This is an investigation of Yeats's experiments with the media of
language and dance in his plays. He was allied to other artists of
the 1890s in his fascination with the biblical dancer Salome and in
his preoccupation with things Japanese, particularly "Noh" theatre
with its central dance. The impact of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes
also played its part in influencing Yeats's drama and he took
interest in the "dance-as-meaning" debate. The book contains new
data on Yeats's "At the Hawk's Well" dancer, Ito and new
information on his personal acquaintance with music-hall and
Ballets Russes from yet unpublished letters.
