Abstract "By examining Yeats's worldmaking capacity to engage with the Irish past, this book offers a new understanding of Yeats's revivalism and its relation to his modernism. It considers, through close reading and contextual analysis, the nature of Yeats's achievements and innovations in poetry, drama, essays, autobiography, and occult philosophy"-- Provided by publisher.
