Seamus Heaney

REACHING OUT TO THE WORLD Recognising Seamus Heaney as a global literary force, we work internationally through collaborations with Villanova University in Pennsylvania, and through the annual appointment of two Fulbright US Scholars. The Seamus Heaney Poetry Summer School welcomes students from across the world each year, and a new Poetry in Translation project in partnership with Haus für Poesie in Berlin began in 2022. We also work closely with the Heaney family as part of the wider Heaney community that includes the Estate of Seamus Heaney, the Seamus Heaney HomePlace in Bellaghy, and the National Library of Ireland.
