Longley, Michael (1939– ), Irish poet. Born in Belfast, Longley is one of the triumvirate of important Northern Irish poets (with
Heaney and
Mahon) who emerged in the 1960s. His natural role as love- poet and observer of nature has been challenged by the horrors of the post-1969 Troubles. ‘Wounds’ encompasses both the fate of the Ulster Division at the Somme in 1916 and recent sectarian atrocity. Longley is a fine monologuist, as well as an expert natural historian and elegist. His highly acclaimed work includes
Weather in Japan (2000). He has edited
20th Century Irish Poems (2002) and (with his wife, the critic Edna Longley) an edition of
MacNeice's Selected Poems (1988).
