Description du livre
Seamus Heaney was presented by Robert Lowell as "the best Irish poet since Yeats". He is undoubtedly one of the most important contemporary authors, one of the most endearing too. Each of the articles, gathered here, addresses a particular aspect of his poetry. Without claiming to be an exhaustive study, this volume nevertheless proposes a journey into the confines of Heaney's imagination, discovering his attachment to the land of Ireland, tradition and rituals, exposing the different layers of meaning of the poem, discovering symbolic networks, or studying the birth and gestation of the new myth of the moor.
