All of these subsequent shifts and developments were dependent, however, upon that original journey from Mossbawn which the poet has described as a removal from "the earth of farm labor to the heaven of education" ... (S. Heaney, Biography)
Feeling puny in my predicaments as I read about the tragic logic of Osip Mandelstam's fate in the 1930s - feeling challenged yet steadfast in my noncombatant status when I heard, for example - that one particularly sweetnatured school friend had been interned without trial because he was suspected of having been involved in ... (S. Heaney, Nobel L. 1995)
The diamond absolutes. I am neither internee nor informer - An inner emigre, a grown long-haired / And thoughtful a wood-kerne / Escaped from the masacre, Taking protective coloring / From bole and bark, feeling Every wind that blows ... (S. Heaney, from North)
All in vain, however, for the man stepped out in line - but instead of finding a gun at his temple, he was thrown backward and away as the gunman opened fire on those remaining in the line, for these were not Protestant terrorists, but members, presumably ... (S. Heaney)
Interpretation of dali48
Seamus Heaney (/ˈʃeɪməs ˈhiːni/; born 1939) is an Irish poet, playwright, translator, lecturer and recipient of the 1995 Nobel Prize in Literature. Born at Mossbawn farmhouse between Castledawson and Toomebridge, he now resides in Dublin - As well as the Nobel Prize in Literature, Heaney has received the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize (1968), the E. M. Forster Award (1975), the PEN Translation Prize (1985), the Golden Wreath of Poetry (2001), T. S. Eliot Prize (2006) and two Whitbread Prizes (1996 and 1999) - Robert Lowell called him "the most important Irish poet since Yeats" and many others, including the academic John Sutherland, have echoed the sentiment that he is "the greatest poet of our age" - Yet he has also shown signs of deeply resenting this role, defending the right of poets to be private and apolitical, and questioning the extent to which poetry, however 'committed', can influence the course of history - Heaney's 2004 play The Burial at Thebes makes parallels between Creon with the foreign policies of the Bush administration - He turned down the offer of laureateship partly for political reasons, commenting "I’ve nothing against the Queen personally: I had lunch at the Palace once upon a time" - His most commonly cited political statement came in 1982 when he objected to being included in an anthology of British poetry - despite being of Northern Irish birth - In December 2011, he donated his personal literary notes to the National Library of Ireland - He spoke at the West Belfast Festival 2010 in celebration of his mentor, the poet and novelist Michael MacLaverty, who had helped Heaney to first publish his poetry - Heaney suffered a stroke from which he recovered in August 2006, but cancelled all public engagements for several months - He read the works of Henning Mankell, Donna Leon and Robert Harris while in hospital, and was visited at the time by Bill Clinton - Heaney's District and Circle won the 2006 T. S. Eliot Prize. He became artist of honor in Østermarie, Denmark in 2008 and the Seamus Heaney Stræde (street) was named after him - He composed the poem "Beacons of Bealtaine" for the 2004 EU Enlargement. The poem was read by Heaney at a ceremony for the twenty-five leaders of the enlarged European Union arranged by the Irish EU presidency - In 2003, when asked if there was any figure in popular culture who aroused interest in poetry and lyrics, Heaney praised rap artist Eminem, saying "He has created a sense of what is possible. He has sent a voltage around a generation. He has done this not just through his subversive attitude but also his verbal energy" - Heaney's 1996 collection The Spirit Level won the Whitbread Book of the Year Award and repeated the success with the release of Beowulf: A New Translation - Asked how it felt having his name to the Irish Nobel pantheon featuring William Butler Yeats, George Bernard Shaw and Samuel Beckett, Heaney responded: "It's like being a little foothill at the bottom of a mountain range. You hope you just live up to it. It's extraordinary" - Heaney was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995 for what the Nobel committee described as "works of lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which exalt everyday miracles and the living past" - His father, Patrick, died soon after publication of the 1987 volume, The Haw Lantern - As he was born and educated in Northern Ireland, Heaney has felt the need to emphasize that he is Irish and not British - In 1984, his mother, Margaret, died ...
