The Galway Rambler: Anthony Raftery And The Roots Of Irish Cultural Identity, Caroline O'Shea
The Galway Rambler: Anthony Raftery And The Roots Of Irish Cultural Identity, Caroline O'Shea
English Student Scholarship
My project looks at the impact of Anthony Raftery, a 19th century blind poet and fiddle player from Co. Mayo, Ireland, on Ireland’s cultural landscape upon his ‘discovery’ by Irish writers Lady Augusta Gregory and Douglas Hyde, and his influence upon E. B. Yeats. Explorations of Scottish folk collections and Homeric influences upon Raftery’s poetry and the art of folk music preservation are also examined.
Accounting For Justice: Entitlement, Want And The Irish Famine Of 1845-7, Warwick N. Funnell
Accounting For Justice: Entitlement, Want And The Irish Famine Of 1845-7, Warwick N. Funnell
Warwick Funnell
Societies are founded on some understanding of justice, however objectionable the dominant meanings of justice may be perceived by those not favoured. All laws of government emanate from this essential feature of social relations for no government will survive without the assistance of significant force if it is not able to convince a sufficient number of citizens that their society is just. For David Hume, Aristotle and Adam Smith justice was first among all the virtues. Smith stipulated that "(j)ustice ... is the main pillar that upholds the whole edifice. If it is removed ... the immense fabric of human …

The Emigrant Of An Gorta Mór: The Emigration Experience Of Cornelius Delaney During Ireland's Great Famine Of 1845-1850, Sarah Nelson
Antonian Scholars Honors Program
‘The Emigrant of An Gorta Mόr,’ describes the emigration experience of my ancestor, Cornelius Delaney, during Ireland’s Great Famine of 1845-1850. The Great Famine, known in Gaelic as ‘An Gorta Mόr’ (the Great Hunger), began in 1845, when the fungus Phytophthora infestans infected the potato crop in Ireland. During the years of the Famine, Ireland lost nearly half of its population to starvation, disease and emigration. In the format of an annotated, historical fiction piece, ‘The Emigrant of An Gorta Mόr,’ presents the experience of Cornelius and the Delaney family during the Famine in Ireland and Cornelius’s experience in emigrating …

The Rising Threat Of Food Security; A Keynesian Solution To A Global Problem, Auour Heoinsdottir
Dissertations and Theses
"Is food security a threat to Global security? Recent history suggests so. After all, since 1947 the international community has struggled to implement agreements on agriculture in the name of preserving peace. Most recently, in the last of the Doha Development Round negotiations, efforts have been made to enhance food security (with measures such as equal access to resources, trade liberation, and the removal of tariffs for developing countries). In my thesis I will explore both the theory of these policies and their efficacy in practice. More specifically, I will examine the limitations of past policies (such as ""anti-dumping"") aimed …

Comments On The Potter's Field: Burial Policy In New York City, Jason N. Summerfield
Comments On The Potter's Field: Burial Policy In New York City, Jason N. Summerfield
Jason N Summerfield
For some time now, the cost and utility of a potter’s field allowed municipal mass graves to exist, to the detriment of the moral stakes involved. As the pragmatic becomes less so, the moral consequences of mass internments in a potter’s field should become more persuasive on those that decide how municipal burials are conducted. The current state of affairs, consisting of an economic and a moral crunch, necessitates a clarification and transition away from current methods. It is possible to accept that an appropriate response to the three ‘criticisms’ of the institution: 1) availability of information regarding the operations …
