University of Granada

The Centre was established in May 2015 at the University of Granada and it is constituted by ten active members working full time on the field of Irish Studies. The aim is to support and promote academic research on Irish Studies in the Eastern side of the Spanish region of Andalucía. The Centre’s focus is multidisciplinary, and conducts research in a wide range of academic disciplines regarding Ireland and Northern Ireland, ranging from history, literature, language and Hiberno-Spanish Relations. The Centre benefits from close academic collaboration with the nearby Universities of Jaén and Almería. In addition to hosting Irish artists, visiting fellows and building and maintaining scholarly networks, we organize on a regular basis academic conferences and intensive seminars on Irish Studies, which are open to the general public.  Funding comes from a variety of sources, including the European Federation of Associations and Centres of Irish Studies (EFACIS), the MA Programme of Literature, the Department of English Philology and the Vice-Deanship for Cultural Activities and Research (Faculty of Arts and Philosophy, University of Granada). Artists who have visited us thanks to the support of the EFACIS Irish Itinerary include Claire Kilroy, Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáisn, Mary McPartlan, Macdara Woods, Pat Boran, Marina Carr, and Colette Bryce.
