Innti
Innti
Irish language poetry movement
Innti was a literary movement of poets writing Modern literature in Irish, associated with a literary journal of the same name founded in 1970 by Michael Davitt, Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, Gabriel Rosenstock, Liam Ó Muirthile, later joined by Louis de Paor.[1] These writers were students of University College Cork, drawing inspiration from Seán Ó Ríordáin and Seán Ó Riada,[2][3] as well as American influences such as the Beat movement and the counterculture of the 1960s. Their reception was mixed, with literary traditionalists resenting their urbanism, social liberalism and "foreign" Anglo-American influences.[4]
