Mary Wollstonecraft and 15 Henrietta Street: By Fergus Whelan

Each year, Dublin City Council hosts the Winter Lights festival, lighting up key buildings and sites around Dublin. Myself and historian Fergus Whelan went for a walk through some of the 2022 locations, from the Marshalsea Prison to Wolfe Tone Park. Did you know that the 'Father of the Scottish Enlightenment' is buried in Dublin, or that Smithfield was once transformed into Checkpoint Charlie? For more see:  Dublin Winter Lights.

Walking the Winter Lights (with Fergus Whelan)

The story of the Society of United Irishmen in Dublin is a story of subversion and a story of dissent. Historian Fergus Whelan, author of a new biography of leading United Irishman William Drennan, joins Donal Fallon to discuss the United Irishmen's origins, their ideology and to answer a central question: How shaped were they by Protestantism and Protestant identity? Contains the familiar (Wolfe Tone) and the unfamiliar (Oliver Bond) on a journey through a different Dublin. SUPPORT TCB: www.patreon.com/threecastlesburning
