Talk:Thomas Moore

Topics

Recently a post in the Daily Guru attributed this phrase to Thomas Moore.

"We have to decide for ourselves what’s nourishing to our souls, and do those things over others."

Can anyone confirm if this is accurate, and what work it is from? Thanks in advance.

"an Irish speaking Gaeltacht in Kerry" is redundant, since a gaeltacht is an Irish speaking area; I propose "the Kerry Gaeltacht (Irish speaking area)". Davide

Among the list of Moore's works is the poem, "Lines on the Death of Sheridan (Morning Chronicle, June 1816)". It is hard to know how it is possible that Moore published a eulogy for Richard Brinsley Sheridan in June, when Sheridan did not actually die until July. Perhaps this is an error?

=?"Anacreon Moore"?

Is this the poet referred to as "Anacreon Moore" by contemporaries? If so, the nickname might be of interest. rewinn 05:39, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

=Believe me if all...

Allegedly this song was written for Moore's wife when she developed a skin complaint and was worried he would fall out of love with her. Is it worth mentioning in the article along with the Bugs Bunny bit? (79.190.69.142 (talk) 19:32, 29 September 2008 (UTC))

References

There is a Kelly in the references, but which one:

• Kelly, Linda (2007): Ireland's Minstrel: A Life of Tom Moore: Poet, Patriot and Byron's Friend
• Kelly, Ronan (2009): Bard of Erin: The Life of Thomas Moore

Ok, to answer my own question, I think it is Ronan Kelly. See article on Norwegian Wikipedia. --Finn Bjørklid (talk) 07:37, 5 February 2011 (UTC)

Early Life and First Success

These sections are short on dates. When did Thomas move from Dublin to London, for example? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spathaky (talk • contribs) 16:07, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation

We have a lot of Thomas Moores listed at Thomas Moore (disambiguation). Unless there's good reason not to, I propose to move this page to Thomas Moore (poet) and move the disambiguation page to here. --Dweller (talk) 11:00, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

But the disambiguation page abounds with Toms, Tommys, Thomas with middle initial, and so on. I think this is sufficient acknowledgement that "Thomas Moore" is first and foremost the Irish poet. There is a note at the top of the article refering to the disambiguation page, that should be enough. My modest opinion. Anyone else? Aklein62 (talk) 14:42, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

I checked this, but not only has the original source gone, but the archive on the Wayback Machine, too. So I deleted the reference altogether. – Aklein62 (talk) 09:56, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
