A SAHA Conversation with Professor Rob Dunbar

’S e Seachdain na Gàidhlig a th’ ann!

Welcome to a new episode of SAHA Conversations, a podcast by the Scottish Arts and Humanities Alliance (SAHA).

In this episode, we will be in conversation with Professor Rob Dunbar, Chair of Celtic Languages, Literature, History and Antiquities at the University of Edinburgh. 

Prior to assuming the Chair of Celtic at Edinburgh in June 2013, Professor Dunbar was Senior Research Professor at the University of the Highlands and Islands, a lecturer then senior lecturer in Law at the University of Glasgow (1995-2004) and reader in Celtic and Law at the University of Aberdeen (2004-2010).

In the next 25 minutes, Professor Dunbar will take us on a journey from Canada to Scotland, tell us more about the Gaelic Language (Scotland) Act 2005 and the creation of BBC Alba, share his favourite Gaelic expression and so much more!
