_____________________________
Long before the terrible fire of 1922 which destroyed the Public Record Office of Ireland, historical records were being slowly lost to damp, decay and vermin. Writing became obscured by soot and grime or bleached by sunlight, the written record hidden within crumpled parchment and paper too brittle and fragile to be unfurled. History became invisible.
Now, research by expert conservators and heritage scientists...2024-03-061h 10

Trinity Long Room HubBehind the Headlines | No place like home?Recorded February 13, 2024.
The upcoming referendums to amend the Irish constitution propose to introduce a wider definition of family and remove the text on the role of women in the home. As interested parties set out their cases for and against the suggested changes, a recent Irish Times column has argued that the editing out of the word ‘home’ is not accidental. But what is the Irish home? Is it a place of caring and belonging? Are women still perceived to be at its centre? And who is excluded by the identification of home with family? In this Behind the Headlines, we d...2024-02-1458 min

The way violence is represented always influences its reception and integration within the cultural imaginary. The narration of violence is ingrained in our perception of ourselves and our communities, and those who report traumatic events then carry the responsibility of how they are received and memorialised.
Just as the world emerged from the COVID-19 crisis, the Russian invasion of Ukraine turned the general atmosphere of hope for a new beginning into an even darker and more oppressive...2024-02-131h 10

Ever since Susan Sontag’s pioneering studies Illness as Metaphor (1978) and Aids and its Metaphors (1989), research into the potential effects of metaphor use in health-related talk and thought has been a staple of the Medical/Health Humanities.
