Kenneth Nicholls

Staraí Éireannach a bhfuil ardmheas air is ea Kenneth W. Nicholls. 

Bhain Nicholls clú agus cáil idirnáisiúnta amach mar údar an tsaothair Gaelic and Gaelicised Ireland in the Middle Ages, a foilsíodh ar dtús sa bhliain 1972, agus arís sa bhliain 2003.  Tá meas bainte amach fosta aige as ucht a chuid eolais ar fhoinsí meánaoiseacha agus nua-aimseartha as Gaeilge, Laidin, Francis agus Béarla.  I measc a suimeanna gairmiúla, tá a leanas:
 Éire sa meánaoise dhéanach agus sa leath ré nua-aimseartha, faoi ábhair amhail is gineolaíocht, logainmneacha, pósadh agus dlí
 stair Albanach, dlí ach go háirithe 
 díothú ainmhithe le linn na ré stairiúla
 Stair talamhaíochta

Ball foirne sa roinn staire Choláiste na hOllscoile, Corcaigh ba Nicholls go dtí go ndeachaigh sé ar scor sa bhliain 2004.  Bhí sé fostaithe ag an Institiúid Ard-Léinn Bhaile Átha le tréimhse le linn na 1960í.
