The Collected Works in Verse and Prose of William Butler Yeats, Vol. 4 (of 8) / The Hour-glass. Cathleen ni Houlihan. The Golden Helmet. / The Irish Dramatic Movement William Butler Yeats was an Irish poet and dramatist, and one of the foremost figures of 20th century literature. A pillar of both the Irish and British literary establishments, in his later years Yeats served as an Irish Senator for two terms. He was a driving force behind the Irish Literary Revival, and along with Lady Gregory and Edward Martyn founded the Abbey Theatre, serving as its chief during its early years. In 1923 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for what the Nobel Committee described as "inspired poetry, which in a highly artistic form gives expression to the spirit of a whole nation." He was the first Irishman so honored. Yeats is generally considered one of the few writers who completed their greatest works after being awarded the Nobel Prize; such works include and nbsp;The Tower and nbsp;(1928) and and nbsp;The Winding Stair and Other Poems and nbsp;(1929).
This edited volume presents four one-act plays by W.B. Yeats that were written in collaboration with Lady Gregory.

"Drawing on Yeats's correspondence with fellow theater artists as well as on the myriad drafts of his plays, this book traces the conflict through which Yeats the playwright mastered and transmuted the traditional elements of drama, fusing them to create a body of wholly modern plays that still exert their influence upon contemporary playwrights."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
