Les recordamos a l@s alumn@s que utilizan el blog por primera vez que nos servimos de programas gratuitos para subir los archivos, programas que no siempre funcionan bien en sus versiones gratis. Si no pueden bajar los documentos por favor insistan hasta lograrlo.
Asimismo, para quienes no estén habituados a esta modalidad, les informamos que la cátedra y los estudianets utilizan el blog casi a diario una vez que la cursada está por comenzar y ya en marcha.
En cuanto al CD de bibiografía, pueden utilizar el del año pasado pero la información que tenemos ahora cabe sólo en un DVD. Debemos superar nuestro desconocimiento personal para grabar un DVD de datos que nos permita poner a disposición de los estudiantes el material electrónico. Como ven, los docentes tenemos mucho que aprender...
Hacia fines de febrero/principios de marzo podrán ver este programa desplegado en nuestro Calendario Google de actividades para el primer cuatrimestre 2011.
Les solicitamos que toda consulta o comentario respecto de la cátedra se realice únicamente a través de este blog.
¡Nos vemos el 9/3!

History in MC & Wind by P. Erdicoborda
Jordan’s Michael Collins represents events in Irish history from 1916 to 1923 by exploring the birth of the Irish Free State and the struggle for Independence through the life of its most representative leader. For its part, Loach’s production The Wind that Shakes the Barley examines the War of Independence and the onset of the Civil War though the private life of two brothers. As Jordan and Loach belong to different historical traditions, they illustrate historical events differently: while Jordan stresses the role of individuals, Loach conceives history as an impersonal process that shapes the life of individuals.
In Michael Collins, the focus is on the character. At the beginning of this cinematographic production the audience is told that the period covered in the film was defined by Michael Collins. In this light, the changes in history are presented as the result of the Irish leader’s actions. Moreover, in Jordan’s work, Collins, Bolland, and De Valera are portrayed as the ones who struggle in order to make Ireland free from the British Empire. After the Anglo-Irish Treaty is signed, this political triangle is broken since Collins favors the Treaty and Bolland and De Valera disapprove of it. Even after this rupture, the main focus of the film is still on Michael Collins who is portrayed as the principal causal agent in the fighting for Irish Independence.
For its part, The Wind that Shakes the Barley exhibits a conception of history as a process in which the characters’ lives are shaped by their context. For instance, Damian – one of the main characters – sacrifices his professional career as a doctor in order to join his brother Teddy in the struggle for freedom. Then, after the Anglo-Irish Treaty is signed, the brothers find themselves confronted in a Civil War since Teddy favors the Treaty and Damian rejects it. Therefore, these two men who had fought side by side during the struggle for independence become enemies in the Civil War. In this light, The Wind that Shakes the Barley portrays how history changes the life of individuals and how their choices are shaped by the historical context they live in.
In brief, even though both cinematographic productions revisit Ireland`s past, the way in which history is conceived by the directors is different. Michael Collins highlights the role of the individual in the making of history while The Wind that Shakes the Barley shows how historical events transform community life.

Imelda`s Silence by P. Pereira
In William Trevor´s novel, Fools of Fortune, Imelda, Willie and Marianne´s daughter, is portrayed as a special child. On the one hand, the girl can be seen as the flawed offspring of these two cousins. On the other hand, she can also embody the virtues of a saint who has a holy mind. Her immersion in past tragic events could have caused her mental condition and subsequent muteness. However, her very same handicaps seem to be responsible for her gift of performing miracles, according to the view of her local community and of her parents. In this light, Imelda´s silence can be considered as “positive, even redemptive and saintly.”
From an early age, Imelda had been exposed by her mother to a flow of stories related to Irish political and religious conflicts. These tales mingled wars, family tragedies, historical accounts, and Celtic mythodology. As a result, Imelda became so overwhelmed and obsessed with these past atrocities, that she eventually became deeply deranged. When she felt that she could no longer escape her reality, Imelda became silent for life. At this point, her family and the local community virtually canonized her as a saint, even those at her Catholic school who had used to despise her for being a Protestant.
From then on, Imelda was seen as holy child, who had the power to perform miracles. For instance, she would cure a woman of dementia and a man of cataracts. Her serene smile was considered as an indication of her joy and her silence as the healer of collective atrocities of the past—of Willie´s guilt for his own act of violence and abandonment of his family, and of her family´s past wounds. In this way, Imelda´s silence would mitigate other people´s suffering caused by public and private tragedies.
In short, Imelda can be seen as having sacrificed her life so as to heal deep wounds inflicted on Ireland and her family by political and religious confrontations. In this light, Imelda´s silence can be considered as positive, redemptive and saintly.
