- Wintering_Out abstract "Wintering Out (1972) is a poetry collection by Seamus Heaney, who received the 1995 Nobel Prize in Literature.The volume contains poems written between 1969 and 1971. Heaney wrote much of the collection while he was on sabbatical at the University of California, Berkley in 1971. Heaney has said that his time California had a liberating effect on the form of his poetry: "In the poems of Wintering Out, in the little quatrain shapes, there are signs of that loosening, the California spirit, a more relaxed movement to the verse." Heaney writes explicitly about California in the poem "Westering."While the poems in Wintering Out are more formally open, they also demonstrate Heaney's intensifying commitment to rooting his poetry in the Irish landscape. Throughout the collection, Heaney uses linguistic cues and place names to develop a sense of community and forge a connection with the Irish past. Poems like "Toome," "Broagh," and "Anahorish" are rich with allusions to Irish language and topography, while "Shore Woman" and "Maighdean Mara" draw on Irish folklore and proverbs.Wintering Out also contains one of Heaney's most important bog poems. In "Tolland Man," Heaney builds upon the image of the bog that he introduces in Door into the Dark's "Bogland." Heaney was deeply moved by P.V. Glob's study of the mummified Iron Age bodies found in Jutland's peat bogs. Bogs were a familiar feature of the Northern Irish landscape and Heaney found contemporary political relevance in the relics of the ritualistic killings.In Wintering Out, Heaney grapples with the place of politics in his poetry. In the late 1960s and early 1970s the sectarian violence of the Troubles was on the rise. Heaney felt pressure to act as a spokesperson for the Catholic minority of Northern Ireland. He moved from Belfast to County Wicklow in the Republic of Ireland shortly after the publication of Wintering Out. In North, Heaney's next and most controversial volume, he returns to the bog bodies with more explicitly political poems.Heaney has been recorded reading this collection on the Seamus Heaney Collected Poems.".
