- **Event Description**: "Strange, it is a huge nothing that we fear"About this EventJoin us at Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again Saturday 24th May at 2pm for a fascinating talk from Dr Rosie Lavan of Trinity College Dublin on Seamus Heaney’s first and most beloved collection, Death of a Naturalist, in celebration of the 60th anniversary of its publication.Death of a Naturalist gained fame for Heaney as he movingly describes his journey from innocence to experience and from his rural upbringings in Co. Derry to the urban world of Belfast. Dr Lavan will discuss the book’s journey towards publication, looking at how some of Heaney’s most cherished poems – including ‘Digging’, ‘Twice Shy’ and ‘Death of a Naturalist’ – made their first appearances in British magazines including the New Statesman and Vogue, where they can be found in some intriguing contexts. To do so, she will draw on some of the most special items in our collection, such as the letter from Faber & Faber telling Heaney that Death of a Naturalist had been accepted for publication.
