Past Poetic: Archaeology in the Poetry of W.B.Yeats and Seamus Heaney Book

This book considers the way two Anglo-Irish poets, W.B. Yeats and Seamus Heaney, have used archaeology in their work, and how it surfaced in their lives. As well as providing new insights on Yeats and Heaney, their poetry and its analysis provides a filter for an original reading of the history of archaeology as it emerged from the mid-nineteenth century. Christine Finn draws on an array of data, tracing the path of the poets through museums, their childhood landscapes, and archaeological sites in Ireland, Italy and Scandinavia.Past Poetic reveals the ways in which these two great poets received the past, as images in books and photographs, and as tangible objects.Read More
