A lecture by Professor Andrew Carpenter, from the School of English, Drama and Film in UCD, on Swift and Gulliver’s Travels, will take place in the Seminar Room of the National Library of Ireland as part of the events programme for the Dublin: One City One Book 2008 project. The lecture will take place on Thursday, April 17 at 1pm. All are welcome and no booking is required. Rare Swift material, translations and illustrated publications of Gulliver’s Travels will be on display in the National Library of Ireland during the month of April.
Now in its third year, Dublin: One City, One Book, an initiative of Dublin City Council Public Libraries, is a project designed to encourage everyone in the city to read the same book during the month of April each year. To celebrate Gulliver’s visit to Dublin, 15 events and exhibitions will be held throughout the capital in April for both adults and children. For more information, visit the project website.
