The most influential poet of his age, Yeats eluded the grasp of many who sought to explain him. In this classic critical examination of the poet, Richard Ellmann strips away the masks of his subject: occultist, senator of the Irish Free State, libidinous old man, and Nobel Prize winner.

Jacket design by Chris Simon. keywords: Ireland Literature Literary Criticism. FROM THE PUBLISHER - This pioneering study of the man who, as Richard Ellmann says, has come to be ranked by many critics as the dominant poet of our time' is now after many years available again in a clothbound edition. Yeats's life was one of the most complex of all poets in its outer and inner events. Mystical concerns - involvement with spiritualism, construction of a transcendental world system in A Vision - fitted among and around an unusually active involvement in public affairs, as a founder of the Abbey Theatre and as a senator of the new Irish Free State. These activities formed much of the matter of Yeats's middle and late work. Richard Ellmann, given access by Yeats's widow to tens of thousands of unpublished manuscript pages, has woven together life and works into a critical biography that even now, thirty years after its completion, is unsurpassed as an introduction to the man and his work. inventory #3062.
