Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course will be held exclusively in the English language. Discussions, oral presentations and written papers are to be in English only.
The course deals with the history of independent Ireland (Irish Free State, Eire, Republic of Ireland) from 1922 to accession to the EU in 1973. The first of the introductory sessions by the lecturer will begin with a brief summary of Irish history up to 1800. He will later offer a detailed overview of Irish society, culture and politics since 1900. In this initial phase students will choose the subjects of their oral/written contributions.

They will also have an opportunity to improve their spoken and written English, and to participate in discussion in a foreign language. They should make use of the lecturer's Sprechstunde (Wednesdays, 3-5 PM, Zimmer 2.17, Stiege IX) in planning their oral and written contributions, to make enquiries about the literature or to address any questions they might have.
