Yeats’S White Vellum Notebook, 1930–1933, Wayne K. Chapman May 2018

Yeats’S White Vellum Notebook, 1930–1933, Wayne K. Chapman

International Yeats Studies

This essay examines the present state of affairs concerning “one of the great literary manuscripts of our time, the great vellum notebook” that Sotheby’s advertised and sold for the first time in 1985. That sale and a subsequent one in 1990 are related to the contents of the notebook as ascertained from finding aids used by the editors of the Cornell Yeats series, including Chapman, as well as from the examination of extant microfilms of the notebook, the location of the original having been lost. Particularly useful for new and on-going textual-genetic studies in Yeats collections at the National Library …


India In Yeats’S Early Imagination: Mohini Chatterjee And Kālidāsa, Ashim Dutta May 2018

India In Yeats’S Early Imagination: Mohini Chatterjee And Kālidāsa, Ashim Dutta

International Yeats Studies

Yeats's Re-Enchanted Nature, Seán Hewitt May 2018

Yeats's Re-Enchanted Nature, Seán Hewitt

International Yeats Studies

W. B. Yeats identified anti-Enlightenment principles as being central to his generation’s artistic project. Characterizing the worldview he was writing against, he argued that “the mischief began at the end of the seventeenth century when man became passive before a mechanized nature” (OBMV, xxvii). By charting the processes by which he reimagined nature and the poet’s (and poem’s) position in relation to it, we can begin to understand Yeats’s developing ecological relationships as a matrix for his shifting understanding of mysticism (and vice versa). Focusing in particular on the prefatory texts to The Shadowy Waters, this article …
