A travers les îles celtiques A-stroll Study 15,5 x 24 cm - 504 p. - 30 euros ISBN 978-2-7535-0716-6
This is a book which pays homage to Professor Gwenael Le duc, an internationally recognised figure in the world of Breton literature. Although his main area of specialism is that of the Breton theatre, his other fields of study include medieval Latin manuscripts which fed into his research on the influence of Latin and of Roman culture on the medieval history of the Celtic countries. His research into Middle Breton and Modern Breton led him to study the origins of proper names (onomastics) and the way in which literary and spoken Breton meet. His approach has been to look at sources relating to various myths and traditions so as to put into perspective the relationships between history and hagiography. To close the book, some of his friends offer personal testimonies, often coloured with a dash of humour to stay perfectly faithful to the person honoured.
Bretagne et Irlande : pérégrinations ; mélanges à Jean Brihault Texts grouped by Yann Bevant and Anne Goarzin Study 14,5 x 21 cm - 264 p. - 21 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-03-9
This series of articles includes contributions from various academics, colleagues and friends of Emeritus Professor of Irish, Jean Brihault, in honour of his work. Professor Brihault was based in the Centre for Irish Studies at the University of Rennes 2 and was its President from 1996 to 2001. The articles gathered in this book have been written by lecturers-researchers in Irish studies and in Breton and Celtic Studies based in France and Ireland. They provide evidence of the great vitality which arises through collective research, which is what Jean Brihault always attempted to foster and encourage.
Breton song traditions and the case of the gwerzioù : women's voices, women's lives Natalie Anne Franz Study 14,5 x 21 cm - 270 p. - 12 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-12-1
Derived from the Latin versus, in the sense of poetic verse, the term gwerz [plural gwerzioù] refers to a Breton genre of narrative song often equated with balads. Infanticides, murder, kidnapping, rape, debauched clerics, promiscuous girls, corrupt noblemen, poverty, betrayals, incest. Such is the stuff of which the gwerzioù are made. They embody an oral tradition of song practice which is associated primarily with women. Mothers, daughters, sisters, wives, spinners, domestic servants, beggar women, agricultural workers, the singers of the gwerzioù tell for the most part not of war or glory, but of intimate life : the family, the home, the village community, and the threats and tensions inherent therein. Jealous lovers, incestuous fathers, vengeful brothers, adulterous husbands, deceitful in-laws, treacherous stepmothers, impious priests : all appear, all are painted. The portraits are not beautiful. To what extent are they "true" ?
Buhez Genovefa a Vrabant Gwenael an Dug Study 14,5 x 21 cm - 216 p. - 14 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-01-5
This book, written by Gwenael Le Duc, is based on a play which was the subject of the thesis he completed in Dublin in 1983. His approach was to attempt to rediscover the original text, written in 1640, from the study of three different manuscripts. Gwenael Le Duc, who died in 2006 at the age of 55 was a Professor of Breton and Celtic Studies at the University of Rennes 2.
Carnaval et autres poèmes / Feis agus dánta eile Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill Poetries 14,5 x 21 cm - 180 p. - 12 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-04-6
Born in Lancashire, Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill learned Gaelic in the County of Kerry before beginning her studies in the University of Cork. Her first writings showed the influence of Sean O'Riordain and that of Mairtin O'Direrain, but soon afterwards Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill showed herself to be one of the greatest poets in contemporary Gaelic literature. A writer with multiple talents, she manages to introduce themes stemming from modernity into the traditional collection of Irish earlier literature.
Cultures, langues et imaginaires de l'Arc Atlantique Texts grouped by Yann Bevant, Gwendal Denis and Herve ar Bihan Articles 14,5 x 21 cm - 306 p. - 12 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-05-3
The articles which compose this book arise from the symposium dedicated to the Atlantic Arc which was held in the University of Rennes 2 in 2007. The Atlantic Arc is a recent geopolitical concept which was forged in Western Europe at the end of the XXth century by various countries bordering the Atlantic which wanted to establish some economic coherence and political convergence among themselves. Based on the perception that the littoral zones of Western Europe remained peripheral regions with regard to the industrial and financial heart situated in the East, the Atlantic arc represents both an attempt to find a new political balance and a will to establish the specificities and assets which link the regions of the Atlantic coast. This ambitious idea is examined in this book which reports on the close links which exist between culture and economic development.

France, Ireland and Rebellion Edited by Yann Bévant, Anne Goarzin & Grace Neville 14,5 x 20,5 cm - 168 p. - 10 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-13-8
This book is the second volume of the proceedings of the highly successful AFIS Conference held in University College Cork in May 2009 entitled “France, Ireland and Rebellion”. The first volume dealt with the literary aspects of the matter, whereas this tome concentrates on historical material. It is the ambition of the authors to explore the upheavals which marked the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in both Ireland and France that had a deep and long-lasting impact on Franco-Irish relationships, both in terms of how each nation viewed itself and of the ideological influence of this interaction between the two countries. The book is consequently divided into two sections. In the first part, the authors analyse major events that affected both nations, from the 1798 United Irishmen uprising to the 1848 rebellion and the perception of the Franco-Prussian war in 1870-71. The second part focuses on how the representations of revolt may affect and influence attitudes and/or bring about transformations. This part provides fascinating explorations of issues like the saga of the Cork hurlers’ strike, attitudes to painting, wines or the perception of the conflict in the North in French left-wing papers l’Humanité and Libération.

