Words Alone - Yeats and his Inheritances

by R. F. Foster

ISBN: 9780199641659

Published: 2012-12-13

Literary Criticism

Yeats is usually seen as a great modernist innovator. This book goes against the grain to explore the Irish literary traditions that preceded and influenced him--romantic 'national tales' in post-Union Ireland, the poetry and polemic of the Young Ireland movement, the occult novels of Sheridan LeFanu, and William Carleton's 'peasant fictions'.
