This Christmas offering looks back to the archive and presents the full version of this memorable reading and conversation with Dr Margaret Kelleher.

Produced by The Shaking Bog in collaboration with Coillte Nature and Mermaid Arts Centre.

In this episode I'm joined by Dr Richard Jorge Fernández, who researches into the nineteenth-century Irish Gothic, especially the short story. We talk about how his interest in Irish literature began, and also about his current project which compares Galician literature and Irish literature, due to his own roots, and the similarities in these regions. We think about the issues colonial countries face, as well as immigrants and second-generation immigrants. Specifically, we consider how language comes into play, such as conflicting feelings about parent languages, how people react to hearing different accents, all of which play into the Othering concept. We discuss how these ideas were present in both 19th century contexts and today, and the importance of recognising privilege, and how literature can challenge this.About my guest: Richard Jorge Fernández received his BA in English Studies at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) and later on proceeded to enhance his knowledge in the field of literature with an MA in Anglo-Irish Literature and Drama at University College Dublin, where his minor thesis on the relation of Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and the Gothic tradition was supervised by Declan Kiberd. He completed his PhD at the University of Santiago de Compostela researching the relationship between the short story and the Irish Gothic tradition in the writings of James Clarence Mangan, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and Bram Stoker. He is currently teaching at the Department of Philology in the University of Cantabria.

In this special episode Alice, Lex and Adam geek out with the man who—Joyce aside—has probably been cited more than any other in our podcast: Professor Declan Kiberd. Professor Kiberd is the author of Ulysses and Us: The Art of Everyday Living, as well as the introduction to the Penguin Classics official partner edition.Buy Ulysses and Us: https://shakespeareandcompany.com/I/9780571242559/ulysses-and-us-the-art-of-everyday-living*In Ulysses and Us, Declan Kiberd argues that James Joyce's Ulysses offers a humane vision of a more tolerant and decent life under the dreadful pressures of the modern world. As much a guide to contemporary life as it is virtuoso work of literary criticism, Ulysses and Us offers revolutionary insights to the scholar and the first-time reader alike. Leopold Bloom, the half-Jewish Irishman who is the hero of James Joyce's Ulysses, teaches the young Stephen Dedalus (modelled on Joyce himself) how he can grow and mature as an artist and an adult human being. Bloom has learned to live with contradictions, with anxiety and sexual jealousy, and with the rudeness and racism of the people he encounters in the city streets, and in his apparently banal way sees deeper than any of them. He embodies an intensely ordinary kind of wisdom, Kiberd argues, and in this way offers us a model for living well, in the tradition of the literature upon which Joyce drew in writing Ulysses, such as Homer, Dante and the Bible.Declan Kiberd is the author of Inventing Ireland: The Literature of the Modern Nation, which won the Irish Times Prize in 1995. It is one of the most influential works on Irish culture published in the last twenty years. His Irish Classics came out in 2000 and won the prestigious Lannan Prize in the USA. He is the Professor of Anglo-Irish Literature at University College Dublin and is a widely respected broadcaster, critic and reviewer.*A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy. Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

From your host, Marisa Goudy, word witch, writing coach, story healer, and author of The Sovereignty Knot: A Woman's Way to Freedom, Power, Love, and Magic: I started this show because I know in my bones that mythology is medicine for our modern maladies. We use the ancient stories to understand our lives all the time. Thing is, we usually just aren't aware of it. In this episode, I share my own story of my relationship to storytelling, including my early fascination with Irish culture and Celtic mythology that carried me all the way to an MA in Anglo-Irish Literature and Drama at University College Dublin. You'll hear many stories from Ireland because those stories are dear to me and are closest to my expertise, but my guests are bringing tales from their own traditions and ancestral lineages. In future seasons, I hope to cast our story net further and further and call in storytellers, characters and plots from around the globe. When you subscribe to KnotWork Storytelling, you can expect: original stories drawn from mythology and folklore, that either myself or my guest have adapted we seek to balance the material from the original manuscripts and the tales collected by folklorists with the modern sensibilities that really make these stories come alive some guests are brilliant oral storytellers who will perform their favorite pieces for you authors whose fiction draws upon ancient origin legends, heroes' journeys, and heroines' tales Explore Marisa's work and get a copy of The Sovereignty Knot : www.marisagoudy.com Follow the show on https://www.instagram.com/knotworkpodcast/ (Instagram) and join our vibranthttps://www.facebook.com/groups/knotworkpodcast ( listeners' community on Facebook).
