20.00

An important collection of seven essays will be launched at the Royal Irish Academy in Dublin on 5 September 2025 by the Clans of Ireland, Eneclann, O’Donnell Clan Association and the Genealogical Society of Ireland. 2020 marked the Quatercentenary of the first burial in the Franciscans’ Chapel of Saint Anthony’s College, Leuven. Donal Óg O’Donnell, nephew of the famous Red Hugh O’Donnell, Prince of Tyrconnell, left Ireland as part of the retinue of the Flight of the Earls in 1607, when the College was founded, and joined Spanish forces in Flanders, where he died in 1620. To mark this event the Irish College Leuven with the support of the Leuven Centre for Irish Studies and the European Federation of Associations and Centres of Irish Studies hosted an online webinar with presentations from key speakers. This excellent collection will soon be available to researchers, students and the public largely through the perseverance and encouragement of Amb (ret) Francis M. O’Donnell, FGSI, GSI President and the generous sponsorship by Eneclann and the Clans of Ireland.

Please note that the price does not include postage and packaging. This will be calculated and added at checkout.
