NEI Digital Round Tables aim to discuss aspects of research in the field of Irish Studies conducted by members of the Núcleo de Estudos Irlandeses of UFSC - the Federal University of Santa Catarina, in Florianópolis, Brazil - with scholars and artists from Ireland, and from the Irish Studies global community.

In 2022, UFSC and NEI are taking part in the project Ulysses100 Through Brazilian Eyes, launched by the Embassy of Ireland in Brazil and the Consulate General of Ireland in São Paulo to celebrate the centenary of the publication of James Joyce’s Ulysses.

“Contemporary Joyces” explores a range of literary and artistic approaches to aspects of James Joyce’s family, life and work. The discussion focuses on the exhibition Love, says Bloom, at MoLI, curated by novelist and short story writer Nuala O’Connor, as well as on her most recent novel, Nora: A Love Story of Nora and James Joyce; the film installation ULYSSES/FILM, by filmmaker Alan Gilsenan, also being shown at MoLI; the documentary radio play The United States versus Ulysses, by playwright Colin Murphy, available at RTÉ Drama One; and the body of work of dancer and filmmaker Áine Stapleton, dedicated to Lucia Joyce, James Joyce’s daughter, including the films Horrible Creature and Medicated Milk.
