Many Irish people are one or two generations away from a peasant background, the kind of life lived all over the world for centuries.
Patrick Joyce, renowned social historian, explores the demise of peasant life in Europe, as well as his own family background in Galway, in his haunting new book, Remembering Peasants: A Personal History of a Vanished World. He will be interviewed by Patrick Freyne, who writes about culture for The Irish Times.
This talk will be recorded and published on GIAF's Youtube Channel in early Autumn.
