O TYM ODCINKU
Dublin’s Hidden Histories is the latest series of ‘Trinity Talks’ from the Trinity Long Room Hub Arts and Humanities Research Institute and Near FM. In this series of talks and radio programmes, we feature an exploration of sites in Dublin which are the subject of ‘difficult’ histories, from asylums to prisons. The series presents experienced researchers and compelling storytellers in their subject areas for this exploration of ‘history in the shadows’. The stories are accompanied by live performances by An Góilín Traditional singers.
In episode one, Ciaran Murray interviews Dr. Susan Byrne from the School of Histories and Humanities in TCD, about Mountjoy Prison and female prisoners of the Free State. The singer is Anne Buckley from An Goilin Traditional Singers.
The episode is presented by Ciaran Murray. Produced by Dorothee Meyer Holtkamp. Sound design by Paul Loughran. Recorded by Gay Graham and Gabor Zajzon. Thanks to Aoife King and all the team in Trinity Long Room Hub.
The series is made with the support of Coimisiún Na Meán’s Sound and Vision scheme, with the Television License fee. The Trinity Long Room Hub is Trinity’s research institute for the Arts and Humanities.
