Cola, ... A Lame Boy. Monks and Inquisitors. Scene I. A Little Moorish Room in the Village of Azubia. In the centre of the room a chafing dish. Mosada. [alone] Three times the roses have grown less and less, As slowly Autumn climbed the golden throne Where sat old Summer fading into song, And thrice the peaches ushed upon the walls, And thrice the corn around the sickles amed, Since 'mong my people, tented on the hills, He stood a messenger. In April's prime (Swallows were ashing their white breasts above Or perching on the tents, a-weary still From waste seas cross'd, yet ever garrulous) Along the velvet vale I saw him come: In Autumn, when far down the mountain slopes The heavy clusters of the grapes were full, I saw him sigh and turn and pass away; For I and all my people were accurst Of his sad God; and down among the grass Hiding my face, I cried long, bitterly.

Essays in Honour of Eamonn Cantwell
Author: Warwick Gould
Publisher: Open Book Publishers
ISBN: 1783741805
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
This number of Yeats Annual collects the essays resulting from the University College Cork/ESB International Annual W. B. Yeats Lectures Series (2003-2008) by Roy Foster, Warwick Gould, John Kelly, Paul Muldoon, Bernard O’Donoghue and Helen Vendler. Those that were available in pamphlet form are now collectors’ items, but here is the complete series. These revised essays cover such themes as Yeats and the Refrain, Yeats as a Love Poet, Yeats, Ireland and Europe, the puzzles he created and solved with his art of poetic sequences, and his long and crucial interaction with the emerging T. S. Eliot. The series was inaugurated by a study of Yeats and his Books, which marked the gift to the Boole Library, Cork, of Dr Eamonn Cantwell’s collection of rare editions of books by Yeats (here catalogued by Crónán Ó Doibhlin). Many of the volume’s fifty-six plates offer images of artists’ designs and resulting first editions. This bibliographical theme is continued with Colin Smythe’s census of surviving copies of Yeats’s earliest separate publication, Mosada (1886) and a resultant piece by Warwick Gould on that dramatic poem’s source in the legend of The Phantom Ship. John Kelly reveals Yeats’s ghost-writing for Sarah Allgood; Geert Lernout discovers the source for Yeats’s ‘Tulka’, Günther Schmigalle unearths his surprising connexions with American communist colonists in Virginia, while Deirdre Toomey edits some new letters to the French anarchist, Auguste Hamon—all providing new annotation for standard editions. The volume is rounded with review essays by Colin McDowell (on A Vision, and Berkeley, Hone and Yeats), shorter reviews of current studies by Michael Edwards, Jad Adams and Deirdre Toomey, and obituaries of Jon Stallworthy (Nicolas Barker) and Katharine Worth (Richard Cave).

Prolegomena to the Study of Yeats's Plays
Author: George Brandon Saul
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 1512806595
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
This book is, in a sense, complementary to the author's Prolegomena to the Study of Yeats's Poems. Based on the reasonably definitive Collected Plays (London, 1952; New York, 1953), it essays for each play a correction of any error in final dating if such error exists; a full publication record (keyed to a complete bibliography), followed by a reference to Wade's Bibliography for every translation there recorded; notations on first production if the play has had production; a statement of what is known about dates of composition and revision, and relevant concerns; resolution—in careful glosses—of conceivable obscurities; reference to really important critical comment; and pertinent suggestion of parallel passages. Appendices present notes on uncollected or unpublished Yeatsian drama and on the many errors of the 1953 American edition of the plays. This comprehensive study will be valuable to all Yeatsians and students of the Irish Renaissance in general, as well as anyone seriously concerned with modern drama. Like its sister Prolegomena, it will be a particular timesaver to neophytes in Yeatsian scholarship.

Irish Poetry under the Union, 1801–1924
Author: Matthew Campbell
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1107471559
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
This book retells the story of Irish poetry written in English between the union of Britain and Ireland in 1801 and the early years of the Irish Free State. Through careful poetic and historical analysis, Matthew Campbell offers ways to read that poetry as ruptured, musical, translated and new. The book starts with the Romantic songs and parodies of nationalist and unionist writers - Moore, Mahony, Ferguson and Mangan - in times of defeat, resurgence and famine. It continues through a discussion of English Victorian poets such as Tennyson, Arnold and Hopkins, who wrote Irish poems as the British Empire unraveled. Campbell's treatment ends with Yeats, seeking a new poetry emerging from under union in times of violence and civil war. The book offers both a literary history of nineteenth-century Irish poetry and a way of reading it for scholars of Irish studies as well as Romantic and Victorian literature.
