Yeats, William Butler
First one must raise the question, "What is a Dubliner?" This book attempts to answer, by chronicling the lives of six famous people who lived in Dublin: W.B. Yeats, James Joyce, Jonathan Swift, Wolfe Tone, Oscar Wilde, and Edward Carson. There is no better introduction to these personalities than Famous Dubliners.
In the first full-scale biography of William Butler Yeats in more than 45 years, Keith Alldritt radically alters the traditional portrait of one of the greatest and most beloved poets of the 20th century. Placing Yeats within the context of his times, he reveals the determined careerist, shrewd manipulator, and political operator behind Yeats' familiar image as a dreamer, idealist and mystic. 16-page photo insert.
