About this product

Product Information

Breathtaking in range, The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats includes all of the poems authorized by Yeats for inclusion and encompasses the entire arc of his career: reworkings of ancient Irish myths and legends, meditations on youth and old age, whimsical songs of love, and somber poems of life in a nation torn by war and uprising. 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.

One of the best poets, but...
often too Ireland-centric. Can be obscure to the non-Irish reader, or even (I suspect) to many an Irish reader as well, with so many references to ancient Irish mythological and fairy-tale characters. But at his best, Yeats (who, upon my discovery of his "For Anne Gregory" and "Memory" in high school, became one of my very first favorite Western poets) is very moving with his beautiful rhymes and lines, mostly about love. There are many gems in this Complete Poems volume, both immediately resplendent ones and ones that reveal their beauty in time with repeated readings. And, perhaps the best commendation for Yeats came from the praises and admiration of T. S. Eliot (my favorite poet of all time).

The Evolution of a Great Irish Poet
This volume includes Yeat's earliest poems to those of his later years. I personally enjoy the earlier poems based on Irish myth and history. Includes such great poems as Easter 1916 and The Wandering of Oisin. Unlike many poets Yeats poems can be reread over and over again, Yeats produced quality, and many of his poems are histrically important pieces of Irish culture.

A great book!
Beautiful writing for the most part.Some things and themes I don't quite get,but that comes down to cultural differences and since I'm always eager to learn,that's no problem.Plus the woman I love is a major fan of Yeat's work and I wanted to explore that.
