Gabriel Doherty Is a College Lecturer in the School of History, University College Cork, and Is the Editor of 1916: the Long Revolution.
Terence MacSwiney is most famous as the central figure in one of the great hunger strikes in world history, which culminated in his death in October 1920, aged 41, in Brixton prison, London, after a fast of 74 days. For many years prior to his demise, however, he had been an active participant in the intense cultural and political debates that characterised Irish life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
