Royal Irish Academy Conference: Spatial Justice and the Irish Crisis
23 April, 2013, Academy House
The on-going crisis and associated responses to it (political, governance, popular etc.) provides an entry point for a wide-ranging exploration of spatial justice as a theoretical construct and a departure point for empirical analysis. Discourses of justice, equality and fairness remain central to a range of interconnected debates as Ireland seeks to recover from the interrelated collapses of the banking system and property markets and the knock on effects through the rest of society and the economy. Scale is an important dimension in framing and constructing popular discourses concerning issues of justice, e.g. the role of EU institutions in shaping Ireland’s treatment of banking debt or the impact of national budgetary measures on particular places. The focus of this conference is on understanding these spatially connected processes, how they are functioning at different scales, their impact on particular or specific places and spaces, as they give rise to new or evolving social and economic geographies.Spatial Justice and the Irish Crisis: Migration - Mary Gilmartin

This document discusses spatial justice and emigration from Ireland. It notes that while many saw high emigration in the 1950s as normal, others felt it was driven by economic constraints. More recently, emigration is more voluntary as the emigrants are highly educated youth seeking opportunities abroad. The concept of "spatial justice" and how spaces are produced socially is discussed as a framework for understanding emigration patterns. While useful, spatial factors alone do not determine who emigrates - class, gender, ethnicity and other social factors are also important predictors. A multifaceted approach is needed to understand the cultural, geographic, economic and policy drivers of emigration and its impacts.

Day describes the work of the OS and in particular, of the Hill Drawing and Topographical Departments. She refers to the intellectual breadth of Colby and Larcom, the two key drivers of the Survey in Ireland and their connections with the main intellectual societies in Britain and Europe. The role played by the Irish Survey vis-à-vis the Trigonometrical Survey of India, led by George Everest, is discussed. The military training included drawing skills and some of the major exponents of artistic endeavour in the military wing of the OS are presented. Finally, the 1,600 drawings contained in the OS Memoirs are discussed in terms of their content, level of skill and their role in the Survey.Paul Walsh, 'George Petrie's "Topographical Department" 1835-42'. 15-10-2014
The document summarizes the work of George Petrie and the "Topographical Department" from 1835-1842 in compiling detailed maps and historical records for Ireland. It outlines how Lieutenant Thomas Larcom conceived of collecting additional local information beyond just maps. George Petrie was put in charge of the "orthography and etymology" work of gathering over 144,000 place names and other details about the landscape, settlements, and history of Ireland to accompany the maps. The project aimed to provide a comprehensive geographical information system of maps integrated with historical and cultural memoirs of each area of Ireland.
The history of british postage stamps laura
The document provides a history of the British postal system and postage stamps from the 12th century through the modern era. It outlines the establishment of the Royal Mail in the 16th century and the introduction of the world's first postage stamp, the Penny Black, in 1840. It then discusses developments in stamp design and printing through the Victorian era and 20th century, including commemorative stamps and issues for regional areas.
Discovering History Through Digital Newspaper Collection
Hear from Seth Cayley, Director of Research Publishing at Gale, a part of Cengage Learning, as he discusses the historic media coverage of familiar and little known events, cultural phenomena, and everyday life found in 19th and early 20th century newspapers. Learn how historical newspapers can support faculty research, drive inquiry and critical thinking among students, and stimulate classroom debate.
Peel's decade
Sir Robert Peel served twice as Prime Minister of the UK in the 1840s. During this time, he oversaw important social reforms like the Factory Act to regulate child labor, the Mines Act to improve safety, and the Public Health Act. However, his repeal of the Corn Laws damaged his popularity. Ireland experienced the devastating Great Famine from 1845-1849, resulting in mass deaths and emigration. Peel continued enacting reforms but his sudden death in 1850 left a vacuum in Conservative leadership during a time of economic and social upheaval.
Pastoral art
The document discusses the history and development of pastoral art from early Roman wall paintings through the Renaissance and into the 19th century Industrial era. It provides examples of pastoral paintings from various time periods including works by Giorgione, Poussin, Claude Lorrain, Constable, Cole, and Eakins. It also briefly outlines some key events and developments in English history from the 17th through 19th centuries including the English Civil War, Great Fire of London, Glorious Revolution, and Industrial Revolution.

