Abstract
Over the last year I took part in two unusual events, in Dublin at the National Museum of Ireland, and at the Feile Na Bealtaine arts and poetry festival in Dingle, Ireland. At each, I gave a talk alongside poet and physicist Iggy McGovern, on the poetry of Ted Hughes and Seamus Heaney. We read some wonderful poems and discussed with audiences those great poets’ intuitive grasp of geology and science. An unexpected insight was an appreciation of the similarity of the scientist’s and poet’s inspiration and motivation.
