The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats
The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats includes all of the poems authorized by Yeats for inclusion in his standard canon. Breathtaking in range, it encompasses the entire arc of his career, from luminous reworkings of ancient Irish myths and legends to passionate meditations on the demands and rewards of youth and old age, from exquisite, occasionally whimsical songs of love, nature, and art to somber and angry poems of life in a nation torn by war and uprising. In observing the development of rich and recurring images and themes over the course of his body of work, we can trace the quest of this century's greatest poet to unite intellect and artistry in a single magnificent vision. Revised and corrected, this edition includes Yeats's own notes on his poetry, complemented by explanatory notes from esteemed Yeats scholar Richard J. Finneran. The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats is the most comprehensive edition of one of the world's most beloved poets available in paperback.

The Celtic Twilight [图书] 谷歌图书
As an exploration of the longstanding connection between the people of Ireland and the inhabitants of the land of Fairy, this volume remains one of the best-known collections of Yeats's prose. Yeats, who had a profound belief in mysticism and theosophy, wrote with conviction of the realities and existence of the Fairies, both in his own life, and the daily lives of the Irish people. Not only does this volume offer a unique perspective and fascinating insight into the artistic and nationalistic aspects of one of the world's greatest poets, but also provides a terrific overview of Celtic fairy lore. This book, in tandem with the collected Irish folktales by Lady Gregory and Yeats, will complete any library on Irish folklore.
The Tower [图书] 豆瓣
The first edition of W. B. Yeats's "The Tower" appeared in bookstores in London on Valentine's Day, 1928. His English publisher printed just 2,000 copies of this slender volume of twenty-one poems, priced at six shillings. The book was immediately embraced by book buyers and critics alike, and it quickly became a bestseller.Subsequent versions of the volume made various changes throughout, but this Scribner facsimile edition reproduces exactly that seminal first edition as it reached its earliest audience in 1928, adding an introduction and notes by esteemed Yeats scholar Richard J. Finneran.Written between 1912 and 1927, these poems ("Sailing to Byzantium," "Leda and the Swan," and "Among School Children" among them) are today considered some of the best and most famous in the entire Yeats canon. As Virginia Woolf declared in her unsigned review of this collection, "Mr. Yeats has never written more exactly and more passionately."
