OVERVIEW
Research Strategies
Irish and Celtic Studies is part of the Modern Languages research cluster, which
provides a vibrant environment for both disciplinary and interdisciplinary scholarship.
Recognised as a centre of excellence for research into the languages, literatures,
histories, linguistics, visual cultures, and cultural identities of Europe and beyond, the
cluster is founded on a dynamic and forward-looking research ethos. Within this cluster,
Irish and Celtic Studies aims to promote and disseminate cutting-edge research across
all periods of the Irish language and also focuses on aspects of language and literature
in Scotland. Research in the unit is conducted on both an individual and collaborative
basis.
Research Strengths
Staff have an established research profile across the spectrum of fields within Irish and
Celtic Studies. Prominent areas include:
- Folklore
- Historical linguistics, sociolinguistics and dialectology
- Language and Identity

- Medieval Irish language and literature

- Onomastics
We also have a strong record in supervising comparative and interdisciplinary theses
across the humanities and involving other Schools in the University.
