Description |
A recording entitled "Footnotes to Irish History" about historic Irish people during the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, told by Southern Illinois University visiting lecturer Eoin O'Mahony. O'Mahony specialized in Irish culture, genealogy, history, politics, and literature. In the "Footnotes" recordings, O'Mahony and an unidentified man comment on notable authors, poets, artists, Catholics and Protestants, and politicians in Irish (and British) history. In part 24 the conversation centers around the funeral of William Butler Yeats and the handling of his remains, as well as other topics within the context of W. B. Yeats: Edward George Warris Hulton, John Warnford Armstrong, John Butler Yeats, Jack Yeats, and the Portobello House. |
