	Dalkey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dalkey (Deilginis in Irish) is a town in southern County Dublin.
		Dalkey Quarry is a disused granite quarry, stone from which was used in the 19th century to build Dún Laoghaire harbour, and is now a popular rock-climbing location within Killiney Hill Park.
		Dalkey is served by the DART, the line of which passes through a tunnel south of Dalkey, emerging on a cliff giving spectacular views over Killiney Bay.

	DALKEY - LoveToKnow Article on DALKEY
		Dalkey Island, lying off the town, has an ancient ruined chapel, of the history of which nothing is certainly known, and a disused battery, which protected the harbour, a landing-place of some former importance.
		A castle in the town, of the r5th century, is restored to use as offices for the urban district council.
		Until the close of the 18th century Dalkey was notorious for the burlesque election of a king, a mock ceremony which became invested with a certain political importance.

	Parish of Dalkey (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Dalkey has a history, like Bullock, before its castles were built, and, until the beginning of the 19th century, rock monuments, dating from the time of the primitive inhabitants, were to be seen near the town.
		During the 8th century Dalkey was the scene of a battle between two Irish tribes, and Forgartach, son of Niall, King of Ireland, fell by the hand of Cinoeth, son of Ingalach, on its plain.
		The close of the 16th century marks the disuse of Dalkey, and the adoption of Ringsend as the port of Dublin, and from that time the town lost its importance commercially, and soon became ruinous.

		Gardaí have begun excavating the garden of a small two-storey house in Dalkey, Co Dublin, in an attempt to find the body of a young infant who may have died around 30 years ago.

	Response to Dalkey Quarry Forum. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The entire Dalkey and Killiney Hill area is a very special semi-wild amenity and no encrocahment on or degradation of its status should be contemplated by the responsible local authority.
		Dalkey is the nearest climbing amenity to the college and especially provides an ideal place to instruct new members of the club in belaying techniques due to its accessibility at the top of many of its routes.
		To see part of Dalkey quarry being turned into a halting site for the travelling community would be a great shame both to the climbing community and for the thousands of others it would affect eg.

		Dalkey has a chance to show tremendous character growth for Timoteo, the boy who is growing up in the Casa Santa.

	Kara Dalkey: Bhagavati
		Dalkey has taken on a great deal in trying to relate the various groups and showing their interactions, however, she is successful in their depictions.
		Although Chinnery is very definitely the protagonist in Goa and Bijapur, he loses his centrality in Bhagavati as Dalkey turns her focus and attentions to the Goddess and her minions.
		Dalkey's descriptions are lush when her characters first attain Bhagavati, but familiarity quickly moves them into the background.

	Kara Dalkey, Steel Rose (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Dalkey's Steel Rose has a lot in common with novels such as War For the Oaks by Emma Bull and Charles de Lint's Jack of Kinrowan.
		She becomes the steel rose of the title, combining strength and beauty, that which is crafted and that which is of nature.
		Dalkey is a lively writer and an entrancing storyteller, creating characters you care about who are playing out an exciting and engrossing story.

	Jaded Ibis Productions, Inc.: THE PRESENT TENSE: e-dialog between R. M. Berry & John O'Brien
		In some ways, the very question—though I am not sure that this was the intention—suggests a kinship of sorts between what FC2 and Dalkey Archive are up to as presses, a kinship that, for a variety of reasons, a number of people over the years have assumed to exist.
		I agree with your final comment about the social insignificance of what we publish, or at least with the idea that, finally, the justification for our ventures can't be their impact on society in general, which by any ordinary measure has to be negligible.
		But to argue: I would say that, in the history of both presses, Dalkey's editors and many of its authors would be confounded or put off by conceptual art (and now I must hope that none sees this remark).

		Dalkey after reading her original take on "The Snow Queen" in the collected book of stories, "Firebirds: An Anthology of Original Fantasy and Science Fiction".
		Ah, if only other historical fantasies were as pretty and rich as this one is. Dalkey clearly has a handle on her Buddhist and Shinto folklore, as well as her historical knowledge of politics and customs.
		Dalkey's writing is spare and vaguely formal, but she gives plenty of detail to the supernatural scenes.

		But Dalkey doesn't just publish old books by non-American writers -- it's also the home for numerous American authors, including many still in their prime, thank you very much.
		Currently, Dalkey publishes about 16 books per year, 4-6 of which are new titles.
		And yet, interestingly enough, the press is doing better than ever, thanks precisely to the fact that mainstream publishers have adopted a repulsion similar to that of chain booksellers to books that are truly edgy or subversive or, often enough, particularly arty.

		Portugal's exotic colony of Goa, on India's western shore, was in the 16th century the farthest-flung outpost of Europe's fiercest and longest-lasting Inquisition.
		Dalkey's meticulous research pays off in ravishing atmospherics that highlight the aromas, sights, sounds and traditions that shroud malevolent European church-and-mercantile-state power politics on a mysterious subcontinent.
		Dalkey serves an exotic repast here, one that, like the exquisite spices of the Indies, tempts the palate with tantalizing hints of wonders yet to come.

	Dalkey Islands Tern Project
		Watching the waves crashing against the coast at Dalkey I feared the young birds and eggs not to mention the nestboxes couldn't possibly survive.
		The original initiative came from BirdWatch HQ and it was hoped Roseate Terns might be encouraged to breed among the Common and Arctic terns that nest on the outcrop of rock known as Maidens Rock (or Corrig).
		In other years usually one or two pairs of birds tried to nest there with mixed results, safe from the seas but in danger from rats and the goats that have been on the island for many years.

		Dalkey lays the local color on pretty thick, but her detail is almost entirely accurate, right down to the buslines.

		The origins of the council are to be found in the Dalkey Ladies Club in late 1973 when it was decided that a community council was necessary to help bind the diverse organisations in Dalkey into a coherent and vociferous unit to represent the population of the town.
		It was also decided to draft a questionnaire and seek the views of the people of Dalkey on what they saw as the purposes of the Community Council.
