Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Literary giants Yeats and Heaney are surrounded by a host of other poets - Patrick Kavanagh, Louis MacNeice, Derek Mahon, Eilean Ni Chuilleanain, Eavan Boland, Ciaran Carson and Paul Muldoon, to name but a few - in this anthology of the best of Irish poetryWith its roots in the devotional verse of the early Christian church and the long lyric poems of the Irish bards, Irish poetry has a rich and robust tradition both of engagement and self-reflection. It has grappled long with politics and has provided the most eloquent response to Ireland's turbulent history, mediating and mitigating histories of loyalty and loss; it has soaked itself in the Irish landscape and Celtic myth; it has encompassed religion, so much a part of Ireland's cultural heritage. At the same time Irish poets have given their own original slant to everyday experience and affairs of the heart.Thematically organized and spanning many centuries, this selection also features a section of Gaelic poetry in translation, notably excerpts from the 18th-century epic masterpiece, Brian Merriman's The Midnight Court. With its roots in the devotional verse of the early Christian church and the long lyric poems of the Irish bards, Irish poetry has a rich and robust tradition both of engagement and self-reflection. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. 'The best thing on social media is a Twitter account called Second Mentions.' The Times To avoid repetition, journalists often try to be creative when referencing something for the second time in a news article for example, Boris Johnson at the first mention could become 'the blond buffoon' at the second mention, while Donald Trump could become 'the bloviating billionaire' (with extra points for alliteration!) Once you see one, you start seeing them everywhere and it becomes addictive. This grammatical tool, christened 'elegant variation', is used by journalists trying to avoid making their articles boring through repetition, but its use is not an exact science and the results can sometimes be hilarious. Every day, the Second Mentions team is sent examples of these, spotted by journalists who are keen to point out shining examples used by their fellow writers (or sometimes claiming responsibility for their own efforts!) and non-journalists who enjoy the simple pleasure of happening upon these 'second mentions' while reading news articles. And so, from distended dachshunds to marine marauders, and from 5ft 1in. nonagenarians to pear-shaped money-guzzlers, The Little Book of Second Mentions is the perfect gift for everyone with an inventive passion for the English language from those with a general interest in current affairs to those working in the media.
