Thread Name: Lyr Add: Slan le Fionnairaigh /Farewell to Fiunary
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: SLAN LE FIONNAIRAIGH
This web site CLICK HERE credits "Farewell To Fiunary" to..." Dr Norman the elder who wrote "Fiunary,"--and not, as commonly stated, the late Dr Norman. His "Farewell to Fiunary" is probably the most universally-known modern poem in the West Highlands. (For critical remarks as to the authenticity of this poem, see Dr Nigel M'Neil's Literature of the Highlanders, pp. 283-286.)" -end quote from Lyra Celtica Notes

Philippa, I tried to find the article you linked to in your November 2000 message, but it is not on the site. Did it mention an author?
