'Under the great comedians tomb: The funeral of Parnell'

"We are delighted to bring together such an array of talented speakers under the auspices of our relationship with Glasnevin Trust. Over the course of this lecture series our speakers, each of them eminent historians and scholars, will analyse and interrogate funerals that helped to shape collective memory in Ireland. From the annual gathering at Wolfe Tone's grave in Bodenstown, to the theatrical mourning of Michael Collins we will learn more about the funerals that define Irish political culture to this day." Dr Ciaran O'Neill (Trinity College Dublin)

Frank Callinan presents this lecture in the Museum's Milestone Gallery at 7pm.
