Bhí Breandán Ó Madagáin ina Ollamh le Nua-Ghaeilge in Ollscoil na hÉireann, Gaillimh, ó 1975 -1997. Is mó an méid daoine a thit faoina thionchar i rith an ama sin, agus is saibhre dá bharr a n-eolas agus a dtuiscint ar an Ghaeilge, agus ar na traidisiúin a bhaineann léi, an amhránaíocht go háirithe. Tá an cnuasach aistí seo, óna iar chomhghleacaithe agus iar scoláirí, curtha le chéile in ómós don Ollamh Ó Madagáin.
Tá sé ina chomhartha aitheantais agus buíochas acu dó as a shaibhreas a roinnt leo, agus as an obair a rinne sé do léann na Gaeilge.

Breandán Ó Madagáin was professor of modern Irish at NUI Galway from 1975 – 1997, and during this time he enriched the lives of the many people he encountered with his knowledge and passion for the Irish language and its traditions.
This collection of essays from former colleagues and students has been put together in his honour, as a gesture of respect and thanks for his generosity in sharing his vast knowledge, and for his tireless work in the study of Irish.
