Abstract

Oliver St John Gogarty – Otolaryngologist to fashionable Edwardian Dublin – was a distinguished poet and a Senator in the fledgling Irish Free State after its establishment in 1922. He numbered amongst his acquaintances the poet William Butler Yeats, the novelist James Joyce and a host of political and literary persona who helped to shape modern Ireland. He was satirised as ‘stately plump Buck Mulligan’ in Joyce's novel Ulysses.