La langue bretonne et l'école républicaine Yves Griffon Study 14,5 x 21 cm - 202 p. - 15 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-00-8
Since the 1895 publication of François Vallée’s book "The Breton Language and Schools", many other books and articles have dealt with the place of Breton in the French education system. Yves Griffon, himself a native speaker of Breton, started to study Breton at the University of Rennes 2 when he retired, and chose to return to the topic of the relationship between Breton and education for his university thesis, collecting and analysing many testimonies in the process. He carried on researching the subject until his sudden death at the end of 2005.
Le chouan et le sauvage Cédric Choplin Study 14,8 x 21 cm - 640 p. - 22 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-15-2
Partant de l’étude d’un corpus original, Feiz ha Breiz, un hebdomadaire catholique et monarchiste en breton publié de 1865 à 1884, Cédric Choplin nous fait découvrir à travers les yeux des missionnaires les populations des étendues glacées du Canada, des forêts mystérieuses d’Afrique, des villes de la Chine impériale... Les nombreux extraits, fidèlement traduits, permettront au lecteur, bretonnant ou non, de s’imprégner du discours sur la diversité humaine à une époque où la France se lançait, non sans hésitations, à la conquête d’un empire colonial. Loin des poncifs sur « l’alliance du sabre et du goupillon », ce livre explore les relations souvent ambiguës entre missions catholiques, colonisation et racialisme scientifique. Cédric Choplin, né au Mans en 1972, est historien de formation et spécialiste de la langue et de la littérature bretonnes. Professeur de breton ainsi que d’histoire-géographie au lycée Jean Macé de Rennes, il est membre du CRBC-Rennes. Il participe activement au groupe Ermine dirigé par Ronan Le Coadic.

The First World War has been analysed many times but always within the remit of the nation states. The texts gathered in this book focus on the conscripts and soldiers who left their native province to fight for France. Among the themes included there are studies relating to various regions: - Republican education and its ideological functioning in Brittany, - the role of the press in the Basque Country, - the part played by Corsican soldiers, - the conscientious objectors and deserters of the Pyrenean border. More general themes are also studied such as trauma denial, the effects of the war on rural life and its demographic consequences.
Murals d'Irlande du Nord, Quel avenir après cent années de pratique communautaire ? Alain Miossec Study 14,5 x 21 cm - 154 p. - 14 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-14-5
Mural paintings are an integral part of urban spaces of Northern Ireland main cities’ popular areas.This work is an edited and actualised version of a master degree research conducted in 2009 for the department of Irish Studies of Rennes2 University. It puts murals’ painting back in its historical context and deals with the origins of such practices in both communities. An insight in chosen areas of Belfast and Derry enables an understanding of the motivations behind the use of themes according to specific areas. Besides, the analysis of those themes indicates that they contribute to maintaining people from these areas in a sectarian mind. Last but not least, it questions the durability of murals in a quasi pacified Northern Ireland with the study of a governmental regeneration programme aimed at replacing violent and aggressive murals and the response to this programme.

TIR devient donc l’éditeur de la revue. Cette présente livraison n’est pas un numéro thématique: il s’agit de diverses contributions proposées en journées d’étude organisées entre 2008 et 2010 auxquelles ont été annexés un certain nombre d’articles spécialement rédigés pour ce numéro de reprise.
Qui veut faire l'ange, fait la bête ! - De la gwerz bretonne de Yann Girin à la légende hagiographique et au mythe... Patrick Malrieu Study - Color photos inside 20 x 26 cm - 142 p. - 25 euros ISBN 978-2-917681-09-1
Research into the origin of a Breton ballad sung by Yann Girin and first collected in Brittany at the end of the XIXth century led Patrick Malrieu to find comparable versions from Northern Europe to Tanzania, and from Northern Africa to Iran and India over a period of many centuries. These variously take the form of a folk song, a saint’s life, a pious tale, a mythological story... This myth continues to be updated and is still alive in contemporary society.

Rebellion has been a feature of French and Irish literature since people first began to put ideas on paper.

Figures dealt with include Dion Boucicault, J.W. Whitbread, Hannah Lynch, Fannie Gallaher, May Laffan, George Sand, Liam O'Flaherty, Charles Baudelaire, James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, Paul Verlaine, Ciaran Carson, Seamus Heaney, John McGahern, Louis-Ferdinand Céline, and Sebastian Barry.
