About this event

We welcome you to Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again as we follow Heaney’s journey as he transformed the myths he inherited and learned about into something wholly his own.

This June we will draw from the myths of ancient Greece and Rome, and Ireland’s own heroic cycles. Heaney used a rich tapestry of story and memory as a way to understand who we are and where we come from. Heaney breathed new life into these tales weaving the intimate world of homeplace with the vast landscapes of legend. The tour invites you to follow Heaney’s journey from his early encounters with local folklore to his later thoughts on classical figures.
