Paul Muldoon is the author of ten collections of poetry, and a winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. In this lecture, he presents a characteristically playful and idiosyncratic consideration of poems by six Irish poets, looking at “The Guttural Muse” and “Limbo,” by Seamus Heaney, “Sunday Morning” by Louis MacNeice, W.R. Rodgers’s “The Net,” John Montague’s “The Trout”, Medbh McGuckian’s “The Flower Master” and Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill’s “The Shannon Estuary Welcomes the Fish”.
