초록
The Yeats Society of Sligo, and a Yeats Country Arts Festival in May 1958 had been established by what Jim McGarry, one of the seven original plotters, called Sligo’s “small cultural underground.” It had included a lecture on Yeats from Roger McHugh of UCD. An occasional lecture series from Padraic Colum, Ethel Mannin, briefly a mistress of Yeats’s, who donated his letters to the Sligo Co. Library, and Thomas Rice Henn, author of The Lonely Tower, in 1959, followed. The pharmacist, Tony Toher, on the corner of O’Connell and Wine Streets, had on display a set of 38 photographs of Sligo sights prepared and a “Yeats County” map made up to show those pilgrims who came in search of Yeats the geography of the county according to the places in the poems. Starting with this image of Sligo as “underground culture,” the author reflects his own experience when he first attended the Yeats Summer School and traces the history of the Summer School, providing rich information on distinguished Yeats scholars, such as T. R. Henn, Denis Donoghue, Frank Kermode, and famous Irish poets including Seamus Heaney, Geoffrey Hill, Brendan Kennelly, Thomas Kinsella, and Michael Longley.
Abstract
The Yeats Society of Sligo, and a Yeats Country Arts Festival in May 1958 had been established by what Jim McGarry, one of the seven original plotters, called Sligo’s “small cultural underground.” It had included a lecture on Yeats from Roger McHugh of UCD. An occasional lecture series from Padraic Colum, Ethel Mannin, briefly a mistress of Yeats’s, who donated his letters to the Sligo Co. Library, and Thomas Rice Henn, author of The Lonely Tower, in 1959, followed. The pharmacist, Tony Toher, on the corner of O’Connell and Wine Streets, had on display a set of 38 photographs of Sligo sights prepared and a “Yeats County” map made up to show those pilgrims who came in search of Yeats the geography of the county according to the places in the poems. Starting with this image of Sligo as “underground culture,” the author reflects his own experience when he first attended the Yeats Summer School and traces the history of the Summer School, providing rich information on distinguished Yeats scholars, such as T. R. Henn, Denis Donoghue, Frank Kermode, and famous Irish poets including Seamus Heaney, Geoffrey Hill, Brendan Kennelly, Thomas Kinsella, and Michael Longley.
