An Gael (the Gael) is a quarterly magazine published in New York, entirely in the Irish language. We have writers from all over the world, both established and brand new. Our magazine is a revival (starting in March of 2009) of An Gaodhal (which is just the old spelling of An Gael), originally published in Brooklyn, NY, from 1881 to 1904. The Brooklyn-based bilingual monthly newspaper An Gaodhal (1881-1898), was the first serial dedicated to providing content to an Irish-language readership.

The magazine is published by the Philo-Celtic Society, which also dates back to 1872, originally in New York and now a world-wide organization. The Philo-Celtic is dedicated to encouraging and advancing the use of Irish throughout the world.
