We're so proud of our own Teddy Lehre for winning the #ACIS Krause Research Fellowship!

[American Conference for Irish Studies @ACIrishStudies]

The Krause Research Fellowship is awarded to Theodore Lehre (Boston College) for their project “Alternative Motherhoods in Twentieth- and Twenty-first Century Irish Literature.” This project identifies how alternative motherhoods challenge the foundations of Irish society.

Professor Joe Nugent successfully launched JoyceWays at #BCIreland.

JoyceWays is not just a map. It is a time machine. An augmented reality layer of literature over the streets of Dublin.

There are more launches to come in Paris and in Krakow.
