초록
Yeats suffered the Irish Civil War in the 1920s while Heaney experienced the turbulent period of Northern Troubles in the period from 1968 to 1998. This paper aims to investigate how Yeats and Heaney reacted to these internal wars in their poems. To be specific about Yeats’s reaction to the political turmoil, we can find that his spiritual and artistic disposition made him escape into the spiritual utopia, including unrequited love and the ideal past. And his Anglo-Irish background made him praise the Easter Rising in a rather ambiguous way and he was even disillusioned with the political turbulence. Meanwhile we can hear his haughty voice as an Anglo-Irish in his later period. Meanwhile, Heaney reacted to the Northern Troubles in a resistant but moderate way. And he seemed to try to access the ethnic and religious discrimination in a more objective way by investigating the root of conflict as well as some reconciliative strategies for the sectarian problems. What Yeats has in common with Heaney is that, belonging to the minority facing the insoluble war, they could not but be inner emigrés.
Abstract
Yeats suffered the Irish Civil War in the 1920s while Heaney experienced the turbulent period of Northern Troubles in the period from 1968 to 1998. This paper aims to investigate how Yeats and Heaney reacted to these internal wars in their poems. To be specific about Yeats’s reaction to the political turmoil, we can find that his spiritual and artistic disposition made him escape into the spiritual utopia, including unrequited love and the ideal past. And his Anglo-Irish background made him praise the Easter Rising in a rather ambiguous way and he was even disillusioned with the political turbulence. Meanwhile we can hear his haughty voice as an Anglo-Irish in his later period. Meanwhile, Heaney reacted to the Northern Troubles in a resistant but moderate way. And he seemed to try to access the ethnic and religious discrimination in a more objective way by investigating the root of conflict as well as some reconciliative strategies for the sectarian problems. What Yeats has in common with Heaney is that, belonging to the minority facing the insoluble war, they could not but be inner emigrés.
