- **Event Description**: Discover the globetrotting career of Irish nationalist Michael DavittAbout this EventMichael Davitt emerged from poverty to become one of Ireland’s most important political figures. Born in Mayo during the Great Famine, his family was evicted when he was a young child – an experience that would shape his lifelong commitment to justice. The Davitts then moved to England, where he began his republican career as an organiser for the Irish Republican Brotherhood and served more than seven years in Pr*son. In 1879, he co-founded the Irish National Land League, a mass movement for tenancy rights, which, at its height, reportedly had 200,000 members. Queen Victoria once called him “one of the worst of the treasonable agitators”.Davitt’s interests extended far beyond Ireland. He travelled widely as a public lecturer, addressing audiences in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and also made a living as a foreign correspondent. Among his most significant assignments was a 1903 investigation into the anti-Jewish pogrom in Kishinev, Russia (now Chișinău, Moldova), commissioned by William Randolph Hearst’s American newspapers.Join us for a seminar exploring Davitt’s global connections, with insights from his letters, diaries, photographs and newspaper articles.About the speakers:Ciara DalyCiara Daly is the project archivist on the Michael Davitt Papers Project in the Library of Trinity College Dublin.
