The most intensively star-forming galaxies are extremely luminous at far-infrared ( FIR) wavelengths, highly obscured at optical and ultraviolet wavelengths, and lie at z >= 1-3. We present a programme of FIR spectroscopic observations with the SPIRE FTS, as well as photometric observations with...
