Irish History and Culture
This group will cover all aspects of Irish History and Culture.
I have a series of presentations which I have given in my local u3a which typically last for 45-50 minutes, allowing time for questions and discussion. I am not a historian but I do have an abiding interest and read a lot of history. The range of subjects is eclectic and non-sequential. I try to present a balanced viewpoint, necessary given the sometimes contentious nature of history on this island.
I am open to suggestions as to topics and would welcome contributions from other members of the group.
The culture side has been somewhat the junior partner, but I am hoping to develop that rather more over the coming year.
