Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a sweeping historical account of Trinity College Dublin, the first university in Ireland and a leading light of education for centuries. It casts a critical eye on the founding and development of the college, revealing its institutional transformation from a bastion of Protestant ascendancy into an inclusive center of learning for all. Beyond tracing its rich history, the book also delves into the lives of prominent figures from the college's past, such as the poet Oscar Wilde and the philosopher George Berkeley, in order to illuminate the complex intellectual history of Ireland from various perspectives.
