Modern architecture for the Roman Catholic Church in the twentieth century could be experimental, transgressive or progressive, comforting or shocking; sometimes it appeared within a culture of intense theoretical and theological dialogue between architects and clergy, and sometimes it challenged orthodoxy and innovated at the fringes of the Church’s complex structure. This symposium seeks to present new research on specific manifestations of these larger historical currents.

SYMPOSIUM: Honest to Blog: Blogging Legitimacy
Friday, March 4, 2011 at 10am to 4pm
Neill/Hoey Lecture Theatre, Trinity Long Room Hub
This symposium is a follow up to last year’s ‘Blogging the humanities’. One of the topics that came out of last year's symposium as a central area of concern was the legitimacy of blogging as a medium. What is the status of a blog? What use is it to those engaged in arts and humanities research and practice? Should blogs be seen as legitimate teaching, research and outreach tools? The day will consist of two sessions and a roundtable, in which speakers who have used blogging in a variety of contexts will give their perspectives and respond to questions. There will be plenty of time for discussion. The event is open to all and we especially encourage non-academic members of the blogosphere, blogging skeptics and aspiring bloggers to attend. All welcome. A nominal fee of approximately 10 euro to defray costs of coffee and lunch will apply.

LECTURE: Materiality and Display: Ireland in America at the end of the Nineteenth Century, Fintan Cullen
Friday, February 4, 2011, at 4pm
Lecture Room G6, School of Art Design and Printing, DIT, 41 Mountjoy Square, Dublin 1
Fintan Cullen is Professor of Art History at the University of Nottingham. He has written extensively on aspects of Irish art and Irish representation and the talk he will give at DIT is part of a new book to be published in the next year on aspects of the politics of display as they affected Ireland in the nineteenth century. The book will be entitled Ireland on Show and he is interested in the tensions involved in the display of an art of union in the nineteenth century and an art that represented a growing sense of indigenous nationhood. This paper looks at two examples of Ireland on show in the United States in the late nineteenth century: the still-life work of the Cork-born painter William Harnett and the display of Ireland at the Chicago World Fair in 1893.
All are welcome to this free event, but places are limited.

The IMC is held in Leeds every July, and attracts more than 1600 medievalists from around the world every year. The IMC is unique in that it welcomes papers in any major European language and the international nature of the Congress is central to its culture.
The IMC 2011 special thematic strand ‘Poor...Rich’ is poised to discuss the spectrum of medieval wealth, from the most affluent to the most humble and all stages in between. Sessions explore a range of topics including: How uneven was the distribution of wealth in medieval communities and polities? How was wealth amassed and then redistributed? What were the topographies of wealth and poverty? How permeable were the physical and symbolic boundaries between rich and poor? How did church and secular authorities deal with the moral and practical problems arising from poverty and the uneven distribution of wealth?
In addition, there will be a number of special lectures at IMC 2011. The opening keynote lectures will be by Robin Fleming (Boston College, Massachusetts) on ‘Scavenging and Its End in the Early Medieval Britain’ and Samuel K. Cohn (University of Glasgow) on ‘Rich and Poor in Late Medieval Europe: The Political Paradox of Post-Plague Economics’. On Wednesday evening, Christopher Dyer (University of Leicester) will present a keynote lecture on ‘The Experience of Being Poor in the Later Middle Ages: The Pauper’s Perspective’.
The IMC comprises a four-day programme of sessions, workshops, round tables, and special lectures and is complimented by an exciting range of excursions, workshops, concerts and performances, receptions, bookfairs, craft and historical society fairs, and the Congress dance.The International Medieval Congress Registration can now be completed online!
