John MacHale[1] (Irish: Seán Mac Éil;[2] 6 March 1789 (or 1791) – 7 November 1881) was the Irish Roman Catholic Archbishop of Tuam, and Irish nationalist.
He laboured and wrote to secure Catholic Emancipation, legislative independence, justice for tenants and the poor, and vigorously assailed the proselytizers and the government's proposal for a mix-faith national school system. He preached regularly to his flock in Irish and "almost alone among the Bishops he advocated the use of Irish by the Catholic clergy".[3]
^The spelling MacHale is adopted by the Catholic Hierarchy site, and his biographer.
^The original publication of MacHale's translation of the Iliad gave his name as "Seághan, Árd-Easbog Túama"(sic), i.e. "John, Archbishop of Tuam.[1] In later contexts, MacHale's name is usually given as Seán Mac Héil or Seán Mac hÉil. A 1981 reprint of MacHale's translation of the Iliad, Íliad Hóiméar, leabhair I-VIII, gives his name as Seán Mac Héil.[2] Áine Ní Cheanainn's Leon an Iarthair : aistí ar Sheán Mac Héil, Ardeaspag Thuama, 1834–1881 (1983) also uses Seán Mac Héil.[3] However, Peter A. Maguire's "Language and Landscape in the Connemara Gaeltacht" in the Journal of Modern Literature (26.1, Fall 2002, pp. 99–107) uses Seághan Mac Éil and the name is also given as Eoin Mac Héil by some sources.[4]
