Patrick Quigley, author of Borderland and the “Markievicz Trilogy” presents this talk on the radicalisation of Countess Markievicz as a result of her visits with relatives in Ukraine.

Before her marriage to Casimir Markievicz she shared many beliefs of the Anglo-Irish but was made aware of Poland’s struggle for freedom on her visits, arousing a concern for social justice that led her to become a revolutionary in Ireland.
