The World of Movement in Stillness: A Study on “Under Ben Bulben”
Abstract
As Yeats believed the regeneration of body and the eternity of soul, he couldaccept the death of his body serenely, I think. That is because he accepted somemain thoughts of Buddhism. Or at least he found some similarity between the Irishthoughts and the Oriental thoughts.
This paper focused on examining Buddhist thoughts reflected in “Under BenBulben”, though in this poem, there was no word nor phrase indicating Buddhism.There were lots of words and phrases indicating Irish thoughts and Christianity, butnobody can deny that there lay Buddhist thoughts in the background.
In conclusion, Yeasts accepted Buddhism and adapted it to his purpose andcreated his religion.
