Calendar - Institute for English and American Studies

The annual Irish Studies & Cultural Theory Summer School will be taking place again in Flensburg from 19-25 July 2026 with the theme “Adaptation and Resistance.” This timely topic will bring in the discourses of politics, history, geography, landscape, art, ecocriticism, gender, genre, and screen/stage adaptation. It will also touch upon fields of study such as sustainability studies, animal studies, folklore studies, media studies, film studies, cultural studies, and literary studies. There will also be an introductory class to the Irish language!

The summer school is being organized as an Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme, for which the EUF partnered with the Universities of Cork, Limerick, Prague, Trinity College Dublin, and Charles University Prague. The school is accredited according to the ECTS System (please speak with your programme coordinator regarding compatibility). Registration will close on May 31, so register now to avoid disappointment!
