+ Evangelio de nuestro Señor Jesucristo según san Lucas 1, 46-56María dijo entonces:«Mi alma canta la grandeza del Señor, y mi espíritu se estremece de gozo en Dios, mi Salvador, porque él miró con bondad la pequeñez de su servidora. En adelante todas las generaciones me llamarán feliz, porque el Todopoderoso ha hecho en mí grandes cosas: ¡su Nombre es santo! Su misericordia se extiende de generación en generación sobre aquellos que lo temen. Desplegó la fuerza de su brazo, dispersó a los soberbios de corazón. Derribó a los poderosos de su trono y elevó a los humildes. Colmó de bienes a los hambrientos y despidió a los ricos con las manos vacías. Socorrió a Israel, su servidor, acordándose de su misericordia, como lo había prometido a nuestros padres, en favor de Abraham y de su descendencia para siempre.»María permaneció con Isabel unos tres meses y luego regresó a su casa.Palabra del Señor.

Local author and historian Colm Liddy was back in the studio for the final segment of the year. This week, Colm brought us back to Christmas in Clare, 100 years ago.
December 2009. Colm is an investigative reporter for RTÉ, assigned to the story of an enormous ghost estate called 30 Acres. Only three inhabitants remain on this barren wasteland; Holly, Glenn and Iseult. Holly is an entrepreneur intent on re-launching her salon as an alternative tourist venture - the world's first ghost estate tour. Glenn loves the freedom of life on the vacant estate, hunting otters in the moonlight. Iseult has finally found the seclusion she craves. But the developer of this unfinished housing project, Sean Granite, is bankrupt. A government-appointed liquidator, Alistair Crowe, is on the scene, with dastardly plans to evict Holly, Glenn and Iseult. It seems like their days on the 30 Acres estate are numbered. Or are they?CastBarbara Bergin, (Iseult)Shane Casey (Glenn)John Colleary (Sean)Philippa Dunne (Pat)Barry Murphy (Alistair)Stefanie Preissner (Holly)Colm Tobin (Colm)Aidan O'Donovan (TV Presenter/Priest)Produced by Kevin Brew for Drama On One with Kevin Reynolds and Gorretti Slavin.

The transformation of the Labour Party by 1997 is among the most consequential political developments in modern British history. Futures of Socialism overhauls the story of Labour's modernisation and provides an innovative new history. Diving into the tumultuous world of the British left after 1973, rocked by crushing defeats, bitter schisms, and ideological disorientation, Colm Murphy uncovers competing intellectual agendas for modern socialism. Responding to deindustrialisation, neoliberalism, and constitutional agitation, these visions of 'modernisation' ranged across domestic and European policy and the politics of class, gender, race, and democracy. By reconstructing the sites and networks of political debate, Futures of Socialism: ‘Modernisation', the Labour Party, and the British Left, 1973–1997 (Cambridge UP, 2023) explains their changing influence inside Labour. It also throws new light on New Labour, highlighting its roots in this social-democratic intellectual maelstrom. Futures of Socialism provides an essential analysis of social democracy in an era of market liberalism, and of the ideas behind a historic political reconstruction that remains deeply controversial today. Colm Murphy is a historian of modern British and Irish politics and political economy at Queen Mary University of London. He has published on 1970s-80s social democracy (including its political culture, evolving electoral strategy, and economic policymaking) and on Irish labour relations and nationalism in the 1910s. His more recent work has focused on the politics of economic policy, including Keynesianism, austerity, trade, and currency. Since 2018, Colm has worked for the Mile End Institute and is currently its Deputy Director. Jacob Ward is a historian at Maastricht University, the Netherlands. He has written in the history of science and technology, environmental history, business and financial history, and political history. He recently published Visions of a Digital Nation: Market and Monopoly in British Telecommunications (MIT Press, 2024) and he's currently working on a history of futurology in the United Kingdom and Europe from 1945 to the present day.

Colm Tóibín – jeden z najwybitniejszych i najbardziej lubianych współczesnych irlandzkich pisarzy – opowie w tym odcinku Raportu o książkach o tym, jak powstają jego powieści.Czasem przypomina to pracę kompozytora, który muzykę symfoniczną musi sprowadzić do kameralnego dźwięku smyczków.Pomysł czy wizja mogą zaskoczyć pisarza na środku ulicy, ale potem czeka go mozolny proces podejmowania decyzji dotyczących brzmienia i znaczenia każdego kolejnego zdania.Colm Tóibín opowie też, kiedy autor czuje potrzebę, by ponownie odwiedzić bohaterkę swojej książki.W powieści „Brooklyn” Eilis Lacey w wieku dwudziestu kilku lat wyjechała ze swojego rodzinnego miasta w Irlandii do Ameryki.W kolejnej, zatytułowanej „Long Island”, starsza o 25 lat bohaterka wraca do domu.„Brooklyn” i „Long Island” to przejmujące powieści o doświadczeniu irlandzkich i włoskich imigrantów osiedlających się w Nowym Jorku w drugiej połowie XX wieku, o szukaniu tożsamości, odcinaniu korzeni, samotności i wiecznym dryfowaniu.Prowadzenie: Agata KasprolewiczGość: Colm TóibínKsiążki: „Brooklyn” i „Long Island” Colma Tóibína / przekład: Jerzy Kozłowski / Dom Wydawniczy Rebis---------------------------------------------Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiakSubskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ➡️ https://dariuszrosiak.substack.comKoszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/ [Autopromocja]

Colm was born and raised in Clondalkin, Dublin, and attended Naíonra Chrónáin, Scoil Chrónáin & Coláiste Chillian. Colm's love for the language grew after spending time in East Timor, teaching English. East Timor is a multilingual country and experiencing that got him asking why we make such a song and dance about bilingualism in Ireland! When he came home he studied communications and worked with the Irish language newspapers Lá and Gaelscéal. He now works in the non-profit sector. While he was working in journalism he started writing about myths we often hear about the Irish language, that it's a dead language, etc. He later developed that into a Mythbusting campaign with Conradh na Gaeilge which has included a TedX Talk and other public talks, articles in the Irish Times and Journal.ie, interviews on Raidió na Gaeltachta, Raidió na Life, Raidió Fáilte, RTÉ Radio 1 and BBC Radio and YouTube videos. He believes these myths have a real, negative effect on the Irish language and that is the main reason for the campaign.
