About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

As part of our Homes of Literary & Visual Giants series, this talk will examine the world of three generations of the Joly family in Ireland, from 1769- 1857. From the arrival of Jean Jasper Joly in Ireland in 1769, this family made a remarkable contribution to society including, in time, to the formation of the National Library of Ireland.

Delivered by Dr Ciarán Reilly, Maynooth University
