Just added to Martin Doyle Flutes: a Irish version of Martin Doyle’s homepage.
The translation was very kindly furnished by the renowned Irish biographer and encyclopaedist Diarmuid Breathnach of County Wicklow, Ireland.
Born in 1930, Diarmuid was educated at University College Dublin and became a librarian in Kilkenny, then a sound archivist and chief librarian at RTÉ from 1974 to 1986. His major achievement is the compilation, with Máire Ní Mhurchú, of Beathaisnéis, a multi-volume dictionary of modern Gaelic culture. On May 17, 2002, the National University of Ireland conferred honarary degrees – The Degree of Doctor of Celtic Studies – upon Diarmuid Breathnach and Máire Ní Mhurchú at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth.

Our heart-felt gratitude goes to Diarmuid for his kind efforts with the Irish translation of the Martin Doyle’s homepage – thank you Diarmuid!
