My very own Podcast

For my podcast, I am planning to do something about Ireland. My honors thesis is about the relationship between langauge and identity in Ireland, so I am going to reuse a lot of this information. It will be interesting though to put what is now a 17-page research paper into such a different, and brief, format.

In part of my thesis, I am comparing Irish literature from different times over the past century. I think that in my podcast, I will try to similarly compare traditional and modern music. Just like the language is changing rapidly, I think the music scene probably is too.

The bulk of my podcast will probably be historical, even though the thesis is mainly philosophy, because I feel that many people don't know very much about the history. But I'll try not to make it a history lecture. I think I will also include a few minutes of some background information in the philosophy of language. I wish I could get an interview with an Irish person, but I will probably just fill the interview requirement with another student's opinion.
