Notes
1. Some readers might also consider the final piece, an Afterword on Catherine Walsh, as part of this.
2. It looks for example at Celan’s poem for Luxemburg (82) which is compared to the Yeats poems.
3. May he rest in peace. Maurice Scully passed away suddenly and recently, on March 5, 2023 in Spain. The Irish Times obituary: https://www.irishtimes.com/obituaries/2023/03/25/maurice-scully-obituary-gifted-dublin-born-poet-with-a-playful-experimental-style/
4. An acutely interesting reference here given Yeats’ dates: the painting The Enigma of Arrival and the Afternoon was completed by Giorgio de Chirico in 1912 and most certainly regards the Saidian theme, so important to Lloyd’s poems, of exile.
5. Said, “The Mind of Winter.”
