Beschreibung

This book asserts that Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) was a major precursor of W.B. Yeats (1865 - 1939), and shows how Wilde-s image and intellect set in train a powerful influence within Yeats-s creative imagination that remained active throughout the poet-s life. The intellectual concepts, metaphysical speculations and artistic symbols and images which Yeats appropriated from Wilde changed the poet-s perspective and informed the imaginative system of beliefs that Yeats formulated as the basis of his dramatic and poetic work.Section One, 'Influence and Identity' (1888 - 1895), explores the personal relationship of these two writers, their nationality and historical context as factors in influence. Section Two, 'Mask and Image' (1888 - 1917), traces the creative process leading to Yeats-s construction of the antithetical mask, and his ideas on image, in relation to the role of Wilde as his precursor. Finally, 'Salomé: Symbolism, Dance and Theories of Being' (1891 - 1939) concentrates on the immense influence that Wilde-s symbolist play, Salomé, wrought on Yeats-s imaginative work and creative sensibility.
