(Spring/Summer 2013)
Éire-Ireland: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Irish Studies
welcomes submissions for a Spring/Summer 2013 special issue that will consider the theme
of Sport.
The guest editors of a special issue of Éire-Ireland invite essays on the
subject of Ireland and Sport from the medieval through the contemporary period.
We are especially interested in essays that offer interdisciplinary
perspectives from history, literature, language, geography, sociology,
cartography, archaeology, fine arts, music, photography and film studies. We
encourage submissions informed by newly available archival sources in all
disciplines, as well as essays that explore new methods and theoretical
paradigms for investigating sport as a cultural phenomenon.
Guest editors Mike Cronin and Brian O Conchubhair invite critical articles that
engage with sport and Irish/Irish-American culture and that contextualize sport
in a broader social, cultural, linguistic and historical setting. We welcome
essays that offer interdisciplinary perspectives from history, literature,
visual culture, social welfare, and social policy. We also invite submissions
informed by new sources of archival research.
The deadline for receipt of proposals (two pages) is November 1, 2011, and
completed articles (6,000–8,000 words) will be due by April 1, 2012.
Please send electronic proposals to Professor Mike Cronin (Boston College) at
