The Memorial Lecture in honour of Jennifer O’Reilly was established in 2017 by the School of History. Each year a distinguished scholar is invited to speak on either the writings of Bede or medieval iconography, two subjects that Dr O’Reilly explored in her research and teaching: https://www.ucc.ie/en/history/drjenniferoreillymemorialpage/thejenniferoreillymemoriallectureseries/
