The Pastoral is an expression of a soceity divided between city and country. It is not appropriate to the communitarian values of Ireland. A survey of writers from Spenser to Heaney shows that they have rejected or subverted Pastoral. Only in Heaney's Field Work does Irish poetry begin to come to terms with the utopianism implicit in Pastoral
