Letter from Palestinian Universities to the Gaza encampments in the US: "In a moment of great darkness, your protests erupt and give hope for humanity that Justice is not an abstract concept but a continuous struggle that connects us all."

I'm so sorry to hear of the death of Prof Raymond Gillespie (Maynooth University): a hugely knowledgable and ground-breaking historian, and the nicest of people. www.ria.ie/news/irish-h...

The Irish history world is shocked by Raymond Gillespie's death. An inspirational teacher, he recruited me to early modern studies, suggesting the perfect subject for me. It was the beginning of my great adventure with Irish parliamentary history which has enthralled me & shaped my life.

I have a few invite codes if anyone has people they know who might like to join...

Happy Sthretchmas to all who celebrate. Hope you're all having a relaxing day (i.e. the young ones are doing the clean-up) and will be settling down soon to some peace and that weird book your uncle gave you. Stick with us here for progress updates on the grand auld stretch, and a little fun too.

A quick reminder for everybody before ye all get too excited. Normally the December solstice falls on the 21st December for us in Ireland, but every 4 years, on the year before the leap year, it falls on the 22nd. The moment of the solstice this year will be at 3:27 tomorrow morning, Irish time.

I wrote a review of Liam Kennedy et. al's 'The Death Census of Black '47: Eyewitness Accounts of Ireland's Great Famine', which has just appeared in Irish Economic and Social History. It's an excellent resource, and a *free ebook* 🗃️ doi.org/10.1177/0332...

Tough year for art sales and I depend solely on it for a living, so if you like anything I do, I'd appreciate if you'd keep me in mind when buying gifts for friends or family. If you hate what I do, I'd appreciate if you'd keep me in mind when buying gifts for enemies or nemeses.
