Our tenth, and last, guest lecture in our lecture series this semester!

Title: Toleration and Irish History

Join us in welcoming Catherine Barry to the stage. An important topic is in store, as this lecture will discuss Irish history and its interplay with the concept of toleration. A very worthwhile topic, and one which would appeal to and benefit anyone willing to attend.

Bio: Catherine Barry

Catherine Barry is a John and Pat Hume Scholar and PhD candidate in the philosophy department in Maynooth University. Her research examines the changes in toleration towards Catholics over the 18th century though a philosophical lens. Her other research interest is in Irish philosophy, especially of the late 17th and early 18th century, along with a broader interest in Irish philosophy as a whole.
