5.0 out of 5 stars Yeat As Creative Critic, April 18, 2002
By 
William F. Dougherty (West Hartford, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Collected Works of W.B. Yeats Vol. V: Later Essays (Paperback)
Yeats' literary criticism demonstrates his tenets and poetics-his working notions of poetry and culture-far more immediately and accessibly in his essays than he does in the web of arcana expounded in A Vision (q.v.). Of essays gathered here, some are seminal not only to Yeats' poetics but also to interpretive approaches to literature. The most significant-"The Philosophy of Shelley's Poetry" (precursor to archetypal symbolism and to Jungian ideas of the collective unconscious), "The Symbolism of Poetry," "The Celtic Element in Literature," "Certain Noble Plays of Japan" (the model of Yeats' Noh plays), and "A General Introduction for My Work."
