Items related to Seamus Heaney and Medieval Poetry
Seamus Heaney's engagement with medieval literature constitutes a significant body of work by a major poet that extends across four decades, including a landmark translation of "Beowulf". This book looks at this engagement, and examines both Heaney's direct translations and his adaptation of medieval material in his original poems.

Review:
All medievalists will, no doubt, appreciate the main theses of this fine, well-researched, and well-crafted (both inside and out) book. EOLAS
Conor McCarthy's brilliantly erudite and refreshingly unpretentious book, Seamus Heaney and Medieval Poetry, teaches us to read Heaney's Beowulf not as distinct from the rest of his work, but thoroughly integrated within it. Heaney, McCarthy shows, has practised a lifelong habit of translating from, adapting, alluding to and transfusing medieval poetry in his own work. TIMES HIGHER EDUCATION SUPPLEMENT
