Biography

Enrico Dal Lago is Established Professor of History at the University of Galway and a Member of the Royal Irish Academy. He is originally from Italy, where he graduated as Dott. Lett. at the University of Rome 'La Sapienza' in 1988. Subsequently, he studied Archaeology in the United States, where he was awarded an M.A. in Anthropology at the University of Kansas in 1993. Between 1995 and 1999, he was a Teaching Fellow in the History Department at University College London, from where he received his PhD in History. He joined the History Department at NUI Galway as Lecturer in American History in 1999, he was promoted to Personal Professor in 2017 and appointed Established Professor of History in 2021. Professor Dal Lago was Head of the History Department (2018-21) and he is Head of the School of History and Philosophy (2019-23). He has published numerous articles and 14 books, 6 of which as single author, in the fields of comparative history of slavery and antislavery, the American Civil War, nineteenth-century American History, and nineteenth- and twentieth-century Italian and European History. In recognition of his achievements, in 2016 the National University of Ireland awarded Professor Dal Lago the D.Litt. on Published Work in History, a higher doctorate awarded to scholars who, over a sustained period, published a substantial body of ground-breaking and influential work and achieved outstanding international distinction in a particular research field. In 2020, Professor Dal Lago was elected Member of the Royal Irish Academy (MRIA) in the PL&A Section.
Professor Dal Lago's research focuses on slavery, antislavery, and the American Civil War in comparison and connection with contemporary events and social and political transformations in Europe, and especially in Italy during the age of national unification. His research builds upon the most recent scholarship in the comparative history of unfree labour and nation-building in the United States, the Atlantic World, and Europe. Professor Dal Lago is a member of the American Historical Association, the Organization of American Historians, and the Fulbright Alumni Association. He is also a member of the Editorial Board of The Journal of Social History, and he has served as manuscript reviewer for numerous peer-reviewed journals such as The American Historical Review, The Journal of American History, Comparative Studies in Society and History, The Journal of Historical Sociology, and Labour History.
In 2004, Professor Dal Lago was the main organizer of a major three-day International Conference on "Slave Systems, Ancient and Modern" at the Moore Institute at NUI Galway. Since 2010, he is a member of the International Research Network on “The Second Slavery”, based at the Fernand Braudel Centre for the Study of Economies, Historical Systems, and Civilizations, in Binghamton University. In March 2011, he organized a Panel on “Antislavery, Liberalism, and Empire-Building: The United States and Europe, 1841-1881”, within the context of the special celebrations for the Sesquicentennial (150 years) of the American Civil War, at the Annual Meeting of the Organization of American Historians (OAH), in Houston, Texas. In May 2011, he organized – together with NUI, Galway's Head of the Italian Department Professor Paolo Bartoloni – an international workshop on “Debating the Italian Nation: Historical and Cultural Perspectives”, to mark 150 years since Italy's national unification. Since 2014, Professor Dal Lago is co-director, together with Dr Roisin Healy , of the Centre for the Investigation of Transnational Encounters (CITE), through which he has co-organized -- with Dr Roisin Healy and Dr Gearoid Barry -- two major international conferences at NUI Galway: "Small Nations and Colonial Peripheries in World War I" (2014), and "1916 in Global Context: Connections and Comparisons" (2016) -- the latter as part of NUI Galway's programme for Ireland's Decade of Centenaries (2012-22). Over the past ten years, Professor Dal Lago has also participated to numerous media events in relation to both American and Italian History with networks such RTE Radio1, Newstalk, Time, RAI Storia, and others.
