Eliot on Yeats: Poetry and Poetics

Lee Cheolhee

Abstract

Eliot seems to have been much impressed by Yeats's poetics and poetictechniques, in particular the union of emotion and reason. Not only is Yeats asupreme Romantic - he is a poet of mysticism. To Eliot, Yeats is not just a greatpoet, but a great craftsman; Yeats's reputation as such a poet has remained strong,from the beginning up until now, as Eliot has foreseen. In Yeats's works, there areboth aesthetic and mysterious elements, and just as we could call him aromantic-mystic poet.
Eliot thinks highly of Yeats's pure poetry, with poetics based on the principleof art for art's sake. He praises Yeats as a great poet-craftsman, as we have seenin his works above.
Yeats has been under the influence of French symbolists's poetic techniques,such as those of Baudelaire, Mallareme,. Neval, Verlaine. In Yeats's works, there istheir influence.
