Om författaren

William Butler Yeats was born in Dublin, Ireland on June 13, 1865. He was a driving force behind the Irish Literary Revival and, along with Lady Gregory, Edward Martyn, and others, founded the Abbey Theatre, where he served as its chief playwright until the movement was joined by John Synge. Yeats' visa mer plays included The Countess Cathleen, The Land of Heart's Desire, Cathleen ni Houlihan, The King's Threshold, and Deirdre. Although a convinced patriot, Yeats deplored the hatred and the bigotry of the Nationalist movement, and his poetry is full of moving protests against it. He was appointed to the Irish Senate in 1922. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1923 for what the Nobel Committee described as "inspired poetry, which in a highly artistic form gives expression to the spirit of a whole nation." He is one of the few writers who completed their greatest works after being awarded the Nobel Prize. His poetry collections include The Wild Swans at Coole, Michael Robartes and the Dancer, The Tower, The Winding Stair and Other Poems, and Last Poems and Plays. He died on January 28, 1939 at the age of 73. (Bowker Author Biography) visa färre

Recensioner

Only read 18 selected poems (via TWEM). Many of Yeats' poems were about nature, history, and old age.

My favorite was The Lake of Isle of Innisfree, and this was my little review:

Oh, I just love this poem, though I do not know the Lake Isle of Innisfree...(it is in Ireland, and must be beautiful).

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet’s wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

What wonderful imagery, especially standing on the roadway or some grey pavement. Yeats can imagine this peaceful place deep in his heart. It reminds me so much of Walden and his cabin in Concord, MA. Who doesn't want peace in his life? Who doesn't find it in nature and alone with nature.

I love his declaration in the middle of the roadway, "I will go now!" Maybe he means to escape NOW or maybe he means he will disappear into his imagination NOW.

He knows exactly what he will have when he gets there: a fence, nine rows of beans, and a hive for the honey bees. It will be just him and the bees.

It's a beautiful, peaceful poem. I give it an A plus!

While I liked a few of the poems in this selection, most were just humdrum for me. I didn't hate them or find them impossible to understand (which is far too often the case with poetry for me) but they didn't speak to me.

These are the poems I liked best in the collection: "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death", "The Living Beauty", "The Hawk", "The Cat and the Moon" and "Another Song of a Fool"

I think I am done with Yeats for the moment -- there were a lot of poems in this collection I felt I should like but none of them really connected with me.

Eh, I find that both this audiobook & the poems therein leave me lukewarm. I may try other Yeats poems but not in audio form...
