In this latest publication in the TII Heritage series, we discover another 'Book of Kells', which records the long prehistory of Kells and its hinterland.

Exploring the evolving relationship between theatre and therapy, this book examines how actor training and performance practices intersect with mental wellbeing. It delves into various forms, including documentary theatre, solo performances, and dramatherapy, highlighting both the connections and tensions between the two fields. The revised edition reflects contemporary shifts in attitudes towards theatre as a therapeutic tool, offering insights into its role in promoting mental health and its applications in therapeutic contexts.

Exploring the intersection of grief and theatre, this Element delves into how theatrical expressions mourn not only for the deceased and bygone ways of life but also envision new forms of collective existence. It emphasizes the necessity of incorporating grief into the public domain as a means to advocate for the preservation of health and social care services, alongside communities and artistic institutions, particularly theatre.
