ENGLISH 150F: W. B. Yeats Winter 2006 |
W. B. Yeats (1865-1939) lived through some of the most significant transitions (poetic and historical) of the modern period. This seminar will carefully examine Yeats's work, above all his poetry but also parts of his voluminous prose writings and two of his numerous plays, in relation to these changes. Nationality, nationalism, fascism, the imagination, sexuality, the occult, modernity, Irishness — these are some of the themes that will focus our reading of Yeats's work during the quarter. |
