Abstract

Hermeneutics as a research practice involves reappraisal and
reinterpretation in relation to its cultural contexts. This article addresses
these issues upon launching a study of Heaney's early poetry specially
his first major volume of poetry, Death of a Naturalist (1966). The
present paper focuses on the themes of fear, decay and death in the
poetry of Seamus Heaney exposed through a hermeneutical approach
practiced through Derrida's deconstruction as method.
