Worries about Net Zero, mass immigration and Covid vaccines are being targeted as "conspiracy theories" in Labour's National Curriculum review. But the commissioners have some weird ideas of their own, says Steven Tucker.

Ó Conaire an reabhlóidí

category galway | arts and media | press release author Wednesday December 10, 2003 01:06author by John Cunningham - Coiste Uí Chonaireauthor email johnliamsheain at eircom dot net Report this post to the editors

San oíche Dé hAoine seo  chugainn déanfaidh an Eite Chlé i nGaillimh iarracht scéal saoil an scríbhneora Pádraic Ó Conaire a shaoradh ón ngreim scornaigh atá ag an Aicme Cheannais air le fada. Déanfaidh Coiste Uí Chonaire comóradh dátheangach ar shaothar Phádraic Uí Chonaire ag a 8 a chlog san oíche Dé hAoine, 12 Nollaig, in Áras na nGael, Sr. Doiminic.

Léireoidh Diarmuid de Faoite cuid dá sheó aonair faoi Ó Conaire, léifidh scríbhneoir radacach eile as Gaillimh, an file Rita Ann Higgins, cuid de scríbhinní Phádraic agus roinnt ábhair léi féin. Tabharfaidh Aindrias Ó Cathasaigh léacht i nGaeilge faoin gConaireach (seo é an fear a scríobh leabhar faoi Mháirtín Ó Cadhain le gairid). Labharfaidh an staraí ar chúrsaí saothair, an Dr. John Cunningham, faoi Ó Conaire i mBéarla.

    

Tá sé ráite ag Seosamh Ó Cuaig as Coiste Uí Chonaire nach mbeadh glacadh ar bith ag Pádraic Ó Conaire le cuid den Aicme Cheannais atá in ainm is a bheith ag déanamh cuimhneacháin air i mbliana, 75 bliain thréis a bháis --- leithéidí Éamoin Uí Chuív agus ionadaithe oifigiúla as Bardas na Gaillimhe.

"Bhí Pádraic Ó Conaire in aghaidh an mhíleatachais, " a dúirt Ó Cuaig:  "idirnáisiúnaí a bhí ann. Dá mbeadh sé beo inniu bheadh sé ag léirsiú in aghaidh Aerfort na Sionainne agus aerspás na tíre seo a bheith tugtha ag rialtas na hÉireann do lucht míleata Mheiriceá le ionsaí a dhéanamh ar an Iaráic. Bhí Ó Conaire gníomhach sa gcuid ab fhearr den pholaitíocht agus scríobh sé cuid mhór altanna ag seasamh le cothrom na Féinne. Is beag an mheas a bheadh aige ar an gcaoi a bhfuil Bardas na Gaillimhe ag iarraidh cead cainte a chosc sa gcathair faoi láthair."

            Tá sé d'aidhm ag Coiste Uí Chonaire scríbhinní radacacha Phádraic a chur ar fáil níos foirleithne. Ní mórán a thuigeann anois chomh gníomhach agus a bhí sé. Chuidigh sé le bunú an Cheardchumainn Iompair agus Saothair i nGaillimh, thug sé tacaíocht do Réabhlóid na Rúise, bhí sé ó am go chéile i bpáirtithe Lucht Oibre agus Cumannacha.

         Dúirt Seosamh Ó Cuaig go bhfuil súil ag an gCoiste na miotais a cumadh faoin gConaireach a scaipeadh. "SeanPhádraic a tugadh air," a duirt sé "ach ní raibh sé sean riamh (ní raibh sé ach 46 bliain nuair a cailleadh é.) Finscéal is mó atá sna scéalta faoin Asal Beag Dubh. Tá áibhéil freisin sna tuairiscí faoin méid óil a rinne sé. Ceannródaí a bhí ann ag cruthú litríochta nua-aimseartha i nGaeilge agus, d'fhear a fuair bás chomh hóg, d'fhág sé saothar den scoth ina dhiaidh."
