With a new Introduction by Cedric Watts, Research Professor of English, University of Sussex. W. B. Yeats was Romantic and Modernist, mystical dreamer and leader of the Irish Literary Revival, Nobel prizewinner, dramatist and, above all, poet. He began writing with the intention of putting his 'very self' into his poems. T. S. Eliot, one of many who proclaimed the Irishman's greatness, described him as 'one of those few whose history is the history of their own time, who are part of the consciousness of an age which cannot be understood without them'. For anyone interested in the literature of the late nineteenth century and the twentieth century, Yeats's work is essential. This volume gathers the full range of his published poetry, from the hauntingly beautiful early lyrics (by which he is still fondly remembered) to the magnificent later poems which put beyond question his status as major poet of modern times. Paradoxical, proud and passionate, Yeats speaks today as eloquently as ever.

''Tread softly because you tread on my dreams'' is one of the most well-known and repeated lines of poetry ever written. Less haunting, but still so relevant: ''Life is a long preparation for something that never happens.''W B Yeats was one of the foremost figures of 20th century literature. Winner of a Nobel prize, he was also a political figure, and, as is evident from his earlier work, fascinated by Irish folklore and the occult. He was also deeply affected by the First World War and the Anglo-Irish and Irish civil wars. It is a testament to the greatness of Yeats'' poetry that he attempts to bear witness to these emotional and historical forces.This perfectly pitched collection includes some of the greatest poetry of the 20th century.

W.B. Yeats's Selected Poems is edited with an introduction and notes by Timothy Webb in Penguin Modern Classics.Few have lived their ideas so passionately and nobly as W.B. Yeats in his love affairs, politics and poetry. From his youth in the 1880s, a fertile dreamer rediscovering and remaking the Irish tradition, he grew into a great and innovative poet of the twentieth century. This selection of Yeats's work includes the final book from the unjustly neglected narrative poem The Wanderings of Oisin and a number of lyrics from Yeats's work as poetic dramatist. This edition breaks new ground by allowing the reader to engage with a dozen poems in alternative versions; in many other cases it provides significant variants, so that Yeats's struggle to revise his poetry can be experienced with unusual immediacy. It also includes explanatory and textual notes for each poem.W B Yeats (1865-1939) was one of the great and innovative poets of the twentieth century. Much of his most vigorous verse on love, sex, Irish and international politics, the complexities of the occult and the 'sedentary toil' of poetry was produced in the years between his fiftieth birthday in 1915 and his death in 1939.If you enjoyed ...

From the publication of his first poems at the age of twenty, to his Nobel Prize in 1923, W. B. Yeats grew from an aspiring poet spellbound by the mystical life, to an Irish senator crafting modernist poetry around a complex system of symbolism. When You are Old: Early Poems and Fairy Tales returns to the younger Yeats, encountering him through Irish mythology and much-beloved poems like "The Lake Isle of Innisfree" and "He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven" that made him popular during his own lifetime. The poems, plays, and prose collected here present Yeats as the 1890s aesthete who dressed as a dandy, collected Irish folklore, dabbled in magic, and wrote beautiful poems for his beloved, steeped in the late-Victorian aesthetics of the symbolist and decadence movements, as well as early modernism. Approaching his early verse and tales with innocent candor as if reading Yeats for the first time, this volume proffers lush images of western Ireland full of faeries and otherworldly beings, framed within a profound fascination with aestheticism and the Arts and Crafts Movement, all giving expression to Yeats''s early nationalist sympathies.

Kniha symbolických próz irského spisovatele a nositele Nobelovy ceny za literaturu z roku 1923 Williama Butlera Yeatse (1865-1939) nachází jednotu historických epoch, hlavních období lidského života a charakterových typů v cyklu měsíčních fází. Kniha měla být po vzoru Poundových Cantos sumou autorova poznání a představuje zdroj nejpůsobivějších Yeatsových symbolů z jeho pozdního tvůrčího období. Yeats věnoval Vizi téměř patnáct let svého života a první verzi z roku 1924 upravoval a doplňoval až do roku 1931. Jeho básnická tvorba tím však ani v nejmenším neutrpěla a pozdní básnické sbírky Věž (The Tower) a Točité schodiště (The Winding Stair) z let 1928 a 1933 jsou právem pokládány za její vrchol. Vize (poprvé vyšla v roce 1937) však není pouhým výkladem autorova esoterického systému. Obsahuje i autobiografické pasáže, v nichž autor vysvětluje genezi této knihy, a nemalý podíl na jeho vzniku měla Yeatsova žena Bertha Georgie - médium a zprostředkovatelka automatického psaní, které tvoří základní obrazy a metafory tohoto výjimečného díla.

The Tower was W. B. Yeats''s first major collection of poetry as Nobel Laureate after the receiving the Nobel Prize in 1923. It is considered to be one of his most influential collections. The title refers to Thoor Ballylee Castle, a Norman tower that Yeats purchased in 1917 and later restored. The Tower includes some of his greatest and most innovative poems including ''Sailing to Byzantium'', a lyrical meditation on man''s disillusionment with the physical world; ''Leda and the Swan'', a violent and graphic take on the Greek myth of Leda and Zeus and ''Among School Children'', a poetic contemplation of life, love and the creative process.

Kniha, kterou lze považovat za vyvrcholení celoživotní tvůrčí práce W. B. Yeatse a základní zdroj jeho pozdní filozoficko-symbolické poezie, vychází v novém českém překladu. Obsahově navazuje na myšlenky z esejů Magie či Per amica silentia lunae a na povídky jako Rosa alchemica, Desky zákona a Klanění králů. Kniha tak spojuje Yeatsův zájem o irský folklor, mystiku a ezoterické vědy, ale i o filozofii, politiku a samozřejmě básnickou tvorbu. Dílo je rozděleno do pěti knih věnovaných psychologii, dějinám umění, estetice či filozofii dějin. Lze ho vnímat jako ucelený soubor „metafor pro poezii“, básnických obrazů v próze i jako ambiciózní pokus o načrtnutí všeobjímajícího filozoficko-estetického systému.

The figures of Michael Robartes and Owen Aherne appear throughout the writing of the great Irish poet W.B. Yeats, featuring in his poems, short fictions, dialogues and as authorities in notes to his work. Bringing together into one volume published and unpublished writings featuring these two enigmatic figures, W.B. Yeats’s Robartes-Aherne Writings traces their history and the development of Yeats’s mystical thought that culminated (twice) in the publication of his visionary work A Vision (1925, 1937). Including reproductions of manuscript and notebook pages as well as transcriptions and extracts from a wide range of Yeats’s mystical writings and substantial commentary and annotation throughout, this book is an essential resource for scholars of Yeats’s thought, his stylistic evolution and the esoteric influences on modernist writing in the early 20th century.
