The seminar presentations will explore the motivations and performance of the Irish Volunteers in the International Brigades set against the political and social context of the time here in Ireland. A particular focus will be the role played by women on both sides of the conflict while the personal journey of a volunteer will be viewed through the lens of the wider family’s perspective.
