HIST 274: Love & Sex in Modern Irish History<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This course introduces students to the urban and rural landscapes of two Irelands – the Free State\/Republic, and Northern Ireland – through histories of love and sex from 1884 to 2018. Students consider histories of marriage, prostitution, same-sex desire, and bodily autonomy, and how the built and imagined environment shaped possibilities, dangers, and everyday experiences of love and sex. The course culminates in original research projects utilizing the archives only accessible by visiting Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the course is built around getting to know and use the National Archives of Ireland, the National Library of Ireland, the Public Records Office of Northern Ireland, and various small town archives\/libraries, students have a unique opportunity to conduct original research on site. In addition to the power of learning about a place\u2019s history while standing in the place where that history happened, this course revolves primarily around empowering students to conduct original primary source research in a range of topics in love and sex history in Ireland. The best place to do archival research in history is in the actual archives. Nothing compares to carefully paging through filthy archival documents that you know no one else has looked at in 100 years. Further, the history of sexuality (or rather, histories of sexuality) remain a major gap in Irish studies. The work students will be conducting in Ireland has the potential to impact the field. The original research we\u2019ll do in this class may well be ground-breaking – a feat only possible if pursued in the archives of Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Antiochia Archaeological Research Project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever wanted to do collaborative, funded Humanities, Scientific and Artistic research with faculty and fellow students from around the globe? Would you like to do that research in an exotic locale of turquoise seas and banana plantations? Can you imagine being the first person in 2000 years to touch an object?  Would you like to create NEW<\/strong> primary sources and be responsible for finding the artefacts that go into museum displays? Would you like to work in a rural Turkish village on a cliff 1000 feet above the sea? If so, then I invite you to join my field lab as an intern at the Antiochia Archaeological Research Project<\/a> on the southwestern coast of Turkey. Watch this short video to get a sense of what we do<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
