The Book of the Congress. Dublin 1932

"The Dublin Eucharistic Congress of 1932 was a hugely important event which helped shape a particular Irish identity in the early years of the State. Of course, the event was primarily a religious gathering, nevertheless the Congress of 1932 has received much attention due to the impact the event had upon an Irish politics and national identity. This record of the event is an important resource for religious and cultural historians who have studied 1930s Ireland. "
