Irish and American history\, holds a PhD from Trinity College\, Dublin\, has taught in U.C. Berkeley as a Fulbright scholar\, and presents the weekly History Show on Irish National Radio (RTE). \nMyles will be introduced by Tony Bucher\, President of the Irish Literary & Historical Society. \nMartin Hayes’ soulful interpretations of traditional Irish music are recognized the world over for their exquisite musicality and irresistible rhythm. He has toured and recorded with guitarist Dennis Cahill for over twenty years\, and has collaborated with extraordinary musicians in the classical\, folk and contemporary music worlds including Bill Frisell\, Ricky Skaggs\, Jordi Savall\, Brooklyn Rider and the Irish Chamber Orchestra as well as many of the greatest Irish musicians over the past thirty years. Martin has contributed music\, both original and traditional arrangements to modern dance\, theatre\, film and television. He has performed on stage with Sting and Paul Simon and recently recorded with Yo Yo Ma’s Silk Road Project.
