- Oct 43:30 PMLecture: "A Career Doomed to Failure? Sir Thomas Cusack (1505–71) and the Tudor Conquest of Ireland"As part of the Keough-Naughton Institute's fall 2024 speaker series, Ciaran Brady, emeritus professor of early modern history and historiography at Trinity College Dublin, will deliver a lecture based on his forthcoming book about Sir Thomas Cusack. Lecture Abstract Thomas Cusack was at the forefront of Irish politics from the 1530s to the early 1570s. Closely associated with every initiative of Tudor policy in Ireland from the Reformation, the conciliatory policy of surrender, and regrant to the introduction of provincial presidencies, he was the only Irish-born official in the years after 1534 to hold the office of chief governor. Yet he remains one of those elusive figures who appear, positively but fleetingly, in historical studies of sixteenth century Ireland. No monograph devoted to Cusack has ever been attempted, and he has not even been the recipient of a single scholarly article. In this lecture, Ciaran Brady seeks to redress this neglect, but more importantly to question the underlying interpretative assumptions from which it arose. Speaker Biography Ciaran Brady, MRIA, is emeritus professor of early modern history and historiography, and Fellow Emeritus, at Trinity College Dublin. The author of several books, including The chief governors: the rise and fall of reform government in Tudor Ireland (Cambridge, 1994) and James Anthony Froude : an intellectual biography of a Victorian prophet (Oxford, 2013), his latest book, Sir Thomas Cusack: a Tudor career in sixteenth century Ireland, is currently being prepared for publication.

- Oct 45:00 PMLabor Café: "American Workers and the 2024 Election"Hayden Kirwan, a senior majoring in history and minoring in poverty studies, will facilitate a discussion about workers and the 2024 election — jobs, immigration, unions, taxes, tariffs, and more. Kirwan is a Just Wage Research Lab fellow at the Center for Social Concerns. The Labor Café at the Center for Social Concerns convenes the Notre Dame community for casual conversation on contemporary questions about work, workers, and workplaces. What rights and protections should those who work for others have? What’s the proper role for government in the economy? How should we address enduring problems of inequality, poverty, and lack of opportunity? And what does Catholic social tradition have to say about these labor questions? Participants choose the concrete topics, all people are welcome, and all opinions are entertained. Visit socialconcerns.nd.edu/labor-cafe for more information.
- Oct 47:00 PMFilm: "How to Blow Up a Pipeline" (2022)Each year around the Feast Day of St. Francis, the Browning Cinema programs films that look at nature, both for its beauty and the challenges presented in its preservation. This year, our film is adapted from Andreas Malm's 2021 novel of a similar title that presents questions that are central to environmentalism and sustainability but apply broadly to any form of political action: Where should guardrails be placed when one wants to eradicate a harm? To unspool that question, the film centers on a crew of young environmental activists executing a mission to sabotage an oil pipeline in this taut and timely thriller that is part high-stakes heist, part radical exploration of the climate crisis.
