English’s career in medicine, with particular focus on Irish asylums during her years working at St. Brigid’s Hospital, Ballinasloe (1904-1942).This is the untold story of the life and work of Dr Adeline (Ada) English (1875-1944), a pioneering Irish psychiatrist deeply involved in Irish politics. Ada English spent four decades working at Ballinasloe District Lunatic Asylum, during which time she introduced significant therapeutic innovations. A passionate participant in the Easter Rising, English spent six months in Galway Jail for possessing nationalistic literature and was elected as a Teachta Dala in 1921. A friend to Pearse, Mc Donagh, Griffith, Mellows, De Valera and others, she became heavily involved in the Civil War.
