Home Page Faculty/Staff Midwest ACIS Conference e-Keltoi electronic journal Certificate Program Courses Study Abroad Events News / Newsletter ... Contact Celtic Studies Certificate Program The Certificate Program in Celtic Studies provides for students in any field an integrated course of study across several curricular areas into the historical and contemporary cultures of the Irish, Scots, Welsh, Cornish, Manx, Breton, and Galician peoples. Students can concentrate on the Celtic languages, both spoken and written, or they may choose investigate the broader themes of the Celtic world, such as art, archaelogy, literature, history, folklore, music, and myth. Students also are encouraged to enrich their campus experience through participation in study-abroad programs. Eligibility for the Program The Certificate Program in Celtic Studies is open to all students seeking a bachelor's degree from UWM and to students who previously have received a bachelor's degree from UWM or any other accredited college or university. Program Requirements To obtain the certificate students must complete the required courses with a minimum GPA of 2.75; they must take at least 9 credits in upper division (numbered 300 and above) courses, and at least half the credits for the certificate must be taken in residence at UWM. All students are urged to participate in a study abroad program. Credits earned via study abroad through a UWM sponsored program count as residence credits.

College of Letters and Science Faculty Document No. 589 April 12, 2001 Recommendation of the Ad Hoc Celtic Studies Committee and the Course and Curriculum Committee to Establish a Certificate Program in Celtic Studies PROGRAM IDENTIFICATION Title of Proposed Program: Certificate Program in Celtic Studies Department(s) or Functional Equivalent(s) Administering the Program: This is an interdisciplinary certificate program administered by the Coordinator of the Certificate Program in Celtic Studies and overseen by the faculty Advisory Committee for the Certificate Program in Celtic Studies. College(s), School(s), or Functional Equivalent(s): College of Letters and Science Timetable for Initiation: Semester I, 2001-2002 RATIONALE UWM's strong history in Celtic studies already has attracted the notice of the Irish government, from whom we have received an offer for sponsorship of our language programs. Furthermore, the recent establishment of such pan-Celtic organizations as the Council of the Islesdiscussed belowoffers other opportunites for securing international funding for course work that applies to the Certificate. The strength of, interest in, and commitment to Celtic culture in Milwaukee and Wisconsin provides a fertile environment for the continued development of the symbiotic relationship that already exists between the University and the Community. The impressive growth of Celtic-related community events in the Milwaukee area is evidence of a widespread and active base of community support. Links between this community to UWM go back over 30 years in the form of support of scholarship and lectures, and is currently manifested in such events as the annual Irish Fest Summer School, held at UWM each August for the past 15 years. The Certificate in Celtic Studies is expected to address the desire of many in the Milwaukee Celtic Community for a formalized program of Celtic studies.

Much Madness is Divinest Sense Junk for the discerning eye. « Web Development Main Another Sunday » March 27, 2004 My Dream Vacation This is an entry from my old diary. I always liked this one. Goals. My husband says he hates when people ask the old question, "Where do you see yourself in five years?" I used to ask my students to write an essay describing their lives at the ages of 15, 25, 35, 55, and 75. Each age was a paragraph - your standard five-paragraph essay. I often got some remarkable stuff. I learned what their dreams were. Where they wanted to be at the age of 75. When I'm 75, I would like to have lived my life. I suppose one of the reasons I got divorced [from my first husband] was that part of me was empty inside and knew there was more to love than that. And I was right. I would like to just take life by the horns and do some things I've always wanted to do. I am taking steps to do that, but some of the things I want to do require money (alas), so they'll have to wait. So the number one thing I want to do that will require money is tour the U.K. If I could do it any way I wanted, and money was not an object at all, I would really do it in style. I would cross the Atlantic Ocean aboard a luxury liner, specifically the Cunard Liner Queen Elizabeth II . And as long as I'm doing it up right, I want to stay in the Aquitania Suite. I would need to book a voyage from New York to Southampton. While aboard the

56. Camelot Malory s editor, however, favors a welsh Camelot. in Somerset which has beenconnected with arthur by legend and to the original Arthur by archaelogy. http://www.uidaho.edu/student_orgs/arthurian_legend/england/sites/camelot.htm

