"In Gratitude for All the Gifts explores the literary and cultural links between the
bestselling, Nobel Prize-winning Northern Irish poet Seamus Heaney and the preeminent
Eastern European poets of the twentieth century, including fellow Nobel laureate Czeslaw
Milosz and Zbigniew Herbert. Magdalena Kay opens new ground in comparative literary
studies with her close analysis of Heaney's poetic work from the perspective of the
English-speaking West's attraction, and especially Heane''s own attraction, to Eastern
European poetry ; While placing Milosz and Herbert in their cultural contexts and
keeping an eye on the poems in their original Polish, this innovative and energetic
study focuses on how Heaney encountered their work in translation. In Gratitude for
All the Gifts thus allows us to see what happens when poetic forms, histories, and
themes travel between countries and encourages us to understand cultural crossing
not just thematically, but also in terms of form, voice, and aesthetic intent."--Pub.
