This episode features Emeritus Fellow, Bernard O'Donoghue and undergraduate, Fox White. Together, they engage in a free-flowing discussion about C-Day Lewis: his connection to Ireland, his political and non-political poetry, and how to contextualise his legacy. They also read some of Day-Lewis's poems.
Recorded for the Exhibition of C Day-Lewis earlier in the year, this podcast version is a new, re-organised edit of the audio. It continues the commemoration of 50 years since Day-Lewis's passing.
