Goldsmith Summer School
Location: Longford
Note: Details below refer to the previous event. Updated information for this year will be published here as soon as it becomes available.
The details below refer to the 2008 Summer School.
Taking its theme this year from a line of Goldsmith's poetry:
“Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey, Where wealth accumulates and men decay”
this literary Summer School in Ballymahon, Co Longford celebrates the achievement of Oliver Goldsmith, his writings and his importance in the Irish literary tradition.
It's serious literary business here but the addition of a website with some further information would be useful. Still, you can contact 353 (0)90 6485162 or email for more details.
