Irish translator
See more
Irish primer written by Seán Ó Cearnaigh, containing a Protestant catechism translated into Irish from a number of English-language sources, along with a letter to the reader and a version of the Articles of religion, and an alphabet of the Irish language. It was published in 1571 ‘in the house of alderman John Ussher’, in new Irish letter forms, and is known for being the first book in Irish to have been printed in Ireland. Like the translation of the Old and New Testament into Irish in later decades, its publication served a wider programme of propagating Protestantism among Irish Catholics by making use of the Irish language.
