We also encourage publishable correspondence and suggestions for books to review. Editorial Jeff Wallace Ecocriticism is the dominant theme of Key Words 2. The German elections of 1998 saw the Green Party secure an unprecedented degree of influence. British politics make for an interesting comparison. It now seems clear that Prescott's plans for a re-integrated, modernised transport system, which might begin to address the chaos left by deregulation and privatisation, have switched to a slow track in the Parliamentary agenda of Labour's first term in office. More prominently, at the time of writing, the debates around genetically modified food intensify, and Tony Blair gives Britain the benefit of his own personal conviction that 'GM' food is safe. Does the apparently extended courting of GM food concerns underline the Government's lack of interest in ethical or environmentally conscious questions which might seriously challenge the smooth working of the global market economy? Hilary Wainwright here highlights a gap between mainstream British politics and emergent modes of ecological politics which exemplify, both nationally and internationally, successful interventions in the production and distribution process, and in the organisation of work. She issues a timely reminder of the missed opportunity of the 1975-79 Labour Government, failing to build on the possibilities of democratic modernisation suggested, for example, by the 'Lucas Plan', and thereby leaving the way clear for the devastating alternative modernities of Thatcherism. But there is reason to think that changes in the contemporary public domain increasingly problematise the notion of a mainstream/periphery political divide. Ulrich Beck has argued that the very nature of 'risk society', committed headlong to industrial overproduction and thus to the generation of global and incalculable global risks, principally in the form of radioactivity, but also in toxins and pollutants, simultaneously precipitates an 'unbinding of politics’, characterised by a reflexivity implicit in the flourishing of 1 alternative sources of knowledge and modes of political participation. Richard Kerridge presents a set of less optimistic reflections on the power of the cultural sphere. Faced with the indeterminacies of the ecological crisis, environmental narratives such as the contemporary 'ecothriller', TV news bulletin or documentary, solicit an apocalyptic anxiety which is invariably contained in the security of closure or resolution. This sets 'a pattern for our responses to real ecological crisis' — a crisis which is, as Kerridge has elsewhere argued, 'also a cultural crisis, a crisis of representation. The inability of political cultures to address 1 Ulrich Beck, Risk Society: Towards a New Modernity, trans. Mark Ritter (London: Sage Publications, 1992). Key Words 2 (1999), pp. 5-6 Jeff Wallace 2 environmentalism is in part a failure of narrative.' Both essays remind us of the central question within environmentalism of agency or activism — of how to move or animate, and thus to intervene. It is worth noting that Paul Virilio's recent critique of 'dromospheric' pollution is based on a model of the cybernetic future as a condition of immobility and disability, 'attack(ing) the liveliness of the subject and the moblilty of the object by atrophying the journey to the point where it 3 becomes needless.' How far might an environmentally informed literary criticism constitute practical intervention? The debate initiated in Key Words 1 by Dominic Head is extended here in essays by Gerry Smyth and David Amigoni, each demonstrating that heightened reflexivity which for Beck distinguishes the environmental consciousness and its emancipatory potential. Thus, for Smyth, and somewhat paradoxically, an embrace of the 'ecocritical sublime' as a mode of critical engagement inspired by the 'anti- disciplinary' work of Benjamin, de Certeau and Derrida is qualified by Aijaz Ahmad's misgivings about the inwardness of reflexivity itself. Contesting the terms of Jonathan Bate’s comparison of Darwin and Wordsworth as, respectively, scientific and humanistic ecologists, Amigoni argues for a cultural materialism which can overcome this binary opposition in order to see them as engaged in a common discursive struggle within a specific but complex historical paradigm of ecology. We continue to publish a selection of work outside the dominant theme. Paul Jones argues that the mediation between political economy and cultural studies evident in Raymond Williams's work warns against reductive versions of either discipline. Declan Kiberd projects a post-colonial revision or re-invention of Englishness which might draw on the historically 'parabolic' nature of Irish culture's relation to its imperial oppressor. Jago Morrison finds familiar ideological representations of the deserving and undeserving poor underpinning New Labour's vision of welfare and society. And Deborah Cameron's analysis of 'work-provider' initiates her regular supplement to Williams' Keywords project.

