This book provides the first overview of classical presences in
Anglophone Irish poetry after 1960. Featuring detailed studies of
Seamus Heaney, Michael Longley, Derek Mahon, and Eavan Boland,
including close readings of key poems, it highlights the evolution
of Irish poetic engagements with Greece and Rome in the last sixty
years. It outlines the contours of a 'movement' which has
transformed Irish poetry and accompanied its transition from a
postcolonial to a transnational model, from sporadic borrowings of
images and myths in the poets' early attempts to define their own
voices, to the multiplication of classical adaptations since the
late 1980s -- at first at a time of personal and political crises,
notably in Northern Ireland, and more recently, as manifestations
of the poets' engagements with European and other foreign
literatures.
