A Conversation with Professor Patrick Nunn

from Story Archaeology · host Chris Thompson and Isolde Carmody

Patrick Nunn is the Professor of Geography at the University of the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. He is a leading climate change scientist, author, and a specialist on how stories from oral traditions may have encoded memories of geological and oceanic change from around seven thousand years ago. Join Chris and Patrick as they discuss, remarkable oral story transmission, illustrated by 'climate change' stories from Australia, the Pacific Islands, and, Ireland. And, at last, I get to hear scientific evidence of the, highly probable, antiquity and importance of the dindshenchas story of Sinann. I have been looking forward to this conversation since 2015!Links for this episode Patrick Nunn is the Author of Edge of Memory and Worlds in Shadow, both books I very highly recommend. Listen to The Story Of Sinann podcast.
