On 13 August 1888 Walt Whitman (1819-92) was working on "Leaves of Grass" - his life's poetry. 

Paul O'Mahony introduces one of Whitman's greatest poems "When Lilacs Last In The Doorway Bloom'd" - and reads most of the poem) from the 1892 edition).

This is an elegy for Abraham Lincoln - written shortly after Lincoln was assassination in 1865. 

It is one of the most influential poems ever written by an American poet. 



Walt Whitman's Greatest Poem - perhaps

From Oregon to South Carolina - the eclipse of the sun on Monday 21 August 2017 gives scientists an opportunity to learn more about our sun.

Back in 4000 BC a Chinese Emperor may have executed two astronomers because they failed to predict a total eclipse.

William Wordsworth saw an eclipse and wrote a poem about it.

Paul O'Mahony reads that poem & considers the solar eclipse to be a valuable metaphor for the human condition. 

Total Eclipse of the Sun

Paul O'Mahony reports on "Culture Night" - a one-day festival happening all over Ireland on 22 September 2017.



Culture Night in Ireland is coming soon

Paul O'Mahony chats with Benjamin O'Mahony about culture - including the concept of a "cultured person". 

Where can you find a cultured person?

Paul O'Mahony (non-runner) talks to Roger Overall (runner) about the culture of running - particularly ultra-running.  The "moral code of running" :  pushing & shoving in middle distance running - gamesmanship. Contrast that with the incredibly supportive culture of ultra-running. Roger tells a story about what happened in one race, suggesting a "culture of help". Conversation includes cricket, golf & football.  "Cheating to gain advantage". Imagine Millwall v West Ham.  Diving in football.  Also Robbie Fowler's moral code.  Arsenal replayed the game. Roger's contribution to the culture of running.

The Culture of Running

Paul O'Mahony gets together with two of the Stars  of "Irma".  After closing night, in a pub, they chat about the opera (nopera - anti-opera) - and whether it's culture? Tom Phillips composed the opera over 50 years (1969 - 2017).  Radically different "single page visual & textual score".
