Anima Mundi in “Anima Mundi”
Abstract
Like many of ancient western and eastern mysterious religions, Yeats no longerdistinguishes between the great memory of Anima Mundi and the minds andmemories of its occupants. Also he reaffirms the four elements as integral to theWorld Soul concept. He assigns elemental attributes to the images glimpsed invisions, creating a fourfold model of perception. This short but important essayconstitutes the outstanding feature of Yeats's newly evolved concept, the AnimaMundi is not merely a place, a shadowy subliminal Hades. It is a congeries ofsouls, of discarnate intelligences whose multifarious activities range from regulatingnature's cycles to potential anamnesis.
