No other small nation has influenced world history as much as Ireland. Combining stories, poetry, music, language, literature and film, this course delves deep into Ireland’s rich history and culture. A lot of things about Ireland are small; its entire army is the size of one US Army division; and its population is less than that of New York City. Yet no other small nation has influenced world history as much as Ireland. Combining stories, poetry, music, Irish language, literature and film, this course delves deep into Ireland's rich history and culture, from Presidents to St. Patrick, from Nobel Prize-winners to rock stars, with many fascinating surprises along the way, all helping to show what makes this small nation so special. Learning objectives: - To understand the course of Irish history, both what is conventionally known and what might be surprising to the average person. - To understand Irish culture beyond superficial stereotypes and in all its richness and complexity.
