La Vie Creative – Avec A Hemingway: Trocadero

The first time you visit Paris undoubtedly your list of must-see monuments includes the Eiffel Tower. In this week’s episode of Paris History Avec a Hemingway on La Vie Creative Podcast we take you around the Eiffel Tower and Trocadero and share a few other things you might want to check out.

The Esplanade du Trocadero is one of the best spots in the city to catch the sunrise, but look around and not just straight at la grande dame. On the Esplanade des Droits de l’Homme, eight golden statues look down on the many trinket sellers. Added in 1937, each by a different artist they represent youth, the countryside, flowers, and the day on the north side. On the south side, the garden, sprint, fruit, and birds often is found with a Paris pigeon sitting atop her head.

This month on Right To Write: Maria D’Arcy

Ms D’Arcy graduated in education with merit in philosophy, psychology and sociology from Notre Dame in Scotland, then followed voice and theatre training at The Gaiety school of Acting in Dublin where she learned the skill of creating vivid backgrounds to bring credulity to the characters. She became an oral storyteller specialising in the literary texts of James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, Robert Burns and for the last two years has been reading/enacting extracts from her own novel, Seventh Heaven Seven Perceptions, too in Paris where she now lives. 2022, being the centenary of Ulysses she was invited to do a costumed photo shoot at The Irish Embassy and appeared on stage at the commemorations held at Le Centre Cuturel Irlandais and the renowned bookshop Shakespeare and Company.

In 2021 her manuscript was reviewed most favourably by a journalist who works for World Radio Paris, Fusac magazine and the online Irish Central.

http://mariadarcy.com/press/index.htm

Seventh Heaven, Seven Perceptions is her first novel. The writing instinct was instilled when she became a compulsive diarist at the vulnerable age of 15. She learned the joy of keeping secrets, the release of confessing regrets, capturing passion, wallowing in sorrow, analysing mistakes and then moved onto enriching her vocabulary which contributed to opening her mind. This novel is her legacy to the world, an exploration of life, death, religion and sexuality, seen through the eyes of seven characters, thus sociology, psychology and philosophy were called into play.

On latest episode of Turning Points in France: Literary specialist, author and Professor – Clíona Ní Ríordáin

In this episode of Turning Points, Patricia Killeen welcomed Clíona Ní Ríordáin from Cork in
Ireland. Clíona is a literary specialist, an author and a Professor at the Sorbonne Nouvelle-
Paris 3 university. Now actually living in Paris longer than she lived in her native Cork,
Clíona explained why she considers herself to be “a Parisienne” and discussed the inspirations
and experiences that led to this realization.

She also spoke about the joy and challenges of welcoming post pandemic students back to
campus after a two-year absence and mid-year moving the university to a new campus in the
12th arrondissement.

Between February and May 2022, Clíona hosted monthly conversations with translators, who
translated James Joyce’s “Ulysses” into French, Portuguese and Italian.

Her passion for literature, translation, and bringing wonderful words to a wide public, is
continued in her new work entitled “Plus loin encore” (published by Circé) which will be
published this autumn. It is a personal anthology of poems by Irish poet Gerry Murphy
translated into French. She is also looking forward to co-organizing poet John Montague’s
Memorial Conference, in June 2023 at the Centre Culturel Irlandais.

And tune into your inner “Parisienne” with Clíona reading her extraordinarily beautiful essay
on Irish national radio:
“Why I am a Parisienne” https://www.rte.ie/radio/radio1/clips/22119094/
