Joanne Piavanini argues that the shaping of collective memory is one of Heaney's major contributions as a poet. Locating Heaney in a transnational literary sphere, this book argues that his late work isdefined by a type of cosmopolitanism openness: the work moves beyond national identity to explore multiple allegiances and identifications. Moreover, Piavanini demonstrates that memory is a helpful lens to look at Heaney's late work, in particular, because of the interplay of past, present and future in these works: in the construction of a collective memory of the Troubles; in the use of the elegy to commemorate the passing of important contemporary poets; in his writing on events with transnational significance, such as 9\/11; in the slippages between past and present in poems about his family; and through the literary afterlives of texts--specifically, his appropriation of canonical classical texts. Drawing on approaches and concepts from memory studies, Piavanini considers Heaney's late work to develop an analysis of poetry as a vehicle of memory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCultural Memory in Seamus Heaney's Late Work\u003c\/i\u003e considers the ways that memory functions in Heaney's poetry.
