W.B. Yeats, man and poet

First published in 1949, this biography of W.B. Yeats attempts to help readers to understand some of his obscure poems, to see the interrelationships between work written at different times in his life, and to realize something of how Yeats himself viewed his life and his poetry at particular significant moments. The book concentrates attention on the poet's own writings, set within the framework of his life, rather than on the critical views of others, and the text incorporates figures such as Maud Gonne, George Moore, J.M. Synge and Lady Gregory
