    Croxall and Koeser • 2015 Belfast Group Poetry|Networks What Do We Mean When We Say “Belfast Group”? Brian Croxall [email protected] http://orcid.org/0000-0001-5602-6830 Rebecca Sutton Koeser [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8762-8057 June 2015 https://belfastgroup.ecds.emory.edu/essays/#what This essay was peer reviewed by Geraldine Higgins and Nathan Suhr-Sytsma . In creating a project to investigate the relationships among members of the Belfast Group, it is important to know exactly what that Group is. Being specific about this when creating our data was critical so we could accurately measure who was connected to this thing we call “the Belfast Group.” But, as often happens with humanities data, it turns out that things are a little messy. In this case, while the term originally refers to the writing workshop begun by Philip Hobsbaum, many critics and commentators have also used it to refer to the idea of a Belfast “school” of poets (see Clark 1, 6). Many members of this supposed school—Seamus Heaney and Michael Longley, among others—were, of course, participants in the writing workshop, which adds to the slippage between the two uses. But while it is demonstrably true that a writing workshop existed, it is less clear whether there was any unified purpose that might constitute a school; as Norman Dugdale put it, the “The Group had no manifesto, no corporate identity, no programme beyond providing a forum in which writers […] could produce their wares and have them discussed” (Dugdale et al.

    Precursors, the Environment and the West in Seamus Heaney’S “Postscript”

    Estudios Irlandeses, Issue 13, March 2018-Feb. 2019, pp. 69-81 __________________________________________________________________________________________ AEDEI Precursors, the Environment and the West in Seamus Heaney’s “Postscript” Ross Moore Independent scholar, Belfast Copyright (c) 2018 by Ross Moore. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged for access. Abstract. Being the final poem in Heaney’s 1996 collection The Spirit Level, situates the poem “Postscript” significantly in Heaney’s poetic oeuvre. The collection was Heaney’s first to be published after winning the Nobel Prize for literature, it was also his first published amidst the changed social and political context following the 1994 paramilitary ceasefires in Northern Ireland. Here, I will explore the manner in which “Postscript” interacts with previous work by Heaney. Looking closely at the language, imagery and procedures of the poem, I argue that the poem embodies a fundamental shift in Heaney's approach to the natural environment but that this change is reliant on poetic procedures which Heaney had come to trust early in his career. Heaney's descriptive precision and openness to the “marvellous” combine to produce a uniquely effective poem. “Postscript” treats the natural world and the human subject in a manner atypical of Heaney's procedures yet stands among his most accomplished work. I will consider the manner in which Heaney's poem simultaneously exists “post” the “scripts” of literature mythologizing the West of Ireland while remaining in close dialogue with perhaps the most famous of these: Yeats's poem “The Wild Swans at Coole”.

    Karina Van Dalen-Oskam

    Karina van Dalen-Oskam Huygens Institute for the History of the Netherlands (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences), The Hague Personal names in literature: a quantitative approach1 1 Introduction Is it possible to write a novel that does not have a single personal name in it? Or better perhaps: a readable novel? Undoubtedly there are more, but I know of only one that does not contain any names, be it personal, geographical, or other: Blindness, a novel by the Portugese 1998 Nobel Prize winner José Saramago. The novel describes how an unexplained mass epidemic of blindness afflicts nearly everyone in an unnamed city and depicts the horrible social breakdown that follows. The epidemic ends just as sudden and unexplained as it started. The characters in this novel do not get a name, but they are described with a noun phrase referring to what they are: the doctor, the doctor’s wife, the first blind man, the old man with the black eyepatch, the girl with dark glasses, the boy with the squint.2 Formally these noun phrases are not names but they are uniquely referring in the story world of the novel and thus share an important function with names. The avoidance of names has a clear function in the story, as can be illustrated with a quotation from the first part of the novel. Most of the main characters, being the very first group of people that went blind, have been placed in quarantine in an asylum. When a new group of blind men and women arrive in their ward, The doctor's wife remarked, It would be best if they could be counted and each person gave their name.

    HISTORIA DE UNA FASCINACIO´ N: BORGES EN HOLANDA En out of Context: Historical Reference and the Representation of Reality in B

    Neophilologus (2007) 91:83–100 Ó Springer 2007 DOI 10.1007/s11061-005-4247-9 HISTORIA DE UNA FASCINACIO´ N: BORGES EN HOLANDA MAARTEN STEENMEIJER Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen, Faculteit der Letteren, Afdeling Romaanse Talen en Culturen, Postbus 9044, 6500 KD, Nijmegen E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In Out of Context. Historical Reference and the Representation of Reality in Borges, Daniel Balderston claims that the interpretative practice of Jorge Luis Borges’s short stories has tended to focus on the ‘unreal’, that is, on its autoreferential, fictional and fantastic elements, and that, on the other hand, allusions and references to the concrete, historical reality in the work of the Argentinian writer have been disregarded or even neglected. In a departure from this dichotomist perspective, this article proposes a study of Borges’s reception in the Netherlands from the very beginning in the fifties until the present day, attempting to ascertain the positions and functions of Borges’s work in the Dutch literary system. 1. Introduccio´n En Out of Context: Historical Reference and the Representation of Reality in Borges (1993)1 el estudioso norteamericano Daniel Balderston comprueba que la praxis interpretativa de la ficcio´ nde Borges ha mostrado una inquietante miopı´ a al centrarse en los elementos autorreferenciales y ficticios o fanta´ sticos en menoscabo de las numerosas referencias a contextos histo´ ricos y polı´ ticos con- cretos que ofrecen los cuentos del autor argentino. Balderston refiere sobre todo a la crı´ tica universitaria pero es lı´ cito an˜ adir que sus observaciones valen asimismo para los crı´ ticos periodı´ sticos, los au- tores tributarios a Borges y, muy probablemente, el pu´ blico lector.
