Description:
Christine Casey is a senior lecturer in architectural history in the Department of the History and Architecture at Trinity College, Dublin, and is the author and co-author of two volumes in the Buildings of Ireland series, North-Leinster (1993) and Dublin (2005).
This book brings together a range of perspectives on the subject of the eighteenth-century Dublin town house, illuminating the political, economic and cultural activities of Dubliners and the resulting physical growth of the city. Some of the studies focus on questions of style and technique; others seek to relate the places in which people lodged to the lives they lived in them. The essays draw on an impressive variety of sources including archaeological investigations of sites and documentary evidence such as maps, leases and family correspondence.
