Sources of Information
- Theodore William Moody (Theodore William Moody (26 November 1907 - 11 February 1984) was a historian from Belfast, Ireland. Moody was born in Belfast. At the Royal Belfast Academical Institution, Moody's strongest subjects were the sciences and Latin, but one of his teachers, Archie Douglas turned his attention to history. At the Queen's University Belfast, a professor James Eadie Todd encouraged Moody to pursue graduate studies. In 1930 he went to the Institute of Historical Research in London, and graduated with a PhD in 1934. In 1932, Moody returned to Queen's University to work as a teacher's assistant to Todd, and in 1935 Moody started to deliver lectures himself. Feeling historians in Ireland worked too much in isolation, Moody founded in February 1936 the Ulster Society for Irish Historical Studies, and later that same year, Edwards founded the Irish Historical Society. In June 1939, Moody accepted an offer to teach at Trinity College, the most prestigious university in Ireland. He held the position of Erasmus Smith's Professor of Modern History at Trinity College Dublin from 1940 to 1977, when he became professor emeritus. ( (Wikipedia, viewed Feb. 5, 2026:) )
