The Seamus Heaney Memorial Lecture series, inaugurated in 2014, commemorates the first anniversary of the esteemed poet's passing on August 30, 2013. This year, the lecture will delve into the profound moments of connection found in Heaney's poetry. From the closeness of strangers to the delicate sensitivity of touch, the lecture will explore how words can come to life in a tangible way. Additionally, it will argue that the body is a primary instrument of reading and investigate the sensory demands that lyric poetry places upon us. The upcoming lecture will be delivered by Seán Hewitt, a renowned author and Assistant Professor at Trinity College Dublin's Oscar Wilde Centre. Hewitt has received critical acclaim for his poetry collections, including the Laurel Prize-winning "Tongues of Fire" and "Rapture's Road." His memoir, "All Down Darkness Wide," earned him the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature. Hewitt's collaboration with artist Luke Edward Hall, "300,000 Kisses: Tales of Queer Love from the Ancient World," was published in 2023, and his debut novel, "Open, Heaven," is set to be released in 2025. This prestigious lecture series is organized by the Keough-Naughton Institute at the University of Notre Dame in collaboration with Queen's University Belfast, where the event will take place. The Seamus Heaney Memorial Lecture series serves as a tribute to Heaney's impactful contributions to Irish and global literature.

Belfast City Hall

放飞自我去游玩

We were led by a big-bellied man, who took the middle staircase to the second floor. He asked us to introduce ourselves at the circular handrail in the middle. We were from all over the country, and most of us were foreigners. Then he led us to the parliament hall, which is where the parliamentarians usually hold meetings. There was a microphone at each seat. He then began to talk about the origin and function of this building, and spoke with great vigor. Everyone could sit anywhere, even the speaker&#39;s seat. After the introduction, he led us to visit other halls. The huge banquet hall was covered with thick and beautiful red carpet. I can&#39;t remember which hall was covered with blue carpet.

The Peace Bridge is a beautiful landscape in Belfast. It represents a very sad history and also represents the hope of the people of Northern Ireland. The walls are covered with various graffiti works, most of which are paintings expressing peace in Northern Ireland. Some of the graffiti works are very moving and worth appreciating.

The streets of Herceg Novi are a bit deserted, unlike the old town of Kotor, where large cruise ships dock every day, bringing a large number of elderly European groups. But because there are fewer people, you can stroll around slowly and discover more beauty.
