From “in between” to “out between” : Seamus Heaney’s The Haw Lantern
초록
영어
Seamus Heaney’s seventh collection, The Haw Lantern can be called the book of “in between” in many ways. The landscape of the poems in The Haw Lantern builds a bridge between Field Work and Station Island, which are mainly about encounters with dead people, and The Spirit Level, which sees the poet’s return to life in Northern Ireland. From a different angle, the poems discuss the space between the pursuit of identity about a place in North, and an expanded place toward universality in Seeing Things. The motif of “in between” and the various metaphors for space in The Haw Lantern clearly reflect the location of the poems. This paper tries to develop the motif of “in between” into “out between” through Victor Turner’s key concepts of liminality and liminoid. Especially, following the death of his mother, Heaney identified a present empty space with a presence in the past. In addition, he became aware of a space, or a gap, between presence and absence as “a bright nowhere.” Finally, his awareness makes it possible to assume the multiple identities of Northern Ireland, and visions of the future.
