Sous-série 18 - Loose Pamphlet Collection

168 items and files; Printed

The subseries comprises a large collection of loose pamphlets, magazines, periodicals, and booklets assembled by Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap., the editor of ‘The Capuchin Annual’. Much of the material is directly related to and largely produced during the Irish revolutionary period of the early twentieth century. The broad subjects include the Home Rule crisis (1912-14), World War I (1914-18), the War of Independence (1919-21), and the Civil War (1922-23).

Other content in the pamphlet collection is indicative of Moynihan’s eclectic interest in Irish church history, Franciscan history, antiquities, Irish literature and art, Gaelic culture, historiography, and the contemporary political and economic situation in Ireland during his lifetime.