Julie Rose (London: Verso, 1997). Key Words 6 Reading Nostalgia: Histories and Fictions of the Struggling Unemployed Jago Morrison In the 1998 government green paper New Ambitions For Our Country1 the first New Labour Employment Secretary Frank Field set out a privatised vision of welfare and society in 2020. Full employment is not amongst Labour’s new ambitions. Instead, a community is envisaged 'with people not only taking more personal responsibility for their own and their families’ well- being, but also more collective responsibility for policing the new system and preventing fraud' (81). After two decades of Labour government we can expect nothing more utopian than a 'reduction in the proportion of working age people living in workless households' (82). In the twenty-first century, the policy for people with chronic illnesses, disabilities or children is to render them 'in touch with the labour market' (82). In the ‘New Welfare Contract’ the duties of the individual are to be those of work, independence, saving, the subsidy of other family members and the undertaking 'not to defraud the taxpayer' (80).

  • The Development of the Poetry of Seamus Heaney Fro Death of a Naturalist to North
    The Development of the Poetry of Seamus Heaney From Death of a Naturalist to North by Byron Demitri Angelopulo A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of English, University of Cape Town, 1 April 1987. Supervisor:University Dr. I.E. of GlennCape Town The copyright of this thesis vests in the author. No quotation from it or information derived from it is to be published without full acknowledgement of the source. The thesis is to be used for private study or non- commercial research purposes only. Published by the University of Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. University of Cape Town Abstract Seamus Heaney's poetic development is examined through a series of close readings of selected poems from his first four volumes. The main focus of the di3sertation is on the stages through which he passes in his attempt to develop a poetic mode which is simultaneously responsive to the preoccu­ pations of the private self and to the wider political and cultural backdrop of Northern Ireland. Death of a Naturalist and Door into the Dark are examined in terms of the relation between poetic technique and historical situation. Correlatives of limitation characterise nearly all aspects of Heaney's poetic technique in the first volume. These are enumerated and examined. Enclosures at a conceptual rather than technical level are found to characterise Door into the Dark. The mode used threatens to become a form of self-enclosure, hermetically sealed off from the conditions of its production.

  • Thematic Concerns in the Select Poetry of Seamus Heaney Geethanjali R and Niranjan Patel J
    International Journal of English Literature and Social Sciences, 5(5) Sep-Oct 2020 |Available online: https://ijels.com/ Thematic Concerns in the select poetry of Seamus Heaney Geethanjali R and Niranjan Patel J Assistant Professor, Department of English, IDSG Government college, Chikmagaluru, Karnataka, India Abstract— Seamus Heaney is a great poet rooted in Irish history and culture, his setting is pastoral, one which belongs to the world of nature and Irish heritage and. Heaney has raised the voice of the national identity of the catholic people and has also invoked the support of the protestant Irish community to help them recreate a prosperous Ireland of native traditions. The life of the Irish people at the farming level, rural habits and several other items happening in the day to day life of these people supply raw material for imaginary and symbolism in the poetry of Seamus Heaney. By picking up symbols from the experience of a childhood he reconstructs complete image of the Irish people living in Ulster region, a community of minority Catholics engaged in homely activities like farming, digging, churning etc., without much caring for attaining higher stations of life in political fields or in economic framework of the industrialized society. Heaney has raised the voice of the national identity of the catholic people and has also invoked the support of the protestant Irish community to help them recreate a prosperous Ireland of native traditions His symbols are homely but effective to the Irish life.

  • The Political Commitment in the Poetry of Seamus Heaney
    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL "PROTECTIVE COLOURING" - THE POLITICAL COMMITMENT IN THE POETRY OF SEAMUS HEANEY BEING A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL BY ALAIN THOMAS YVON SINNER, BA APRIL 1988 PREFACE I came to Heaney's poetry through FIELD WORK, which I read for a seminar on contemporary British poetry when I was studying English at the University of Hull. At the time I knew nothing whatsoever about post-Yeatsian Irish poetry and so I was agreeably surprised by the quality of Heaney's work. Initially, it was not so much the contents of his poems, but the rhythms, the sound patterns, the physical immediacy of his poetry which I admired most. Accordingly, I concentrated on Heaney's nature and love poems. His political verse requires the reader to be more or less well informed about what was and still is going on in Northern Ireland and it was only gradually that I acquired such knowledge. After FIELD WORK, I read the SELECTED POEMS 1965-1975 and they became a kind of journey through the diverse aspects of Heaney's multi-faceted work. In the course of six years' research on Heaney I have come to study other poets from Ulster as well and, though I still feel that Heaney is the most promising talent, it seems to me that Ireland is once again making a considerable contribution to English literature. Heaney is definitely on his way to becoming a major poet. The relevance of his work is not limited to the Irish context; he has something to say to ENGLISH ' ********************************************************* 1 1 A1-1-i 1988 Summary of Thesis submitted for PhD degree by Alain T.Y.

