Frank McNally’s latest piece for An Irish Diary in the commends the encyclopedic reach and sumptuous illustrations of Atlas of the Irish Civil War.

McNally explores the vivid role of colour-coded maps in portraying the stark realities of the Irish Civil War, with Kerry’s grim death toll represented in a haunting shade of dried blood.

We are deeply shocked and saddened to hear of the untimely passing of our dear author and friend, Dr Gabriel Doherty. Co-editor of The Art and Ideology of Terence MacSwiney (2022), he was also a contributor to our recent Atlas of the Irish Civil War. His valued contribution to Irish history will be remembered. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues at this difficult time. May he rest in peace.

We wake this morning to the sad news that Nell McCafferty has died aged 80.

An unwavering advocate for women’s rights in Ireland, her writing was described by Eavan Boland as “the writing of a passionate witness.” This is truly apparent in the groundbreaking A Woman to Blame: The Kerry babies case which has remained continuously in print since it was first published in 1985.

It is an honour for us to provide a platform for a small portion of her remarkable writing under our Attic Imprint. May her legacy continue to inspire generations to come.

We are deeply mourning the loss this week of our colleague, author and friend, Éibhear Walshe.
His contribution to research in modern Irish fiction and drama with a focus on literary criticism, biography, cultural history and representations of sexuality was invaluable.
His sudden passing is a huge loss for the Irish Studies community.
May he rest in peace.
