M\u00e9ar\u00f3g ar a charn<\/h5>

T\u00e1<\/span> a fhios ag an Saol Gaelach, faoi seo, gur bh\u00e1saigh an t-\u00fadar c\u00e1ili\u00fail, Frank McCourt, ar na mallaibh, agus mar mh\u00e9ar\u00f3g ar a charn, ba mhaith liom p\u00edosa beag a scr\u00edobh sa chol\u00fan seo, faoin leabhar deiridh a shil \u00f3na pheann l\u00edofa. N\u00edl m\u00e9 ag tagairt anseo do, <\/span>Angela\u2019s Ashes<\/span><\/strong>, n\u00f3 do, <\/span>\u2019Tis<\/span><\/strong>,<\/span> <\/span><\/strong>an d\u00e1 leabhar ba ch\u00e1ili\u00fala uaidh, ach t\u00e1 m\u00e9 ag tagairt don leabhar deiridh d\u00e1 chuid, s\u00e9 sin, do <\/span>Teacher Man, <\/span><\/strong>leabhar a scr\u00edobh s\u00e9, le cur s\u00edos a dh\u00e9anamh ar ar bhain d\u00f3, agus \u00e9 i mbun a cheird mar mh\u00fainteoir, i Scoileanna \u00e9ag<\/span>s\u00fala i gCathair mh\u00f3r Nua Eabhrac. T\u00e1 s\u00e9 soil\u00e9ir \u00f3 th\u00fas, go bhfuil muid ag pl\u00e9 le duine umhal, carthannach, fiosrach, agus le duine a raibh tine ina bholg, de sh\u00edor \u00e1 thiom\u00e1int i dtreo na foirfeachta i gceird na m\u00fainteoireachta.<\/span><\/p>

Cl\u00fa agus C\u00e1il<\/h5>

T\u00e1\u2019s ag madra\u00ed an bhaile anois, faoi mar a d\u2019\u00e9irigh leis dul i gcionn ar an saol m\u00f3r, lena dh\u00e1ir\u00edreacht, agus lena mhac\u00e1ntacht in <\/span>Angela\u2019s Ashes. <\/span><\/strong>T\u00e1id ann adeir, nach bhfuil sa leabhar sin ach cumad\u00f3ireacht agus fianna\u00edocht, agus gur scr\u00edobhadh \u00e9 le freastal ar bhriongl\u00f3id\u00ed Ghael Mheirice\u00e1, ach n\u00ed mar sin at\u00e1, in <\/span>aon chor, n\u00f3 sa leabhar sin, d\u00e9anann an t-\u00fadar cur s\u00edos ar an saol, faoi mar a bh\u00ed i measc a mhuintire, le linn a \u00f3ige-sean i gcathair Luimn\u00ed. N\u00ed hamh\u00e1in go raibh siad bocht, ach bh\u00ed siad an-bhocht. Thug s\u00e9 faoi deara, faoi mar a di\u00faltaiodh d\u00f3 fh\u00e9in is d\u00e1 mhuintir, nuair a rinne a athair iarracht ar \u00e1it a fh\u00e1il d\u00f3 mar chl\u00e9ir<\/span>each Aifrinn. Agus ar\u00eds, thug s\u00e9 faoi deara, an chaoi a raibh ar a mh\u00e1thair d\u00e9irc a lorg \u00f3 shagairt, le goblach a choinne\u00e1il lena h\u00e1l. Ach taobh ar taobh leis an mbochtaineacht uil\u00edoch sin, feicimid mar a chabhraigh daoine lena ch\u00e9ile, agus an chaoi ar theastaigh \u00f3n \u00fadar fh\u00e9in a bhealach a dh\u00e9anamh chun tosaigh. Tuigtear d\u00f3 fh\u00e9in gur mhill an bhochtaineacht ch\u00e9anna sin a mhisneach agus a spiorad, agus gur leag s\u00ed \u00e9 i mbogach an easpa muin\u00edne, agus d\u2019fh\u00e9adfadh cuid\u00edn eic\u00ednt den cheart a bheith aige sa mheid <\/span>sin, ach le filleadh ar <\/span>Teacher Man<\/span><\/strong>… caithfidh m\u00e9 a r\u00e1, go ndeachaigh an leabhar c\u00e9anna sin i bhfeidhm go m\u00f3r orm fh\u00e9in, n\u00f3 t\u00e1 d\u00e1ir\u00edreacht, mac\u00e1ntacht, agus neamhurch\u00f3id, le feice\u00e1il go soil\u00e9ir tr\u00edd na sc\u00e9il\u00edn\u00ed uilig, \u00f3 th\u00fas deireadh. An M\u00e1istir ag pl\u00e9 lena ranganna, a ch\u00e9aduair, agus ansin, lena dhalta\u00ed mar dhaoine daonna, at\u00e1 \u00e1 chur os \u00e1r gcomhair ag an \u00fadar, sa leabhar seo.<\/span><\/p>

That Irish Childhood !<\/h5>

Breathnaigh ar an gcaoi a chuireann s\u00e9 t\u00fas leis an sc\u00e9al, sa ch\u00e9ad chaibidil…<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIf I knew anything about psychology, I\u2019d be able to blame all my troubles on my miserable childhood in Ireland. That terrible childhood took away my confidence and filled me with self-pity; it made me afraid of my emotions, jealous of other people, unable to obey orders, and frightened of the opposite sex…..So, it\u2019s surprising that I ever managed to become a teacher.<\/p>

