A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode, Constantin Torve discusses his research on agrarian protest in 19th century Ireland, through the case-study of Edward Synge.


Constantin Torve (MA, Uppsala) is a PhD student in history at Queen's University Belfast. His ESRC-funded research project investigates the adaptation of agrarian secret societies in 19th-century Ireland to changing socio-economic environments.

Dr Jay Roszman is a lecturer in 19th century Irish and British History at University College Cork, a position he took up in 2018. His first book, Outrage in the Age of Reform: Irish Agrarian Violence, Imperial Insecurity, and British Governing Policy 1830-1845 was published by Cambridge University Press in 2022. In addition to writing about the political meaning of agrarian violence and its political consequences, Jay is also interested in imperialism and Irish involvement in the British Empire. He has a forthcoming article with English Historical Review on Daniel O’Connell, Irish Nationalism, and British Imperial Trouble. His new project explores the Queen’s Colleges and their relationship with the British Empire: training men for imperial careers, but also as institutions that reflected British imperial interests in Ireland and abroad.
