The Visionary Ethics of W.B. Yeats (original) (raw)

Abstract

DESCRIPTION W.B. Yeats and his wife George Hyde-Lees , in an attempt to make contact with the spirit world, conducted a series of experiments they devised during their honeymoon and almost daily for the next seven years, which included automatic writing and sleep and dream trances. The Yeatses' contact with other world spirits ultimately led to the metaphysical world view constructed in A Vision. This work examines the automatic writings in search of the relation between the soul and the imagination in the Yeatses' construct.
