Má tá aon bhaint ag an sloinne Mac Gearailt leatsa, seo an leabhair duitse. Is as saol Mhuiris a fhásann na téarmaí agus ton formhór na dánta. Chuireadh ar altramas i dtús a shaol, rud a bhí coitianta san ré sin. Phós sé, chaill a mhuintir a thalamh agus cinnte thaistil sé ar an bhMór Roinn. Tugann dánta Mhuiris léargas dúinn ní hamháin ar shaol file san sé h-aois déag in Éirinn ach léifimid aoir agus dánta molta i slí deas éasca nádúrtha. Cabhraíonn an foclóirín ag an gcúl fíor-thaitneamh a bhaint as an gcnuasach shaibhir tábhachtach seo.

Absolutely compulsory reading for any Fitzgerald descendant. Muiris’ exciting life sets the themes and tone for many of these poems. His life began with the traditional fostering period, the loss of family land and property, marriage and travel overseas. His poetry portrays not only a poet’s life in Ireland of the sixteenth-century, but a natural means to the intricacies of the “Aoir”/ Irish satire and other poetry styles of the time. A foclóir in the back enhances the reading.
