Brian McGurk, Bradley McGurk Brand Consultants, Dublin
“The excellent mix of the quality and expertise of the presenter, the research-based presentation on business principles, combined with the use of the applied case-study to demonstrate these principles in use, made for a rounded and really effective learning experience. A very worthwhile day! The learnings from this seminar will, I’m certain, stand the test of time. Glad I didn’t miss it.”
Kevin Mitchell, Datascope Ltd, Enniscorthy
“The leadership forum is a meeting of academic research with the coal face of business decision-making. The forum worked for me because it combined the best of academia with great local managers.”

Where Faith and Politics Meet: Sir Thomas Cusack’s Ambitions for Tudor Ireland

Sir Thomas Cusack, a native of Meath, was arguably one of the most influential Anglo-Irish politicians in the Tudor political establishment. Entering politics in the 1530s, he served well into his sixties with only brief periods of absence from the workings of the Dublin Administration. Although his presence is well evidenced in state documentation, the absence of personal papers has made an analysis of his personal convictions difficult. One such area of ambiguity is the seemingly inconsistent and contradictory evidence of Cusack’s faith. Historians are of divided opinion concerning his religiosity; some labelling him a staunch protestant or crypto-catholic, others an irreligious politique. From his role in the dissolution of the monasteries (including Lismullen) to his Catholic sympathies, this lecture will weigh the evidence of Cusack’s personal faith and allegiance, ultimately seeking to understand it through the religious context of the mid-sixteenth century and the political ideals he championed for Ireland.
It will be given by Jeffrey Cox, researcher at the School of History and Archives (UCD). Formerly a history teacher in the United States, and a Fulbright sponsored teacher in Northern Ireland, Jeffrey Cox completed a Masters in Early Modern History at University College Dublin. His master’s research focused on the political career of Sir Thomas Cusack. Jeffrey is currently a PhD candidate in the School of History and Archives at UCD, and a research assistant for the Iberian Book Project. His current research centres on Catholic communities in Elizabethan and early Stuart Sussex and Kildare.
The back drop to the details about the Lismullin spring heritage series (view here) shows part of a letter Sir Thomas wrote from Lismullin.
The lecture starts at 8pm and there will be refreshments afterwards. Entry fee is 5 euro.
Lecture followed by discussion and light refreshments. Cover charge €5.
