This interdisciplinary course explores the relationship between Irish literature and economics from the 18th century to the boom times of the Celtic Tiger and the fallout from the recent banking crisis. The course will situate contemporary Irish literature and culture in relation to earlier periods, but also in the context of the Irish government’s bailout of the banks and the subsequent European Union-IMF “bailout” of the sovereign state of Ireland.

9.2 Dynamic range The quietest sound we can hear corresponds to a pressure wave with an amplitude of about 10 μPa, which is a very small pressure amplitude indeed. It is about 0.000 000 01 per cent of nominal atmospheric pressure, and the resultant displacement of the eardrum is less than a tenth of the diameter of a hydrogen molecule. At the upper end of the scale, a sound that is distressingly loud might typically correspond to a pressure wave with an amplitude of 0.01 per cent of nominal atmospheric

For many purposes, the difference doesn't matter. In fact, it is a good illustration of the advantages of interdisciplinary work, with different kinds of app 16th Annual Lions Oratory Competition 2010 Keep on learning There are more than 800 courses on OpenLearn for you to choose from on a range of subjects.
