Synopsis

"Intimacy Codes" explores how cultural norms profoundly shape our understanding and practice of intimacy, revealing that what's considered loving or connected in one culture can be misinterpreted or even offensive in another. The book challenges the notion of intimacy as a universal constant, arguing instead that it's a social construct influenced by cultural values, historical contexts, and social expectations. For example, displays of affection, communication styles, and even concepts of romantic partnership vary significantly across cultures. 

 
The book examines cultural differences in both non-sexual and sexual intimacy, drawing upon ethnographic studies, cross-cultural surveys, and analyses of media representations. It emphasizes the impact of globalization and technology on reshaping intimacy codes. 

 
By dissecting these "intimacy codes," the book helps readers navigate cross-cultural relationships with greater empathy and understanding. It progresses by first introducing the core concept, then exploring cultural variations in displays of intimacy, romantic partnerships, and the influence of technology, culminating in practical guidance for fostering empathy in diverse social contexts.

    'Ach cérbh í Peig Sayers?'
    Níorbh í in aon chor an tseanbhean ologónach í ar chuir na glúnta de dhaltaí scoile aithne uirthi. Is léir ó chuntais uathu siúd arbh eol dóibh í gur bhean ghrámhar thuisceanach í a raibh acmhainn grinn inti; bean a fuair blas ar ghal tobac agus ar bhraoinín fuisce, agus a bhí oilte ar chraiceann a chur ar scéal.
    
    
    Saolaíodh Peig i nDún Chaoin i gCo. Chiarraí i 1873. Thug sí bua na scéalaíochta léi óna hathair agus tugadh a sárchuimhne agus an lé a bhí aici le comhluadar faoi deara go luath. Phós sí iascaire ón mBlascaod agus chaith sí saol cruógach i dteaghlach líonmhar ag déanamh cúraim don seisear leanbh léi a mhair.
    
    
    Tugann Labharfad le Cách le chéile den chéad uair na taifeadtaí a thóg an BBC agus RTÉ uaithi i 1946, 1947 agus 1953, mar aon le haistriúcháin Bhéarla orthu. Léiríonn siad fairsinge repertoire Pheig idir scéalta cráifeacha, paidreacha, scéalta rómánsacha, scéalta faoin osádúr agus cuntais ar an saol a caitheadh tráth ar an oileán ach go bhfuil a chuimhne ag dul i léig anois.
     
    'Who was that Peig Sayers?'
    She was anything but the maudlin and old-fashioned Peig remembered by generations of school children. From the descriptions of those who met her, the real Peig emerges as a warm, wise and humorous woman, with an addiction to tobacco, a fondness for a sup of whiskey and a mastery of the art of 'spin'.
    
    
    Born in Dún Chaoin in County Kerry in 1873, Peig learned the art of storytelling at her father's knee, and quickly became known for her sociable nature and excellent memory. Marrying a fisherman from the Great Blasket, she enjoyed a full life with a large extended family and the care of her six living children.
    
    I Will Speak to You All collects, for the first time, in both Irish and English, the recordings made by the BBC and RTÉ of Peig Sayers in 1946, 1947 and 1953. They illustrate Peig's repertoire, ranging from religious stories and prayers to humorous, romantic, even supernatural tales, as well as descriptions of an island life that is passing from living memory.
