Whether it was the funeral of Beowulf or Ireland trees, Boylston Professor of Literature Seamus Heaney spoke gilded words in a poetry reading last night to raise money to support the Armenian Writers Union Publication Fund.
Heaney also addressed the audience with warmth and candor. After reading a poem about the funeral of Beowulf, Heaney said that he wrote about this Anglo-Saxon hero to win points for Irish poets.
A funeral mass was held Nov. 4 in Katonah, N.Y. Hammond was buried in Bedford Hills, N.Y.
