    The Civil War lasted for little more than a year but what of the lingering fall-out and the bitterness that infected politics for decades afterwards.

  • The Role of Women - Part 4
    Aug 19 2022
    For most of the last hundred years, the role of women in the revolutionary period, including the Civil War, received shockingly little attention but that is now changing. Apart from the general omissions there were women who played particularly prominent roles in the Civil War. Their lives and contributions to the period are examined in this podcast by Dr Mary McAuliffe and Dr Hilary Dully.

  • The Big Fella Writ Large - Part 2
    Aug 19 2022

    Michael Collins was the man who won the war, or so some said. Others considered him the Lost Leader, a figure who could have brought the new state to a bright, new shining place. On 22 August 1922, Collins was shot dead in Beal na mBlath in West Cork. A life well and fully lived came to a horribly premature end. But who was this man who served as both Director of Intelligence and Minister for Finance in the War of Independence, who went on to sign the Anglo Irish treaty in the prophetic knowledge that he would never live to see a form of freedom for his country.

    UCC historian and lecturer Gabriel Doherty is the guest on this episode of the Civil War series. He talks about the man, the myths and the tragedy.
