Daniel O’Connell was described by his biographer Oliver MacDonagh as ‘perhaps the greatest innovator in modern democratic politics, as well as the originator of almost all the basic strategies of modern Anglo-Irish constitutional relations’. To reassess his legacy 250 years after his birth, join History Ireland editor Tommy Graham in discussion with Patrick Geoghegan, Jennifer T. Keating, Christine Kinealy and Davide Mazzi.

This Hedge School is supported by Trinity College, Dublin, as part of its two-day O’Connell 250 symposium, Liberty, Democracy and the Struggle for Human Rights.
