  • Ba scríbhneoir Éireannach í Dervla Murphy (28 Samhain 1931 - 22 Bealtaine 2022) a bhí an-tugtha don taisteal, go mór mhór ar rothar nó, corruair, ar mhiúil nó ar chapall. Scríobh sí leabhar faoina cuid eachtraí taistil le corradh agus dhá scór bliain anuas. Rinne sí an chuid ba mhó den taisteal seo ina haonar nó lena hiníon, gan ach na rudaí is bunúsaí á dtabhairt léi ach ag brath ar fhlaithiúlacht na ndaoine áitiúla. In ainneoin cuid mhór den domhan a bheith siúlta aici, choimeád sí cónaí i gcónaí san áit ar rugadh í, is é sin, Lios Mór i gContae Phort Láirge. (ga)

  • Dervla Murphy (Lismore, 28 novembre 1931 – 22 maggio 2022) è stata un'avventuriera irlandese che ha intrapreso molti viaggi lunghi (da casa verso l'India, la Cina, l'Africa, ecc.) a piedi o in bicicletta, a volte con sua figlia Rachel. Dai suoi viaggi ha scritto dei libri, con il cui ricavato intraprende altri viaggi. La sua attività lavorativa era quella dell'infermiera, ma si è poi dedicata ai viaggi d'avventura. Murphy di solito viaggiava da sola e senza alcun aiuto esterno talvolta ritrovandosi in situazioni di pericolo. (it)
  • Dervla Murphy (Lismore, 28 november 1931 – aldaar, 22 mei 2022) was een Iers schrijfster van reisverhalen. Zij maakte reizen over de hele wereld, en schreef daar een groot aantal boeken over. Zij bereidt haar reizen nauwgezet voor. Zij geeft samenvattingen van hetgeen in de literatuur over bepaalde gebieden te vinden is. Zij dringt telkens diep in de binnenlanden door van de gebieden waar zij – te voet of met de fiets – doorheen reist, en voert gesprekken met “hoog en laag”. Murphy overleed thuis op 90-jarige leeftijd. (nl)
