Heaney's face is creased and poised, on the point of breaking out into a kind smile at any time.

[@swymaj02]

Yeah..... It really is.

[@LlamameLucas]

It's beautiful

[@roofdweller]

Happy Birthday, Mr. Heaney. You are mint, new. Marvelous to sit close, hear your voice, see/feel the way you make contact from within to without, without to within. Generations have and will be with you and feel you through.

Excellent interview, thoughtful questions. Worth revisiting from time to time.

"Poetry comes out of some kind of ... previousness....a kind of psychic fossil fuel that comes up."

[@swymaj02]

That in itself could be a poem. And he's right, most poetry do come out of memories. They're kind of autobiographical in some ways.

[@starshine6472]

What a great, thoughtful interview. Rose actually has meaningful, interesting questions and doesn't cut Heaney off with his own pre-scripted, sensationalistic interrogatory agenda like so many other talk show hosts do. You can tell that Rose has a true sensitivity and appreciation of Heaney and what he is saying and responds based on what Heaney says, not just what he has already decided that he wants to ask. It seems like most of this should be par for the course in a talk show interview, but sadly, it's quite rare.

[@jonharrison9222]

He interrupts virtually everyone he interviews. Yanks are too self-obsessed to do the job properly.

[@dr.sreekanthkopuri7971]

This vedio makes me nostalgic and long to see Bog and Mossbawn and ever landscape in his poems.

[@danieloconnell6262]

Famous Seamus disregarded no one,he was always inclusive,bless him

[@AndalusianIrish]

He and Jimmy Simmons did have a fall out mind you but other than that I agree.

[@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1]

A regular working class Irish man, who majority of irish people would be able to relate to.

Despite the ones that slandered him for not writing IRA propaganda or not being a believing Catholic?

yeh i know he gave involuntary massages and exposed his ding dong but can we bring back charlie rose please?

[@AndalusianIrish]

@bluebellbeatnik4945 I wasn't aware of that at the time and I am not saying that he should be brought back but that doesn't mean that his interviews weren't good. There's this adult concept called nuance that you don't seem to have grasped yet.

Strange that Séamus did not believe in the After Life, i.e. the survival of the soul and God. This is revealed in an interview he had with Marian Finnucane( Irish Radio) many years ago.This fact is recorded by journalist John Waters.

The bland-scary-shirt-and-tie-on-an-American host really, and rightly so, rolled out his special serious voice in introducing the Irish Nobel laureate, Seamus Hay-Knee. 0:07. The research on this show is above and beyant sure

[@pamtnman1515]

Heaney is fascinating. His introduction to his version of Beowulf is heavy duty just by itself. As for fake news purveyor and serial sex harasser Charlie Rose, good riddance, big fake.

[@jonharrison9222]

Tell us your fascinating take on Trump.

[@pamtnman1515]

@@jonharrison9222 PBS Charlie Rose was a serial sex harasser of women, and fake news purveyor PBS protected him for decades. How you made the jump to President Trump is one of those fascinating moments in Trump Derangement Syndrome that I am sure some enterprising scientist will study. But now that you mention him, I think the connection here between lawless PBS and serial sex harasser Charlie Rose and Seamus Heaney and Beowulf is that President Trump is the modern incarnation of Beowulf. He is here to heroically slay the evil bureaucratic dragon that has gone rogue and started eating the people it was supposed to protect. So yeah, Trump. He's the hero of this story.

Does anyone else notice that Charlie Rose seemingly deliberately mispronounces words, specifically the names of his guests? Seamus 'Haney' he says. Like, that's not his accent or anything - just a willful wrongness. It's weird.
