Century Ireland, an online historical newspaper that tells the story of the events of Irish life a century ago, is produced by a team of researchers at Boston College Ireland, led by Academic Director Mike Cronin. A collaborative partnership between the major cultural and educational institutions in Ireland, the project is funded by the Department of the Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht and hosted by RTÉ.

Robert J. Savage, Jr., Adjunct Associate Professor of History, discusses his book A Loss of Innocence? Television and Irish Society, 1960-1972.

A Loss of Innocence? explores the evolution of Ireland’s national television service during its first tumultuous decade, addressing how the medium helped undermine the conservative political, cultural and social consensus that dominated Ireland into the 1960s.
