초록
Yeats and Heaney search for “uisneach,” a kind of utopia in their poems. However, the differences in their background create different utopias. Compared with Heaney, Yeats may be more romantic: he can be called a courtly poet or a bard or a celtic shaman or a knight who chases the holy grail. As for Heaney, he searches more for “here” and “now,” based upon a more realistic view of life. Heaney can be seen as an archeologist who digs the miserable Irish history or a wanderer seeking some reconciliation and peace or a scientist projecting objectivity in depicting things or a transcendentalist searching for the spiritual world. To conclude, applying the original meaning of “utopia,” Yeats’s utopia can be called “no place” whereas Heaney’s one can be called “good place.”
Abstract

To conclude, applying the original meaning of “utopia,” Yeats’s utopia can be called “no place” whereas Heaney’s one can be called “good place.”
