The first edition, by the late Edward Malins, of this informative
guide to the life and works of one of the most important and
difficult poets of the 20th century, has now been extensively
revised by John Purkis. It begins by providing biographical details
on Yeats, with particular emphasis on his education, his appearance
and his characteristics. It then places the poet in his cultural
background, discussing the history of Ireland and major ideas which
influenced his poetry. This is followed by an updated critical
section which includes careful close readings of ten of his poems.
The book concludes with an extensive reference section containing
information about his many friends and their influence on and
connection with particular poems.
