Politics, Campaigns and Communication: Library Late Spring Summer 2009
Political Campaigning a Topical Theme for the National Library This Summer
Politics, campaigns and communications is the timely theme for the forthcoming series of Library Late interviews at the National Library of Ireland from April to June 2009. Professor Steven Knowlton, Dr Garret FitzGerald and Stephen Collins are three guests uniquely qualified to provide both contemporary and historical perspectives on the subject. The series also highlights the Political Ephemera Collection of the Library, an indispensable resource for the study of Irish politics, history and propaganda that documents the shift in political sentiment and party politics over the years.
In conjunction with Library Late, Mary Broderick, curator of the National Library’s Ephemera Collection, will give a special talk entitled Proclamations, Posters, Politics & Power : 400 Years of Word on the Street. This will focus on the Library’s collection of political ephemera and take place on Thursday, June 18th at 1pm (no booking required).
Wednesday, 29 April at 8pm - Steven Knowlton
Tuesday, 26 May at 8pm - Dr. Garret FitzGerald
Wednesday, 24 June at 8pm - Stephen Collins
