Feminine quality has impressed Seamus Heaney, in terms of maternity and generous capacity. Therefore, mothers and wives in many of his poems have been described steadily and positively. Basically, Heaney has had a stable and very communicative relationship with his mother, which led to his resourceful empathic ability of women`s lives. Heaney has empathized women`s daily lives in which they suffered from men`s unilateral attitude. Heaney`s female characters have been mostly described as being conversant with generous capacity and maternity. Heaney has thought highly of this feminine quality and some critics has discussed it in Heaney`s poetry, calling it as a ‘feminine principle.’ Consequently, this thesis aims to discuss how this ‘feminine principle’ of Heaney`s poetry could be embodied and used to search for the women`s sufferings and capacity. This study also illuminates Heaney`s delicate description of male-female issues. Besides, it searches for what he proposes to look squarely at women`s sufferings, get over the limitation, and reach the possibility of true communion between men and women. When it comes to dealing with male-female issues, it ultimately faces communication gap and this is sort of verbal limitation. In the first place, This study focuses the issue of women`s troubles and distress focused on a few of female poems in Door into the Dark. Secondly, “clearances” in The Haw Lantern is mentioned based on the fact that this poem was written after experiencing the death of parents. It is expected to reflect his deeper consideration into communication issues and much more concentrate on female capacity. This is because the feminine capacity based on maternity is one of the major resource and the capital motivation of his poetry. Despite his considerate thoughts on male-female communication and women`s limitation, Heaney is ultimately not likely to have an insight into women as an independent character. However, there has been his endeavors to cast light upon feminine capacity. It is worth finding his style to voice women and express his stance toward them in his female poems. In conclusion, the most positive aspect of feminine principle, according to Heaney, is maternity and women`s unsparing capability to accept all sorts of absurdity and deal with sufferings. He trusted it as a potential to make this male-oriented world go round properly and balance it. Finally, Heaney`s female poems has thrown new light on women`s ability which has been neglected and found their voices.
