As Cork city pulsated with poetry and music in the early 1970s, a revolution in Irish-language poetry was about to be launched on the banks of the Lee. Inspired by the innovative energy of composer and musician Seán Ó Riada, and under the watchful and, sometimes, critical eye of resident poet Seán Ó Ríordáin a group of four pioneering poets established a journal that would alter the course of Irish-language poetry and literature.
This timely publication seeks to explain why Cork city and UCC provided fertile terrain and how, in Máire Mhac an tSaoi’s words, “a second blossoming” occurred in modern Irish-language poetry at this vibrant time. Including interviews and reflective essays, as well as insightful academic arguments, this book reassesses Innti’s contribution to twentieth-century Irish literature.
