Description

Yeats and Women , published originally in the Yeats Annuals series, collects eight essays on Yeats's relationships with women, two collections of letters to him and his broadcast, 'Poems about Women'. The essays cover sexuality and its dynamic in Yeats's writing: his attitude to feminism and to the 'feminist occult'; his relationships with Maud Gonne, Dorothea Hunter, Olivia Shakespear, Florence Farr, Iseult Gonne and George Yeats. Yeats's relationship with Lady Gregory and her co-authorship of Cathleen ni Houlihan is analysed. The collection includes 12 plates.