The document offers brief overviews of over a dozen publications spanning different eras, regions, and topics that involve maps or atlases.
Gold changed everything
The document provides background information on depth studies for a Year 9 history course, focusing on Depth Study 1 titled "Making a Better World?". It discusses three possible electives within this depth study: the Industrial Revolution from 1750-1914, movement of peoples from 1750-1901, and progressive ideas and movements from 1750-1918. The document provides details on the content and key questions covered for each elective, with a particular focus on the progressive ideas and movements option. Images and summaries are included on several major technological developments and new ideas that emerged during this time period and contributed to changes globally and in Australia, such as the Industrial Revolution, photography, railways, vaccination, and Darwin's theory of evolution.
Irmãs Fox in Corynthian hall
The document summarizes investigations that took place in November 1849 at Corinthian Hall in Rochester, NY regarding mysterious rapping sounds produced by the Fox sisters. A committee was formed who reported hearing distinct rapping sounds in various locations around the hall and in a private home, even when the sisters' feet were held and they were separated by distance or another person. Both appointed committees were unable to determine the source of the sounds. This public demonstration helped spark further interest in spiritualism.

Peel's decade
Sir Robert Peel served twice as Prime Minister of the UK in the 1840s. During this time, he oversaw important social reforms like the Factory Act to regulate child labor, the Mines Act to improve safety, and the Public Health Act. However, his repeal of the Corn Laws damaged his popularity. Ireland experienced the devastating Great Famine from 1845-1849, resulting in mass deaths and emigration. Peel continued enacting reforms but his sudden death in 1850 left a vacuum in Conservative leadership during a time of economic and social upheaval.

Mapping city, town and country since 1824: the Ordnance Survey in Ireland - RIA Library/IHTA Lunchtime Lectures
Lecture delivered by Paul Walsh on behalf of Prof. Ó Muraíle.
This paper addresses the difficulties of naming places in Ireland, the work done by the OS Topographical Dept. and especially John O'Donovan to ensure that names used on the 6" maps were as accurate as possible. The difficulties presented by the Irish language, the methodologies used by Placenames staff and the tensions between accommodating the Irish language origins or versions of names and later Anglicised forms are discussed, as are the compromises which were made. The accuracy of O'Donovan's method is assessedRob Goodbody, 'From Rocque to the Ordnance Survey: mapping Dublin 1756-1847'....

Mapping city, town and country since 1824: the Ordnance Survey in Ireland - RIA Library/IHTA Lunchtime Lectures
This paper addresses the mapping of Dublin city from John Rocque's map of 1756 down to the OS mapping of the city 1830-40s, all within the canal ring. Outlining the limitations and exigencies of mapping in different periods, the various types of map, from estate maps, street directories, administrative maps etc., Goodbody surveys the mapping heritage of the city interpreting the maps under discussion, highlighting idiosyncracies and pointing to the developments in mapping the city.

Mapping City, town and country since 1824: the Ordnance Survey in Ireland - RIA Library/IHTA Lunchtime Lectures
Herity focusses on the period 1830-61 and O'Donovan's involvement with the OS 6" mapping project and the centrality of his role. His expertise in the Irish language and grasp of etymology, as well as his intimate knowledge of the history and antiquities of Ireland, resulted in the connection of 'placenames with history... raising them above mere words'. The importance of O'Donovan's fieldwork, keen ear, in-depth knowledge and forensic research are described, as are the treks he engaged in on a daily basis throughout the country. His connection with Petrie's work on Tara is adverted to. Betham's vituperative criticisms and the consequent scrutiny of the Memoir scheme and the OS work is discussed. Examples are provided of O'Donovan's linguistic prowess and his acerbic wit.

Royal Irish Academy Conference: Spatial Justice and the Irish Crisis
23 April, 2013, Academy House
The on-going crisis and associated responses to it (political, governance, popular etc.) provides an entry point for a wide-ranging exploration of spatial justice as a theoretical construct and a departure point for empirical analysis. Discourses of justice, equality and fairness remain central to a range of interconnected debates as Ireland seeks to recover from the interrelated collapses of the banking system and property markets and the knock on effects through the rest of society and the economy. Scale is an important dimension in framing and constructing popular discourses concerning issues of justice, e.g. the role of EU institutions in shaping Ireland’s treatment of banking debt or the impact of national budgetary measures on particular places. The focus of this conference is on understanding these spatially connected processes, how they are functioning at different scales, their impact on particular or specific places and spaces, as they give rise to new or evolving social and economic geographies.Spatial Justice and the Irish Crisis: Education - Gerry Kearns and David Mere...
