Senia Pašeta

Senia Paseta is a historian of modern Ireland with a particular interest in the history of education, religious identity formation, political movements, and ideas in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. She has published widely on the development of a Catholic university elite in pre-independence Ireland and on a number of aspects of women's history, including the history of feminism and women's education in Ireland. Her more recent book, Irish Nationalist Women, 1900-1918 (2013), explored how politically active women worked within broader nationalist and feminist contexts during a volatile period of Irish history.
