  • Research on Use of the Irish Language on Radio
    Research on use of the Irish language on radio January 2018 Dr John Walsh, National University of Ireland, Galway Dr Rosemary Day, Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick 1. Introduction The Irish language has had a role in broadcasting since the establishment of Ireland’s first radio station 2RN in 1926. The founders of the state imagined that radio would play a key role in the development of Irish identity in nation-building (Watson, 2003; Pine, 2002; Day, 2012). Following the consolidation of the existing Dublin and Cork stations in 1933, a national audience could hear programmes in Irish for the first time, due to the introduction of a high-powered transmitter in Athlone. Although a separate service was promised for the Gaeltacht in 1926, a distinct station did not materialise until 1972, with the establishment of Raidió na Gaeltachta (Day, 2012). Some Irish is broadcast on RTÉ’s other radio stations but as a full-time national broadcaster, RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta provides the majority of Irish language radio broadcasts in the country. Following the introduction of the Radio and Television Act of 1988, the pirate stations that had proliferated during the 1970s and 1980s were put off the air and new commercial broadcasters were licensed. Irish was granted only limited recognition in the schedules of these stations that came on air from 1989 onwards. As a result of a campaign by language activists in Dublin, Raidió na Life was established in 1993 as a community of interest service to serve Irish speakers in the capital (Ó Drisceoil, 2007).

Age after age have they dwelt by the side of Galway Bay. asserting and main- taining supreme control over its fishing—a right which is theirs by a prescription older than the oldest tradition. For ages long they have been the near neighbors of the people of Gal- way, yet are even now as distinct from them, as jealous of their intrusion amongst them, and as strongly marked in their pecu- liarities as they ever were. Time, and the resistless force of modern "progress," maybe silently softening down some of the prejudices to which they were so obstinately wedded, and effacing some of the broadest lines of separation between them and their neighbors, but, intrenched in the stronghold of their harsh patois, and entirely devoted to their hereditary avocations, the main features of their character remain the same as in ages past.
