Six drafts of:

'Towards a Map of South Connemara

All drafts have the same date of 16 Jan 1981, but the evolution of the writing can be traced from the first, handwritten draft, through each of the subsequent typed versions.

Three typed drafts of Tim Robinson's introduction to 'Connemara after the Famine, Journal of a Survey of the Martin Estate 1853'. There are handwritten edits in each draft, incorporated into the subsequent draft.

Eight iterations of 'Space, Time and Connemara', the introductory essay to 'Connemara Part 1: Introduction and Gazetteer'.

These go from handwritten, to annotated typed versions, up to the final version. One draft incorporates notes from Paul Mohr, one with notes from Mike Gibbons, and one with notes from Mick O'Connell.

File of correspondence between Robinson and Jim Donnelly, co editor of the Journal of Irish Studies. The correspondence begins with a request from Donnelly for Robinson to contribute a scholarly article for publication in their journal, and continue through various iterations of a version of 'Space, Time and Connemara'. The final correspondence is a carbon copy of a letter from Robinson regretting the aborting of the journal. (23 Oct 1987-19 Jul 1988). The article was eventually published in 'A Journal of Irish Studies', published by the Irish American Cultural Institute, and a photocopy of this is included.
