Overview: SEAMUS HEANEY (1939-2013) was an Irish poet, playwright, translator and lecturer, and the recipient of the 1995 Nobel Prize in Literature “for works of lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which exalt everyday miracles and the living past.”
Robert Lowell called Heaney “the most important Irish poet since Yeats”, and many others have echoed the sentiment that he was among the greatest poets of our age. Upon his death in 2013, The Independent described him as “probably the best-known poet in the world.” Part of his popularity stems from his subject matter — modern Northern Ireland, its farms and cities beset with civil strife, its natural culture and language overrun by English rule. His poetry is known for its aural beauty and finely-wrought textures. Often described as a regional poet, he is also a traditionalist who deliberately gestures back towards the “pre-modern” worlds of William Wordsworth and John Clare.
