Graduate Student Profile
Mannion, Patrick B.A. (honours); M.A. Memorial University
Field: Canadian
Supervisor: Mark McGowan
My B.A. and M.A. research at Memorial focused on Irish community and identity in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Newfoundland. My PhD project will expand this line of inquiry into a comparative study of Irish ethnic populations in three north-Atlantic ports: St. John’s, Newfoundland, Halifax, Nova Scotia and Portland, Maine, 1850-1922. The work will revolve around themes such as ethnicity, religion, political culture, gender and social class – all vital components of identity.
