Gaelic League
Conradh na Gaeilge (The Gaelic League) is an organization "for the purpose of keeping the Irish language spoken in Ireland." It was founded in Dublin on July 31, 1893 by Douglas Hyde, a Protestant and a Unionist from Frenchpark, County Roscommon. Other founders included Eugene O'Growney, Eoin MacNeill, and others. It developed from the earlier Gaelic Union and became the leading institution promoting the Gaelic Revival. The league's newspaper was An Claidheamh Soluis ("The Sword of Light") and its most noted editor was Patrick Pearse.
