Kevin Barry Papers
A collection of material relating to Kevin Barry, who was executed for his part in the killing of three British soldiers in 1920. The collection includes material associated with his days at Belvedere College, his year as a medical student in UCD, and his brief time in custody at Mountjoy Prison before execution. The majority of the collection is composed of material gathered by Kathy Barry Maloney, Barry's sister, after his death.Ownership/custodial history: The Kevin Barry collection was deposited in the Archives Department, University College Dublin in 1990 by Dr Eunan O'Halpin.Scope and content: The Collection is a relatively small but valuable body of material. Barry was only eighteen when executed for his part in the killing of three British soldiers in September 1920, and therefore had little time to generate a large body of material himself. The collection contains his school text and exercise books (P93/2-4, P93/5-8), as well as other material associated with his days at Belvedere Jesuit College, such as sports equipment. There is also some material dealing with his year at UCD where he had begun to read medicine, and his brief time in custody at Mountjoy Prison before execution (1 Nov 1920). However, the larger part of the collection was artificially generated by Kathy Barry Maloney, Barry's sister, after his death, and consists for a large part of news-cuttings and other written material commemorating his life and premature death (1921-64).Scope and content: The whole collection is a very vivid record of a volatile period in modern Irish history. It captures especially well the violent baptism this country received at independence, and the esteem in which those who had died for 'the cause' were held at the time. Kevin Barry was by all accounts an enthusiastic and popular young man, and his life was shattered by involvement in the Republican struggle. The collection captures the pathos of his imprisonment and execution, but also the anarchy and violence in which Ireland of the time was engulfed.Biographical/historical information: Born in Dublin and educated at St Mary’s College Rathmines, Belvedere and University College Dublin where he was a medical student, Barry joined the Volunteers in 1917. He was captured in September 1920 while taking part in a raid on a military lorry collecting bread in Church Street during which a young British soldier was shot dead. He was court martialled and executed on 1 November 1920

Kitcher, Correspondence, and Success
Concerned that deflationary theories of truth threaten his scientific realism, Philip Kitcher has constructed an argument that scientific success establishes not only the truth of crucial scientific beliefs but also their *correspondence* truth. This paper interprets and evaluates Kitcher’s argument, ultimately finding it to be both unsound and unmotivated
