    Heaney Letter Dear Mr. Heaney‚ I have recently studied some of your poetry for my leaving certificate english course and I feel greatly changed by what I read.

There’s an image of “the trapped sky” as the reflection of the sky at the other end of the tunnel into the earth – to see the sky‚ he looks down‚ not up. When things are down‚ they can be pinned

    other hand‚ does however have experience and yet again‚ he accepts his challenge as he always does. “Beowulf got ready; donned his war-gear‚ indifferent to death‚ his mighty‚ hand-forged‚ fine-webbed mail would soon meet with the menace under water” (Heaney 1442).

    Yeats’ poetry‚ it is his gift of writing that has an impact on me. His use of powerful contrasts and breath-taking imagery easily make Yeats one of the greatest poets of the twentieth century.

One the themes of Yeats’ poetry which interested me quite a lot was the theme of escapism. This theme is apparent in two of the