Sea, mh\u2019anam! Ach n\u00ed d\u00f3igh liom go gcreidfeadh m\u00f3r\u00e1n daoine go raibh an t-\u00fadar lom d\u00e1ir\u00edre sa r\u00e1iteas sin, go h\u00e1irithe, nuair a chuireann t\u00fa san \u00e1ireamh, gur chaith an fear c\u00e9anna<\/span> sin triocha bliain d\u00e1 shaol i mbun na m\u00fainteoireachta c\u00e9anna sin, i gcathair mh\u00f3r Nua Eabhrac, \u00e1it a chuirfeadh sceon i gcro\u00ed m\u00fainteora ar bith! Sea, agus i rith na mblianta sin freisin, bh\u00ed de mhisneach aige, tuilleadh staid\u00e9ir Ollscoile a dh\u00e9anamh, staid\u00e9ar a chuirfeadh ar a chumas dul chun cinn a dh\u00e9anamh sa ch\u00f3ras scola\u00edochta, agus sa tsl\u00ed sin, go n-\u00e9ireodh leis dul i gcionn n\u00edos fearr ar a dhalta\u00ed.<\/span><\/p>

Ach ag tagairt d\u00e1 r\u00e1iteas thuas, go ndeachaigh a thabhairt suas agus a scola\u00edocht fh\u00e9in go m\u00f3r ina choin<\/span>ne, nuair a chuaigh s\u00e9 i gcionn oibre thall, nach lu\u00edfeadh s\u00e9 le r\u00e9as\u00fan, gurb \u00e9 a mhalairt ar fad a bheadh f\u00edor, n\u00f3 n\u00e1r chuir a thabhairt suas fh\u00e9in ar a chumas, na dalta\u00ed bochta \u00f3 ch\u00falshr\u00e1ideanna Nua Eabhrac a thuiscint n\u00edos fearr n\u00e1 mar a dh\u00e9anfadh a chomhmh\u00fainteoir\u00ed thall?<\/span><\/p>

\u201cAngela\u2019s Ashes\u201d<\/h5>

Tugann muid faoi deara freisin, an t-ionad gradamach a thuill a ch\u00e9ad-leabhar, <\/span>Angela\u2019s Ashes<\/span><\/strong> d\u00f3, agus an chaoi ar tugadh aird domhanda air, as ucht an leabhar sin amh\u00e1in sin a scr\u00edobh, agus ar an dtaobh eile den sc\u00e9al, n\u00edor thug <\/span>\u00e9inne aird ar bith air as an triocha bliain a chaith s\u00e9 mar mh\u00fainteoir i gcathair mh\u00f3r Nua Eabhrac! <\/span><\/p>

B\u2019iontach mar a bhain Frank McCourt \u00fas\u00e1id as an sc\u00e9ala\u00edocht mar uirlis oideachais i measc na ndalta\u00ed sin. Agus n\u00edos ionta\u00ed n\u00e1 sin fh\u00e9in, gur chuir na dalta\u00ed st\u00f3insithe sin suim ina sc\u00e9alta, \u00f3 th\u00fas. N\u00ed raibh siad cinnte riamh c\u00e9ard a dh\u00e9anfadh an t\u00c9ireannach bu<\/span>ile sin a bh\u00ed acusan mar mh\u00fainteoir, agus d\u00e1 bhr\u00ed sin, bh\u00edd\u00eds ag faire amach i gc\u00f3na\u00ed, f\u00e9achaint c\u00e9n toradh a bheadh ar a mbligearda\u00edocht fh\u00e9in i rang Mhic Cuarta.<\/span><\/p>

T\u00e1 m\u00e9 cinnte go mbainfidh t\u00fa taitneamh agus toit as an leabhar seo, n\u00f3 t\u00e1 slua iontach carachtar ann, carachtair a bhainfidh g\u00e1ire as anois, agus a bhainfidh deoir asat ar ball, n\u00f3 b\u00edodh go bhfuil siad st\u00f3insithe, seanaimseartha, ag an am gc\u00e9anna, t\u00e1 siad mac\u00e1nta, neamhurch\u00f3ideach, d\u00e1ir\u00edreach. <\/span><\/p>

Cr\u00edoch Chu\u00ed ?<\/h5>

Breathnaith mar a chuireann an t-\u00fadar cr\u00edoch leis an leabhar seo. T\u00e1 s\u00e9 ag \u00e9ir\u00ed as an m\u00fainteoireacht, agus seo a rang deiridh cr\u00edochnaithe aige. Buaileann an clog, agus……………<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe bell rang, and they all said goodbye to me. I was told to have a good life. I wished them, the same. As I left the classroom for the last time, a voice called out to me.<\/p>

\u2018Hey, Mr. McCourt, you should write a book.\u2019<\/span><\/p>

I\u2019ll try.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Cr\u00edoch chu\u00ed, oiri\u00fanach, le triocha bliain m\u00fainteoireachta, agus comhairle chu\u00ed \u00f3 dhuine anaithnid d\u00e1 dhalta\u00ed. N\u00edor bronnadh fi\u00fa uairead\u00f3ir \u00f3ir air, tar \u00e9is a shaothair go l\u00e9ir! <\/h4>

Ach, nach \u2019in an saol agat, a mhiceo?<\/h4>
