Professor Se�n McConville (Project Director)
"My decade and a half of research into politically motivated prisoners naturally, yet unexpectedly, led on to the Peace Process. In this earlier work I was repeatedly faced with the human consequences of conflict, loss and choice, insights rendered all the more powerful - sometimes painfully so - by individual stories and voices. All too easily the passing years obscure or diminish these testimonies. This project will preserve them for generations yet unborn." |

Dr Anna Bryson (Project Co-Director)
"This project represents an exciting new departure for me. It brings together a number of long-held interests - in local history, in the political history of twentieth century Ireland, and in the power of individual historical accounts. These interviews will enable us to probe the roots of our conflict and to document the complex and often contradictory motivation of all kinds of people - be they lightly or greatly touched by history. Although challenging and extremely sensitive, this is work that I find personally rewarding." |
