There is little between landscape and inscape’ mar a deir Paddy Bushe sa dán ‘Toponomist’. Bíonn filíocht Paddy Bushe ag cuardach i gcónaí, an ceangal atá idir an fhilíocht agus an logainm á lorg aige, an tírdhreach agus an mhiotaseolaíocht. Sa leabhar Agallamh sa Cheo: Cnoc Bhréannain, dreapann Ceaití Ní Bheildiúin learga Chnoc Bhréanainn i gCiarraí; tá cairde roimpi is strainséirí, feirmeoirí is oilithrigh, comharsana is dreapadóirí eile. I sraith dánta atá ceangailte le chéile, iniúchann sí béaloideas, teanga agus stair agus mar a léirítear ar mhapaí iad.

IMRAM is proud to launch two major new poetry projects. The film Mapaí agus Finscéalta probes the links between poetry, placename, landscape and mythology. Paddy Bushe often writes of the haunting landscapes of islands. In her poems Ceaití Ní Bheildiúin takes us to the slopes of Mount Brandon in Kerry where she explores how folklore, language and history are shaped by landscape and their representation in maps. Their poems are read to a soundtrack composed by Neil Ó Lochlainn, and images by artist Margaret Lonergan. Tonight also marks the publication of Lig don nGiorria Suí/Let the Hare Sit (Dedalus Press), a selection of the very best of Ceaití Ní Bheildiúin’s poems in a dual-language format, with her potent Irish originals deftly rendered into English by Paddy Bushe.
