Oliver Joseph St John Gogarty (August 17, 1878 - September 22, 1957) was an Irish poet, author, otolaryngologist, athlete, politician, and well-known conversationalist, who served as the inspiration for Buck Mulligan in Ulysses. Like Joyce he was educated at Clongowes Wood College for a time (1896-1898), and in 1898 he switched to the medical school at Trinity College.
A highly-visible and distinctive Dublin character during his lifetime, Gogarty appears in a number of memoirs penned by his contemporaries, notably George Moore's Hail and Farewell, where he goes both by his own name and by the pseudonym "Conan." His most famous literary incarnation, however, is as Buck Mulligan, the irrepressible roommate of Stephen Dedalus in James Joyce's Ulysses. Mulligan quotes a number of songs and poems known to have been written by Gogarty, the most famous of which, "The Song of the Cheerful (But Slightly Sarcastic) Jesus," was originally sent to Joyce as a belated Christmas peace offering after their quarrels of 1904. Other details, such as Mulligan's Hellenism, his status as a medical student, his history of saving men from drowning, his friendship with George Moore, and the metrical arrangement of his full name (Malachi Roland St. John Mulligan) parallel Gogarty's biography. The living arrangements of Mulligan and Stephen, however, differ sharply from those of Joyce and Gogarty; in Ulysses, Stephen Dedalus is the rentpayer and breadwinner of the Martello Tower off whom Mulligan carelessly sponges, an almost complete reversal of Joyce and Gogarty's actual positions during the summer of 1904. Due to his influence on Joyce (he is also sometimes cited as an inspiration for Dubliners character Ignatius Gallagher and Exiles antagonist Robert Hand), Gogarty's name often comes up in Joyce scholarship, though Gogarty's own editors and biographers complain that these references are frequently inaccurate, owing to Gogarty-related errata in Richard Ellmann's biography James Joyce (1959/1982) and a tendency to conflate the real-life Gogarty with the fictional character of Buck Mulligan.
