Quotations
‘The cleavage of races and ideals brought about by the Plantation of Ulster is still evident in the complexities of our social structure, and it is reflected, of course, in our literature. the separation of Northern Ireland [...] from the rest of the country has had [...] one interesting result in stimulating a regional movement, a certain attitude of self-sufficiency
among artists and writers, and in directing their attention to what lies to hand.’ (‘Poetry in Ulster’, in Sam Hanna Bell, et al., eds, The Arts in Ulster, London: Harrap 1951, p.132; also cited in part in Bell’s introduction [‘A Banderol’], p.19.)
