subject areas: history and politics; literature and culture; migration and
the Irish abroad; contemporary Irish society. This course can be taken
either by students wishing to update or refresh their knowledge of Irish
Studies or by students wishing to accumulate a credit towards a degree
qualification in other humanities or social science programmes.

10th Anniversary Irish Writers in London Summer School
First established by the Irish Studies Centre in 1996, the summer school
runs for two nights per week for six weeks and aims to provide an informal
but informative setting for students wishing to study Irish literature over
the summer. The course consists of a mixture of lectures, seminars,
readings and cultural activities.

Each week an established Irish writer comes to read and speak about their
work to the students. Two evenings prior
to this, students read, discuss and analyse extracts of the writer’s work
with the course tutor. Students read and
learn about a broad spectrum of Irish writing including fiction,
autobiography, drama, travel writing and poetry
and gain valuable insights into the different approaches
such types of writing involve.


Our special guest writer at the Summer School in
2005 will be Edna O’Brien.
