The Lake Isle

Lake Island has points in everyone's life, and we think about it when we think of holidays where we leave us. For some people it is only a sudden appearance and it will soon disappear with that unreal theme. Most people are thinking about escaping, but they do not know what they want. In his poem "The Lake Isle", Ezra Pound wrote on paper the simple things he had been waiting for and showed the environment he wanted to escape.

The reader includes Seamus Heaney, Sinead O'Connor and Theo Dorgan, but this is the voice of Yeats himself, and it is a revelation to recite "Inn of Innisfree" at the singing speed. Earlier this week, visitor Patrick McAfee said Yeats "has Sligo's distinctive Irish country accents." "That is wonderful, the way he said is very strange, my friend said it was in the four movies, Yeats (1865-1939) is the general public, a poet, a lover, and a mystery It is tough, towering, quirky and self-stated Rare appearance In less than 50 years since the famine caused the disaster in the island, he is an obvious Irish cultural identity due to sustained tension with the UK He gathered folklore, helped launch Abby Theater and advertised John Millington Synge, Sean O'Casey, etc. After winning the Nobel Prize in literature in 1923, he said " This part welcomes free countries. "

Yeats incorporated this British - Irishman against his poetic identity. Even in his earliest poems like his most famous piece, "Innesfree Lake", he dreams of Rocky Mountain Island in Lough Gill in the state of Sligo and stands on the sidewalk of London. In his last verse, he not only ordered the burial of Drumcliff 's mountain, "Under Ben Bulben" of Sligo, but also himself. I imagine that his eternity is only in his mother's hometown, but the reputation in England is easier than in Ireland.

In order to combat the British ambition, the French army began to construct a series of fortresses from Lake Erie to Allegheny Valley. The first was Presque Isle Fort of Erie in early 1753, Lebow Fort of French Creek in December 1753, British Virginia colony in April 1954 exchanged land with local Indian tribes Ohio River company to establish. Speculation and trade, along the Allegheny River in April 1944. Approximately 500,000 acres of land are approved on the south side of the Ohio River between the Monongahela and the Kenhawa River. In 1752 the British expedition rushed Ohio to the west side of the Allegheny Mountains. Early in 1753, a plan for the fortress along the Monongahela River and settlement was set up.
