- “The Worker Who Reads: Hermeneutics of Class in the Poetry of Seamus Heaney and His British and European Contemporaries”
This lecture looks at the links between politics, family background, and social class in the poetry of Seamus Heaney and his British contemporaries, including a look at contemporary poetry in various European languages. This was a free hybrid event by Dr. Attila Dosa, presented in partnership with the University of St. Thomas. Dr. Dosa is an Erasmus Scholar working in the Center for Irish Studies at the University of St. Thomas.
Seamus Heaney is the foremost Irish poet since W. B. Yeats. Attila Dosa will attempt to address the aspects of class, education, and family loyalty in Heaney’s work in the context of his contemporaries in the British Isles and consider the influence of European poetry with particular reference to poets from Poland.
Attila Dosa is an Associate Professor of English at the University of Miskolc, Northern Hungary. He was a Chevening Scholar at the University of Oxford and received his Ph.D. from the University of St Andrews, Scotland.
This lecture took place on November 4, 2022 at the Celtic Junction Arts Center.
