국문 초록

Motivated with thinking of a new literary theory so called diaspora, the purpose of this paper is to explore Heaney’s postcolonial writing as he misreads the myth in decolonized Ireland. The relationship between the decolonial discourse and diasporic theory is riding on a current issue in writings. I assume that a growing interest among readers reflects this prevailing term for his work. His writing method and idea owe more to diasporic attitude in the respect that he subverts the established Irish myth. Heaney have been witnessed historical moments of Irish reality so he broke the fabricating historical myth. Heaney explored the traditional literature in Ireland, characterized by the effects of the experience of colonization and a sense of intellectual and spiritual deprivation. By way of this historical experience of authentic decolonization of his mother land, Heaney's writing became, more and more, politicized against the crisis which the repressive force of imperialism caused to occur. Under this traumatic disasters of Ireland, Heaney’s poetic quest makes him the practical struggle against the colonial power in a poetic way. And he creates a new decolonial place. It could be said that the poet attitude like that is diasporic writing as a new writing one.
