Seamus+Heaney

Some extra, more literary, reading on Seamus Heaney. [|Anger and nostalgia: Seamus Heaney and the ghost of the father] This is only the first 600 words, but nontheless useful: [|from Literary Encyclopedia] Read the introduction and then the second half of this essay (the first half is about another poet) [|Hurt into Poetry: The Political Verses of Seamus Heaney and Robert Bly] [|Catching the heart off guard: the generous vision of Seamus Heaney]

Some background material: [|Let's Meet The Bog People...] [|Conflict and Politics in Northern Ireland (1968 to the Present)]

and a site well work exploring that gathers a whole lot of stuff together [|THE SEAMUS HEANEY PAGE]
