    An Irish mission to the Antipodes: the Brigidine Order and its establishment in Beechworth
    Bruce, David A. ( 1988)
    The Brigidine Order was founded by Dr. Daniel Delany in Ireland in 1807 under circumstances which helped it develop distinctive features in its attitude to social and educational mission. In 1886 four Sisters established a community in Beechworth. The thesis is concerned with the way in which the Order developed, the evolution of its particular brand of pedagogy and the circumstances under which it came to a provincial town in northern Victoria.
