The O’Donnell Lectures

Charles James O’Donnell provided a bequest in 1935 to provide for an annual lecture in NUI on the history of Ireland since the time of Cromwell - with particular reference to the histories, since 1641, of old Irish families – the lectures to be published by NUI. The series began in 1957 and continued until 1986, when the fund became depleted. They were revived by NUI in 1999 and are presented in the NUI Constituent Universities in rotation. A list of the published O’Donnell Lectures is available along with an order form.