Camelot Far down he gazed On Camelot, until he made of it A phantom town of many stillnesses, Not reared for men to dwell in, or for kings To reign in, without omens and obscure Familiars to bring terror to their days From Merlin by EdwinArlington Robinson Camelot is the phantom town, slipping from place to place, not to be fixed to a particular geographic location. Malory finally places it with Winchester, the capital of King Alfred's Wessix. Malory's editor, however, favors a Welsh Camelot. Another possible site is Camel near Cadbury Castle in Somerset which has been connected with arthur by legend and to the "original" Arthur by archaelogy. The name Camelot is of unknown derivation. It may have taken from the Ronam Camulodunum , which means "Fort of Camulos," an ancient British war-god. Camulodunum was a town in Essex, almost on the Saxon shore, which doen't seem a likely inspiration for the legend. The aforementioned village of Camel may also have inspired the imagination of writers. Camelot was a fictitious city first named as Arthur's principal home some time in the 12th century. It is peculiar, in that it was his personal capital and not a national capital. Historians believe that this makes it more plausible that there was a factual basis for Camelot. John Leland, in 1542, claimed Cadbury Castle was the "real" Camelot. Cadbury was the head quarters for a 5th century king. Its west country location gives it credibility as the original Camelot.

57. Celia Haddon Standing Stones In Exmoor Page a corruption of Kil Bueno meaning the church of St Bueno, a welsh saint . but described as a setting in “The Field archaelogy of Exmoor”. http://www.celiahaddon.co.uk/standing stones/exmoor.html

Berkshire Cornwall County Cork Dorset ... Victorian Cards Almsworthy Common stone setting SS 84304171 BACK TO TOP In l920s this was interpreted as two concentric ellipses with an inner circle of four remaining stones. But in l939 it was reinterpreted as a rectilinear stone setting, maybe two or three parallel stone rows. The stones are small. It is sited on a hillside looking down to Chetsford water just off the Macmillan way. There are 15 stones, three with a stone nearby which may be fallen portion. Remains of a nearby hut circle suggest that the hut, at least, was in woodland. Brendon Two gates SS 76594363 BACK TO TOP Caractus stone , Winsford Hill. SS 88983355 BACK TO TOP The inscription reads "CARAACI NEPUS', kinsman of Caractus. The stone originally lay close to a track running out of the Exe valley. A shelter was built for it in l906. Caractus was the British leader of the rebellion against the Romans in 47-51 AD. The stone was first documented in 1219 as a Forest boundary and called the "Langeston". A little stone hut has been built round it! There seems a modern impulse somehow to domesticate standing stones, to impose our suburban mind set upon their wildness.

Home ::: Films Poking around in my bookmarked "articles to re-read", I was taken in once again by this Guardian interview of JG Ballard about a year ago. His thoughts on today's art scene struck a chord with me: "Today's art scene? Very difficult to judge, since celebrity and the media presence of the artists are inextricably linked with their work. The great artists of the past century tended to become famous in the later stages of their careers, whereas today fame is built into the artists' work from the start, as in the cases of Emin and Hirst. There's a logic today that places a greater value on celebrity the less it is accompanied by actual achievement. I don't think it's possible to touch people's imagination today by aesthetic means. Emin's bed, Hirst's sheep, the Chapmans' defaced Goyas are psychological provocations, mental tests where the aesthetic elements are no more than a framing device. It's interesting that this should be the case. I assume it is because our environment today, by and large a media landscape, is oversaturated by aestheticising elements (TV ads, packaging, design and presentation, styling and so on) but impoverished and numbed as far as its psychological depth is concerned." Moving off topic, I want to learn more about the author and discover there's a lot of material on Ballard to sift through, but

Home ::: Films Elvish Mirabilis led me to an entertaining bit of news related to the current Lord of the Rings craze- "Do you Speak Elf?" that she found on BBC. "As if murderous orcs and magic spells weren't enough to contend with, there are two languages to learn - loosely based on Welsh and Finnish. Undeterred by the challenge, a group of schoolboys has volunteered for lessons in Sindarin, the "conversational" form of Elvish, invented by Lord of the Rings author JRR Tolkien. Zainab Thorp, a special needs co-ordinator at Turves Green Boys' Technology College in Birmingham, is offering after-hours classes, where pupils plough through vocabulary and verb tables. She said: "The recent success of the Lord of the Rings films has increased the interest in learning Elvish." Read more on BBC This is of a quirky kind of interest to me since I wrote just recently about the Finnish connection to the Lord of the Rings. In fact, the word "Elvish" sounds like a blending of Welsh and Finnish! I have to chuckle. Posted by Marja-Leena on March 04, 2004
