range of poets, including household names, such as Jonathan Swift,
Thomas Moore, W. B. Yeats, Samuel Beckett, Seamus Heaney, Patrick
Kavanagh, Eavan Boland and Paul Muldoon. The book is comprised of
thirty chapters written by critics, leading scholars and poets, who
bring an authoritative and accessible understanding to their
subjects. Each chapter gives an overview of a poet's work and
guides the general reader through the wider cultural, historical
and comparative contexts. Exploring the dual traditions of English
and Irish-speaking poets, this Companion represents the very best
of Irish poetry and highlights understanding that reveals, in clear
and accessible prose, the achievement of Irish poetry in a global
context. It is a book that will help and guide general readers
through the many achievements of Irish poets.
