CUSPAIREAN RANNSACHAIDH

(English below)

Bidh mi a’ sgrìobhadh air litreachas Gàidhlig a bhuineas do dh’ iomadach linn: eadar bàrdachd chlasaigeach bho na meadhan-aoisean gu dealbhan-cluiche Gàidhlig an latha-an-diugh. Tha iasad, sgaoileadh agus eadar-theangachadh bheachdan agus cultair aig cridhe mo chuid rannsachaidh le ùidh shònraichte ann an trì prìomh raointean:

  • LITREACHAS GÀIDHLIG & LÀMH-SGRÌOBHAINNEAN BHO NA MEADHAN-AOISEAN ANMOCH AGUS NA LINNTEAN TRÀTH-NUADH

Bidh mi a’ cur ùidh mhòr anns na dòighean a bha deasbadan, cuspairean agus sgeulachdan eadar-nàiseanta air an cleachdadh le bàird Ghàidhlig. Mar eisimpler, exempla anns a’ bhàrdachd chràbhaidh a gheibhear ann an Leabhar Deadhan Lios  Mòir (1512-1542), faicibh http://theses.gla.ac.uk/2425/ neo deasbadan an t-Soillearachaidh Albannaich anns a’ bhàrdachd ann an Cruinneachadh MhicLathagain (1750-1800) aig Oilthigh Ghlaschu. Bidh mi cuideachd a’ cur ùidh ann an laoidhean agus litreachas eile mun Fhèinn. Bho 2018 tha mi nam Phrìomh Rannsaiche air Lìonradh Rannsachaidh, maoinichte le Comann Rìoghail Dhùn Èideann, air a bheil ‘Gaelic Literature in Enlightenment Scotland: The McLagan Ossianic material.’

  • BEUL-AITHRIS NA GÀIDHLIG

Bho 2015 air adhart dh’obraich mi air eòlaire ùr, air a bheil Seanchas: The Global Gaelic Jukebox, a bheir seachad fiosrachadh air tasglannan anns a bheil clàraidhean-fuaim Gàidhlig. Faicibh https://dasg.ac.uk/seanchas/

  • DEALBHAN-CLUICHE GÀIDHLIG

Ann an 2017 bha mi nam cho-dheasaiche air iom-leabhar sònraichte den International Journal of Scottish Theatre and Screen air dràma Gàidhlig.  Thug mi fhìn sùil air dealbhan-cluiche a chaidh eadar-theangachadh gu Gàidhlig airson sin. Faicibh https://ijosts.ubiquitypress.com/34/volume/9/issue/0/ Ann an 2018 tha mi air a bhith ag obair air dealbhan-cluiche do chloinn a rinneadh aig toiseach an 20mh Linn, faicibh https://www.blogs.hss.ed.ac.uk/selcie/2017/10/20/dusgadh-agus-mosgladh-catriona-nicghille-bhain-ghrannd-dusgadh-na-feinne-1908-calum-mac-pharlain-am-mosgladh-mor-1914-15/

RESEARCH INTERESTS

I have published widely on Gaelic literature, from medieval to modern: from late-medieval bardic poetry to modern Scottish Gaelic drama.   My research on Gaelic literature is united by an interest in transmission, borrowing and translation of culture and ideas, with focus on three main areas:

  • MEDIEVAL & EARLY MODERN GAELIC LITERATURE AND MANUSCRIPT CULTURE

I am particularly interested in the ways in which international ideas, topics, tales and ideas are used by Gaelic poets. For instance, late-medieval exampla in religious bardic poetry from the Book of the Dean of Lismore (1512-1542), see  http://theses.gla.ac.uk/2425/ or Scottish Enlightenment debates in the poetry from the McLagan Collection (1750-1800) at the University of Glasgow. I also work on Ossianic/Fenian lays and other literature. From 2018 I am the Principal Investigator on a Research Network funded by the Royal Society of Edinburgh: ‘Gaelic Literature in Enlightenment Scotland: The McLagan Ossianic material.’

  • GAELIC FOLKLORE

From 2015 onwards I worked on the creation of a new online directory, Seanchas: The Global Gaelic Jukebox, which presents information on archives in possession of Gaelic sound recordings. See https://dasg.ac.uk/seanchas/

  • GAELIC DRAMA

In 2017 I co-edited a special issue of the journal The International Journal of Scottish Theatre and Screen on Scottish Gaelic drama. My own contribution concentrated on plays that had been translated into Gaelic from other languages. See https://ijosts.ubiquitypress.com/34/volume/9/issue/0/ In 2018 I have been working on Gaelic plays for children written at the turn of the 20th Century, see https://www.blogs.hss.ed.ac.uk/selcie/2017/10/20/dusgadh-agus-mosgladh-catriona-nicghille-bhain-ghrannd-dusgadh-na-feinne-1908-calum-mac-pharlain-am-mosgladh-mor-1914-15/
