Welcome Letter
Dear ESSE Delegate
We are delighted to welcome you to Galway for this year’s conference of the European Society
for the Study of English. With more than 800 papers and almost 100 different sessions,
the conference promises to be busy – but also, we hope, to be stimulating, enjoyable and
rewarding.
We also hope that you find time to enjoy Galway and the west of Ireland: to visit places
associated with such writers as Joyce, Yeats, Synge and Lady Gregory and to enjoy the city’s
many cafes, pubs and restaurants. During the week ahead, you will have opportunities to
encounter the living culture of this region: to hear from new Irish writers, and to encounter
traditional Irish music and dance.
Galway has recently been named European Capital of Culture for 2020. Hosting the ESSE
conference thus provides us with a wonderful opportunity to re-affirm our place in Europe,
to share knowledge, and to build new relationships. On behalf of the organising committee,
I want to thank you very sincerely for joining us here, and we all wish you a very successful
and rewarding week’s work!

EXPLORING GALWAY
Galway City at the mouth of Galway Bay is both a picturesque and lively city with
a wonderful culture that mixes the avant-garde culture with the traditional and
a fascinating mixture of locally owned, speciality shops, often featuring locally
made crafts. Indeed local handcrafts are a feature of the entire region including
hand knits, pottery, glass, jewellery and woodwork.
The city has many relics of its medieval past and is worth taking time to explore.
It has changed considerably over the last number of years and features a
fascinating juxtaposition of new and ancient architecture. The centre of the city
is conveniently compact enough to ramble around comfortably.
For those interested in seeing some of Galway and Ireland’s best tourist
attractions, delegates will have the opportunity to purchase optional tour tickets
on their registration form.

Special Cultural Events
TUESDAY
‘A NIGHT OF SEAN-NÓS SONG AND DANCE’
Together with ESSE 2016, the Centre for Irish Studies, NUI Galway, present
a showcase performance of traditional sean-nós song and dance from the
Connemara Gaeltacht. Performers will be drawn from present and past
Sean-Nós Artists in Residence at NUI Galway, including Páraic Ó hOibicín,
Mícheál Ó Cuaig, Máire Ní Mhaoilchíarán and Róisín Ní Mhainín. The Seannós Artist in Residence scheme represents the dynamic connection between
the University and its Irish-speaking hinterland by recognising sean-nós song
and dance as highly developed art forms that are particularly strong in the
Connemara Gaeltacht, Co. Galway.
The showcase performance is free and open to conference attendees and
the general public. It takes place at 7.30pm, on Tuesday, 23 August at The
Cube, NUI Galway.
WEDNESDAY
READING BY GALWAY WRITERS MIKE MCCORMACK AND MARY
O’MALLEY
The Discipline of English will host a reading by Galway writers in the
O’Flaherty Theatre (Lecture Room 3) from 19.30-20.30. The reading will
feature Mike McCormack and Mary O’Malley. McCormack’s recent novel
Solar Bones has been described by The Guardian as “an extraordinary novel
by a writer not yet famous but surely destined to be acclaimed by anyone
who believes that the novel is not dead and that novelists are not merely
lit-fest fodder for the metropolitan middle classes.” Mary O’Malley is one
of Ireland’s leading poets. She is the author of six poetry collections – A
Consideration of Silk (Salmon, 1990); Where the Rocks Float (Salmon, 1993);
The Knife in the Wave (Salmon, 1997); Asylum Road (Salmon, 2001); A Perfect
V (Carcanet, 2006), Valparaiso (Carcanet, 2012) – and the latest, Playing the
Octopus, which will be published in Augsut 2016.

making the work of the Bard accessible to a global audience.
It features rarely seen artefacts from the Sir Kenneth Branagh Archive in Special Collections, the McClay Library

debut as Henry V with the Royal Shakespeare Company aged just 23 to his Oscar-nominated screen adaptation of
Hamlet, and beyond.
The exhibition is part of the programme, Shakespeare Lives across the Island: Conversations and Celebrations http://www.britishcouncil.ie/shakespeare-lives-across-island
