Yeats and Maud Gonne
Abstract
The first introductory part of this paper very briefly surveys the life of Gonne,how her relationship with Yeats began and continued, and how she influenced himin writing his poems. Although it is true that she brought into his life “anoverpowering tumult,” it is also true that between fifty and sixty of Yeats’s poemswere created in the wake of their relationship.
The main part of the paper analyzes Yeats’s poems chosen from his early,middle and late period of life. Some poems, such as “The Sorrow of Love,” “HeWishes for the Cloths of Heaven,” “Adam’s Curse,” “No Second Troy,” “The ColdHeaven,” “A Prayer for my Daughter,” “Among School Children” are more closelyand thoroughly read than others. In reading the poems, this paper tries to show howthe poet’s representations of Gonne in the poems reveal not only the actual situationsof their relationship at the moment of their writing but also the aesthetic andpolitical ideologies of the poet himself at that moment.
