The Story of Ireland: The Age of Revolution

Series 1, episode 3

Fergal Keane explores the events between the Ulster Plantation at the beginning of the 17th century and the 1801 Act of Union, an era that saw Ireland take centre stage in a much wider European conflict involving Louis XIV's battles. He also draws attention to how 18th-century Dublin experienced an intellectual, architectural and cultural boom, and tells the story of why the French Revolution resonated so well with Wolfe Tone and his fellow reformers
