IRC Postdoctoral Fellow Brandon C. Yen (School of English, UCC) has collaborated with Trinity College Dublin to mount an exhibition on 'Ireland and the English Lake Poets'. The exhibition arose from Dr Yen's book project on Wordsworth's Ireland, funded by the Irish Research Council; it explores cultural and socio-political exchanges between and across Romantic Ireland and England through a rich variety of materials, including manuscripts, antiquarian books, illustrations, newspapers, maps and pictorial satires.
