Sinossi

Irish Penal Codes examines the severe laws enforced upon Irish Catholics during British rule, revealing both the explicit goal of control and the lasting impact on Ireland's political and social structure. Delving into Anglo-Irish relations, the book argues that these laws were a sustained attack on Irish Catholic identity, stripping people of land, religion, and political voice.

 
The Penal Laws, designed to suppress the Catholic population, paradoxically fueled nationalist sentiment and left a lasting impact on Irish society. The book progresses systematically, categorizing the laws by their targets—land ownership, religious practice, and education—and then exploring their socio-economic impact, illustrating how they impoverished families and created social stratification.

 
It further details the repercussions on Irish culture and analyzes the laws’ lasting impact on Irish nationalism and sectarianism. By using original legal documents and contemporary accounts, Irish Penal Codes provides a fresh perspective on discriminatory legislation and its long-term consequences, offering valuable insights into Irish history and the legacy of British rule.

Hicky's Bengal Gazette - The...

Andrew Otis

Hicky's Bengal Gazette is the story of India's first newspaper and its pivotal role in exposing the corruption of the British imperialist project.The story opens in late-eighteenth century Calcutta. The British are well-ensconced in Bengal but the Raj has yet to emerge. Irishman, James August Hicky, arrives in Calcutta as a surgeon's mate, seeking his fame and fortune. He soon finds himself in debtors' prison, however, and it's while in jail that he first acquires the printing press that sets him on a collision course with the British East India Company. 
 
Sensing a business opportunity, Hicky established the first newspaper in South Asia but quickly became committed to the freedom of the press at great personal cost. His Gazette exposed corruption in the East India Company and embezzlement in the Christian Church, making himself two powerful enemies in the process: Johann Zacharias Kiernander, an influential missionary and Warren Hastings, the Governor General. Staunchly anti-war and anti-colonialist, Hicky's Bengal Gazette was known for its provocative content. Trials, prison time, and assassination attempts follow before Hicky dies mysteriously on a boat to China. His legacy in India endures to this day through the vibrant, modern media landscape.

Kurbas - The Audio Drama

Kateryna Onykiichuk, Jenny...

KURBAS – The Audio Drama is an immersive international audio drama exploring the legacy and artistic vision of Les Kurbas, one of the most radical innovators of 20th-century European theatre. Set during his imprisonment in a Soviet labor camp, the drama unfolds in the shadow of Kurbas’s approaching tragic fate while reflecting on broader questions of freedom, memory, and the role of art in times of political oppression. Blending historical research with poetic storytelling, KURBAS unfolds through powerful dialogues, rich sound design, and original music that functions as a narrative force, creating an experience that sits between audio drama, musical, and documentary. Recorded largely in Kyiv in 2025 under extraordinary circumstances, it carries the resonance of voices shaped by history, resilience, and artistic resistance. Performed by an international cast and created by a multidisciplinary creative team, KURBAS – The Audio Drama is a one-of-a-kind listening experience: cinematic, emotional, and deeply human.
