John Montague's writings and lectures on poetry.

The Bag Apron: The Poet and His Community is part of UCD Press's The Poet's Chair series, publishing the public lectures of the Ireland Professors of Poetry. The Ireland Chair of Poetry was established in 1998 following the award of the Nobel Prize of Literature to Seamus Heaney and is supported by Queen's University Belfast, Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin, the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and the Arts Counci 1/An Chomhairle Ealafon. Other poets in the series include Nuala N1 Dhomhnaill, Paul Durcan, Michael Longley, Harry Clifton and Paula Meehan.

In his volume of The Poet's Chair, John Montague speaks of finding his own voice and of "wandering around the world to discover the self you were born with." He also shares his thoughts on the long poem format and the relationship between words and music, investigates the challenges of translation in poetry, and speaks about his relationship with Samuel Beckett, whom he knew in Paris.

Recenzii

"Beautifully printed and bound, this substantial series of published lectures pays testament to the rich diversity of contemporary Irish poetry and its criticism. It also offers the opportunity to consider how several important Irish poets have variously gone about the challenge of professing poetry in the public sphere."
