This study draws on the resources of modern literary theory to reconsider central issues of classical Modernism in the writings of Eliot, Pound and Yeats. It examines both poetry and critical and cultural writings in a postmodern perspective, taking an approach which is theoretically and historically informed. Grounding its analysis in contemporary social and political concerns, the study opens up the period from 1908-1922 in a retrospect afforded by the crisis years of the 1930s, to recover the repressed discourses of gender, class and nationality at the heart of Modernism.

An original, yet lucid and accessible introduction to the often difficult poetry of W.B. Yeats. No poet in this century has shaped his work so directly out of reaction to the history of his times. Yeats's antithetical vision, his fascination with conflict, energy, turbulence and the bodiliness of being, his sense of poetry as a dramatic process, indicate how closely bound up are the stylistic and the thematic dimensions of his art. As a poet of carnality as much as of politics, Yeats is unexcelled. The aim of this book is to show what an exciting writer he is, to reveal the relevance and contemporaneity of his work, even in its more esoteric aspects, and to make its study less intimidating than it can sometimes seem.
