- Oktatás célja
- To gain an understanding of the lesser known themes and figures in Irish political, social, cultural, and economic history through the investigation of the lives of outstanding Irish women To develop critical skills to analyse primary sources concerning women in their relevant national and global contexts and investigate their relationship to other relevant historical events concerning the Irish diaspora as well as immigrants in Ireland
- Tantárgy tartalma
- This course focuses on the changing role of women in modern Irish society in view of the transformation of political, religious, cultural, and economic life in Ireland since 1800. Through interpreting primary sources with the help of secondary sources, we will investigate the relationship between topics and themes such as Catholicism, marriage, childbearing and childrearing, food and drink history, emigration, nationalism, the Irish revolutionary decade, the two world wars, and the quest for suffrage and equal rights. In addition to discussing general articles that provide an overview of issues of key importance, we are also going to investigate the lives (and biographies) of Irish women that have been so far neglected in a national as well as in a global framework.
