Résumé : | Based on archival records held in Dublin, Caen, Angers and Rome, this book deals with the magdalen asylums, reformatories, industrial schools, hostels and ‘family group homes’ run by the Sisters of Our Lady of Charity in Ireland, as well as the convents themselves. It spans the period from the sisters’ arrival in Dublin (from Paris) in 1853 through to the modernisation of the 1970s. It offers a fuller understanding of magdalen laundries and certified schools in Irish social history, the context of their creation, re-modelling and dismantling over time, and the commitment of these sisters to the care of women, girls and children pushed to the margins of society. |
