Thanks @ciaranon.bsky.social - it was such an honour to write this with Carole and Roisin, two scholars and friends I’ve learned so much from. Thanks to @irishhistsoc.bsky.social, in particular @elainefarrell.bsky.social & @clodaghtait.bsky.social

www.cambridge.org/core/journal... Great historiographical piece by Lindsey Earner-Bynre, Roisin Higgins & Carole Holohan. Subtle on revisionism, really helpful discussion of method, and powerful on the intersection between work on respectability, the experiential turn, & the unofficial archive.

Including me!
