Déanfar staidéar ar dhánta le ceathrar mórfhilí a tháinig chun cinn ó bhláthaigh nuafhilíocht na Gaeilge thart timpeall ar an mbliain 1940. Is iad seo Máirtín Ó Direáin, Seán Ó Ríordáin, Máire Mhac an tSaoi agus Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill. Pléifear an cúlra sóisialta, cultúrtha agus polaitiúil as ar eascair a gcuid filíochta agus scrudófar na cuntais chriticiúla atá ar fáil ar a saothar. Tabharfaidh sé sin léargas don mhac léinn ar ghné shuntasach de chultúr na hÉireann ón dara cogadh domhanda i leith.

About this Module

Learning Outcomes:

Ar críochnú an chúrsa ba cheart go mbeadh an mac léinn in ann tuairisc chriticiúil scríofa a thabhairt i nGaeilge chruinn ar an bhfilíocht a pléadh agus ar an gcomhthéacs stairiúil, sóisíalta agus cultúrtha as ar eascair an fhilíocht sin.

The United Nations identified seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as core to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and UCD contributes in general to SDG 4 Quality Education. Further SDGs explored within this module if relevant are listed below. A scale of 1 - 5 indicates the extent to which the SDG is covered.
