**** Signed by the author ***** A forgotten Gaelic revivalist from the Béarra Peninsula, the focus of this book is an utterly neglected, important figure from the period leading up to the foundation of the Gaelic League and the early years of that movement, Pádraig Ó Laoghaire / Patrick O’Leary (1870–1896), from the Béarra Peninsula in West Cork. Taking her reader on a biographical tour in the opening chapter, Meidhbhín Ní Úrdail follows with an analysis of the development of this key scholar from an emerging author to a respected man of letters, both at home and abroad among the Irish diaspora worldwide. Ó Laoghaire’s position and influence in the Gaelic League is then examined alongside his role as important confidant of fellow Gaelic revivalists, Douglas Hyde (1860–1949) and Joseph H. Lloyd (1865–1939). Also examined are Ó Laoghaire’s own poetry and his pioneering Sgeuluidheacht Chúige Mumhan, a unique collection of seven folktales from Béarra’s oral tradition that appeared in 1895. This, in fact, is Ó Laoghaire’s most acclaimed publication and has, as Ní Úrdail points out, the distinction of being the first published folktale collection of its kind to emanate from Munster. She also believes that its concluding linguistic notes’ section makes it the first serious scientific study of contemporary Irish as spoken in the province. Assessment by contemporaries of Ó Laoghaire’s standing, not least in his obituaries, provides a further layer in this multi-faceted investigation. Over time, Pádraig Ó Laoghaire seems to find brief mention, if at all, in studies of the resurgence of Irish nationalism and culture in the final decades of the nineteenth-century. This, Ní Úrdail argues, is due in no small part to the legacy of the other famous Ó Laoghaire and towering figure from Cork, ‘An tAthair Peadar’. That the Béarra man died of tuberculosis at the young age of twenty-six years is, she notes, a contributory factor. We have here a new study of Pádraig Ó Laoghaire in his own place and time. Ní Úrdail provides the reader with an account that sheds new light on a period of enormous cultural, linguistic and political significance in the latter part of the nineteenth century. Originally from Glanmire, Co. Cork, but with close family ties to Béarra, Meidhbhín Ní Úrdail is a graduate of University College Cork and the University of Freiburg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. She is Professor in Modern Irish at University College Dublin where she is currently Head of Subject and was elected a member of the Royal Irish Academy in March 2021.
