The Sir John T. Gilbert Commemorative Lecture, 2003

The Gilbert Lecture Series was inaugurated in 1998, the year which marked the centenary of the death of Sir John T. Gilbert. The aim of the series is to celebrate the life and work of Gilbert, and the history of Dublin, the city whose past he wished to uncover and bring before a wider public.

The sixth annual lecture in the Gilbert Lecture Series, Nicholas Carolan's Robert Emmet and Songs of Rebellion was held in the Oak Room of the Mansion House on 23 January 2003, and chaired by the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Councillor Dermot Lacey. The lecture was accompanied by Barry Gleeson who performed the songs.