    UNIT 25 SEAMUS HEANEY Ted Hughes Structure 25.0 Objectives 25.1 Introduction 25.2 Seamus Heaney (13 April 1939- 30 August 2013) 25.3 Death of a Naturalist 25.3.1 Introduction 25.3.2 The Text 25.3.3 Analysis 25.4 Let Us Sum Up 25.5 Answers to Self-Check Exercises 25.0 OBJECTIVES After you have read this unit, you will be able to: • Critically respond to Seamus Heaney’s life and works • Understand the Irish contexts of his poetry • Examine the poem ‘Death of a Naturalist’- its artistic blending of form and theme, word/sound and meaning. • Write about blank verse • Appreciate poetic devices such as personification, pathetic fallacy, assonance, oxymoron alliteration, onomatopoeia etc. 25.1 INTRODUTION In this unit you will read about the life and works of Seamus Heaney. Heaney’s reputation as a contemporary poet far exceeds any other poet. As an Irish poet, he is regarded as the most able inheritor of W.B. Yeats. Reading about his life and works, you would be able to appreciate his growth as a poet. The poem we are reading in this unit is the title poem from Heaney’s first collection called Death of a Naturalist (1966). The poet expresses a disillusionment with nature felt by a young school boy, who had a scientific interest in nature prior to the experience described in the poem. Read the poem carefully, and then read the other sections. 25.2 SEAMUS HEANEY (13 APRIL 1939- 30 AUGUST 2013) Seamus Heaney was a translator, academician and a prose writer of great merit, but he is chiefly known for his poetry, which ranks among the best in the contemporary era.

  • Translating Heaney: a Study of Sweeney Astray, the Cure at Troy, and Beowulf
    Translating Heaney: A Study of Sweeney Astray, The Cure at Troy, and Beowulf A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at Rhodes University Peter William van der Woude January 2007 Abstract This thesis examines Seamus Heaney’s approach to translation with specific reference to Sweeney Astray, The Cure at Troy, and Beowulf. An assessment of Heaney’s translations, and the ways in which they relate to his poetry, is essential to an understanding of his work as a poet. This thesis demonstrates the centrality of translation to Heaney’s oeuvre as an effective means to comment on his Northern Irish socio-political context without producing political propaganda. Translation is a valuable means for Heaney to elucidate his contemporary experience by considering it in terms of the recorded past captured within his chosen translations. Instead of comparing the three translations with their original texts, this thesis concentrates on Heaney’s translations as a continuation of his own creative work and as catalysts for further poetry. The translations are explored in chronological order to allow a sense of Heaney’s development as a translator and his efforts to remain critically attuned to the Northern Irish political situation. The first chapter examines Heaney’s translation of the Gaelic poem Buile Suibhne, which is published as Sweeney Astray. In this first major act of translation Heaney recognises the political role that translation is able to play. He draws attention to the protagonist’s sense of cultural ease in both Britain and Ireland, which he argues is exemplary for the people of Ulster and renders the narrative particularly accessible to a Northern Irish readership due to his anglicisation of the text, which is intended as a reminder to both Catholics and Protestants of their shared identity as Irishmen.

  • Remembering Seamus
    shaun o’connell Neither Here nor There: Remembering Seamus first met Seamus Heaney after he read at Boston University in I 1976, at a reception hosted by Professor Helen Vendler on her patio along the Charles River in Cambridge. Affable, open, welcoming, Seamus greeted me like an old friend. He said I shared my name with a notable Derry Gaelic AA cornerback. I told Seamus that I was named after a Harvard halfback by a father who never went to college. He smiled at this serendipity and raised his glass in salute. This thin thread of name associa- tion became, in time, something of a family tie, for Seamus invited me, as he did so many, into his life — into both his actual and poetic landscapes: Heaney country — and changed my life in so doing. More than a lasting friend, Seamus became the brother I never had but chose. I knew then, of course, that Heaney was an original poetic voice; I’d read Death of a Naturalist (1966), Door into the Dark (1969), Wintering Out (1972), Stations (1975), and North (1975), the collection that gave him distinction among Irish poets.1 And I had heard him read his poems, as well as gloss them in extended asides — low rumbles delivered like pub snug chats, “between the fire and the wall” in Frank O’Connor’s phrase — which clarified and drew his audience into both their making and their meaning. But, from that first encounter, it was as much the man, Seamus Heaney, as it was the poet who mattered to me.
