	Literary Encyclopedia: Muldoon, Paul
		Muldoon dedicated his first collection, New Weather, to his “Fathers and Mothers” and the complexity of his relationship with his parents is a recurrent theme in his work.
		Muldoon’s early collections were written against the violent backdrop of the Troubles in Northern Ireland and his characteristic obliquity of style – not least his affinity for hybrid forms and subjects – can be seen as strategic, a way of reacting to the tensions of history without becoming a hostage to them.
		Although it alienated a number of Muldoon’s most consistent advocates, this wild and shaggy dog story confirmed the poet’s boundless sense of his art and is one of the outstanding poems of the last half-century.

		There is some design to the poem, as witnessed by the relatively chronological progression of the thinkers associated with each verse, and the story itself (of the poets' efforts to establish their state) also proceeds through the verses.
		Muldoon is certainly clever, and much of the pleasure of the poem is in the cleverness of the connections Muldoon makes.
		Muldoon also gets to play with language, and many of the verses he comes up with for specific philosophers and thinkers are, indeed, inspired.

		The Northern Irish poet Paul Muldoon, who teaches at Princeton University, is without question one of the most inventive poets writing in English today.
		Muldoon's wickedly witty verbal invention and high-spirited lampooning of everything, including himself, is in top form in the 30-sonnet sequence that finishes ``Hay,'' a wild tour de force of verbal legerdemain and weird juxtaposition.
		Much of one's reaction to Muldoon's more verbally flashy poems depends on the importance one attaches to what Seamus Heaney has called the ``delight in the trickery and lechery that words are capable of.'' For me, such stuff, when unaccompanied by meaningful or moving content, is more entertaining than sustaining.

	Ploughshares, the literary journal
		I first heard of Paul Muldoon through the affectionate enthusing of Seamus Heaney, who donned his conspiratorial mien—as if agents of some imagined opposition might be lurking near—and confided that his somewhat younger compatriot was “the real thing.” I sought the work out, though I’ll confess I was some time coming to it.
		On top of everything else, Muldoon is, in his poems, a retriever of the golden fact, a breaker-open of the habit-encrusted outer shell of words, a maker of Cornell collages from the materials of perception and recollection.
		Muldoon speaks of giving himself over “to the force of language, for which one is a conduit or medium.” He does add, however, that “the ‘divining’ metaphor breaks down in the sense that the rod is at once unknowing.

		But in the second part, the narrator himself exposes the memory to be 'All made up' and he even mocks himself: 'c No one's taken in, I'm sure / By such a mild invention.' The narrator is put in the same position as Villa in his imagination; 'What should I say to this callow youth'.
		It is because Muldoon objectifies poetic invention itself that this poem looks a dual structure.
