Aonghus of the DivinityTimeline (16th Century)
|
|
We know little about Aonghus Fionn Ó Dlaigh, known as Aonghus na Diagachta (Aonghus of the Divinity)'. He flourished in the late sixteenth century. Over fifty poems survive, mostly of a deeply religious nature. He had a school of poetry in Duhallow, Co. Cork, at a time — from 1530 onwards — when ordinances were being issued to destroy the native literary classes (“Yryshe minstrels, rymours, shannaghes & bardes”). |
