Readings and commentary on modern Irish poems by Seamus Heaney, John Montague, Derek Mahon, Patrick Kavanaugh, and W. B. Yeats.|THE POETS / Robert Tracy, Brenden O’Hehir, and Joan Trodden Keeffe| produced by Padraigin McGuillicuddy. SERIES: Irish Contributions to English Literature| no. 6. The Irish have a strong poetic tradition stretching back several thousand years. With illustrations from modern (mostly northern) poets, Irish themes are powerfully illustrated, none more so than the brooding sense of loss of native Irish language, and the linking of the goddess to the land and with sovereignty. Selected poems of Seamus Heaney, John Montague, Derek Mahon, and Patrick Kavenaugh read by Leo Doeney and Padraigin McGuillicuddy, interspersed with commentary and explanation by Robert Tracy, Brenden O’Hehir, and Joan Trodden Keeffe.
