James Lucey Ahern (1869-1949) born in Ballingeary, West Cork, was a professor of the Irish Language who wished the Irish language to become the vernacular of the country in the early 1900's. He was a member of the executive of the Gaelic League in Dublin where he joined Douglas Hyde, Eoin MacNeill and Padraig Pearse in their work to bring this dream to fruition. He was a pacifist and was inspired by Thomas Davis and his ideals. His dream at first seemed possible but gradually it became apparent that the Irish people themselves were reluctant to embrace such a move. Responding to the inevitable he continued to lecture on Irish History in the English language to wide ranging audiences at public events. Codice articolo 000901
