Seamus Heaney interview on his Life and Career + Poetry Reading (1991)
Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney has been judged by Robert Lowell to be the most important Irish poet since Yeats. Melvyn Bragg joins Heaney to look back over Heaney’s career at the time his best-selling collection Seeing Things—a return to the rural childhood territory of his very first book—was published, offering a rare opportunity to hear the poet read and discuss his work. Through poems including "Death of a Naturalist," "The Toome Road," "Wheels Within Wheels," "The Strand at Lough Beg" and "Seeing Things," he describes his efforts to balance losses with life’s marvels, the lyrical with the elegiac, and social responsibility with creative freedom in a society divided by religion and politics.

Seamus Heaney Reads His Poem, 'Digging'

L'Irlande vient de perdre l'un de ses plus grands poètes : Seamus Heaney, Nobel de littérature, s'est éteint vendredi à l'âge de 74 ans dans un hôpital de Dublin. Il laisse derrière lui une œuvre poétique considérable en douze volumes, influencée par le folklore celte, mêlant l'évocation de la nature et la violence politique en Irlande du nord.
