ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I express my gratitude to the Dean of the Faculty of Philology of the University of Lodz: Prof. Piotr Stalmaszczyk for his generosity with the sabbatical. The Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship (2015–2016) and a preceding visiting research, both hosted by Prof. Liana Sakelliou at the University of Athens, have been of tremendous help in collecting material. I am indebted to Prof. David Ricks and Prof. Peter Mackridge for their precious remarks, time and kindness, and especially to Rowena Fowler for her wonderful friendship and our constant dialogue about Heaney’s Greece. I would like to thank Richard Pine for his thoughtful assistance with the editing process and Stella Lubsen for her hospitality, readiness to share her memories, and for two great photos included in this book. I also gratefully acknowledge the support provided by Tomas René and Vicky
