Tá idir dea-nuacht agus drochnuacht ann ó thuaidh maidir leis an Ghaeilge. Ar lámh amháin, tá post an Choimisinéara Gaeilge fógartha faoi dheireadh – gníomh a bhí an pobal ag fanacht air le tamall fada anuas. Ach ar an lámh eile – tá na ciorruithe ó Fhorás an Gaeilge ag dul i bhfeidhm. Ar an chéad íospartach - An scéim Scoil Spreagtha, scéim a mhúineann an teanga do pháistí bunscoile. Ar Seachtain, labhraíonn Séamas Mac Eochaidh, Bainisteoir Polasaí Oideachais le Gael Linn, faoin buille tubaisteach seo don Scoil Spreagtha, agus le ról an Choimisinéara Gaeilge fógartha anois, pléann an t-iriseoir Ciarán Dunbar fiúntas an róil.

Ag cur síos ar na comórtais Scléip agus Siansa – tá na spriocanna ag teannadh linn le cur isteach ar na comórtais seo.
Ar an meán, itheann duine amháin os cionn 1000 béile in aghaidh na bliana - bíodh siad leo fhéin, i gcomhluadar cairde, agus ithe béilte beir leat nó sa mbaile le teaghlach.

Ag inse faoi chomórtas Scléip Ghael Linn a bhéas ar líne i mbliana
This week's guest on 'The Fair Green' is Galway camogie legend Therese Maher. Her 17-year quest for All-Ireland championship glory was documented both domestically and nationally but she did receive her deserved happy ending in 2013 when the Tribesmen finally won back the O'Duffy Cup. All-Ireland success at club level eluded her despite appearing in three finals. But with five All-Stars, four county titles, player of the year awards, minor, Gael Linn, Kilmacud 7s and leagues, Maher's CV is rivalled by few of her peers. She chats to SportsDaz about her career, Blue Peter and her place in Galway camogie royalty. And Therese also names her 'Fantastic Four' here on 'The Fair Green' **'The Fair Green' broadcasts every Tuesday on sportsdaz.ie **Catch our new show 'SportsDaz Camogie' every Thursday. **Theme Song - 'National Duality' (c) josephmcdade.com/music #SportsDaz

Today we are joined by Seán Crosson, leader of the Sport and Exercise Research Group at NUI Galway, co-director of the MA in Sports Journalism and Communication, and Professor at the Huston School of Film and Digital Media. He is also the author of Gaelic Games on Film: From Silent Films to Hollywood Hurling, Horror, and the Emergence of Irish Cinema (Cork University Press, 2019). In our conversation, we discussed the first depictions of Gaelic Games on film; American and British portrayals of hurling and Gaelic football that popularized and subverted Irish stereotypes; the role of the Gaelic Games in promoting Irish Nationalism, and the contemporary subversion of conservative notions of Irishness through representations of the games since the 1960s. Along the way, we discussed numerous popular films such as Knocknagow (1918), The Quiet Man (1952), and The Wind that Shakes the Barley (2006). In Gaelic Games on Film, Crosson traces out the use of Irish sports in Irish, American, and British cinema. His analysis engages with different kinds of cinema, including dramas, silent and horror films, as well as non-fiction accounts in documentaries and newsreels. Many of these accounts challenged the normative description of hurling and Gaelic football presented by the Gaelic Athletic Association. Depictions of Gaelic games in American and British films relied upon and subverted stereotypes about the Irish, especially their supposed propensity to violence, to both situate Irish nationhood within its international context with its closest neighbours and to manage the integration of Irish migrants leaving the country in great numbers in the middle of the twentieth century. Their Irish cinema counterparts, who with few exceptions took to cinema work a little later, following the redevelopment of the Irish film industry after independence, used hurling and Gaelic football to both articulate and critique notions of Irish masculinity, religiosity, and conservativism. Here Crosson points out that the popularity and legibility of sports contributed to the development of Irish cultural institutions such as the National Film Institute of Ireland and Gael Linn, who both produced newsreels of the Gaelic Games to sell to cinemas around the country and benefitted from the popularity of those movies. Listeners interested in seeing some clips of the films in question can watch another interview with Crosson here. Crosson's work offers innovative perspectives on the interplay between histories of sport and cinema. This book will appeal to readers interested in Irish, sports, and film studies. Keith Rathbone is a lecturer at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia. He researches twentieth-century French social and cultural history. His manuscript, entitled A Nation in Play: Physical Culture, the State, and Society during France's Dark Years, 1932-1948, examines physical education and sports in order to better understand civic life under the dual authoritarian systems of the German Occupation and the Vichy Regime.
