Scholar and poet Sir Samuel Ferguson was born in Belfast on this day in 1810. Due to his interest in Irish legends and mythology, he is believed to be a forerunner of William Butler Yeats and the Irish Literary Revival in general. Ferguson studied law at Trinity University, where he supported by contributing to Blackwood’s Magazine, and by later writing for Dublin University Magazine.

Many of Ferguson’s poems were written with both Irish and English translations.
