		The martyrs, as Yeats depicts them, are all passionate people, with dreams of love in their soul, who have experienced spiritual death at the invincible forces of society's status quo.
		Yeats, himself a romantic, uses his character to make a statement to all dreamers and all cynics, and it is a deeply effective technique at this point in the poem.
		Yeats' descriptions of "beautiful" and "mild" are ironic because to a traditionalist, such traits are virtues, are all that is expected of a woman.

	W. B. Yeats and "A Vision": The Divine
		As Yeats learned from Shri Purohit Swami if not earlier, to the main schools of Vedanta dualism is an illusion, but Advaita Vedanta is called ‘non-dualist’ rather than ‘unitary’, because it recognises that the roots of duality are deep, and that matter and spirit both exist in their own modes.
		Yeats conceives of a deity, but it is one which is so total as to be without interest to the poet, although the saint or mystic may strive to know the whole.
		Yeats, like the Indian sages is ready to explore the root and seed of desire, and to examine thought, but the ultimate origins are so inscrutable as to be hidden even from the gods of this world, and possibly even from the creative force itself.

	[minstrels] A Prayer For My Daughter -- William Butler Yeats
		Yeats was deeply involved in Irish politics, particularly the struggle for freedom from England.
		In the course of his political activities Yeats met an extremely beautiful rebel called Maud Gonne and was influenced by her strength of character and political ideas.
		It is bad enough that Yeats squanders his undoubted talent and art on such sexist diatribe, but when he pens his "intellectual" hatred under the guise of fatherly concern and social and moral philosophy then the sheer hypocrisy of his "rant and cant" (or in street vernacular - whingeing) negates entirely that same "high art".

	Mystical Yeats
		Just as Yeats himself once said: “The mystical life is the centre of all that I do and all that I think and all that I write.” Besides the poems this theme is elaborated in the best way in Yeats´ book A Vision, and also greatly revealed in his Essays and dramas.
		Although Yeats saw and felt around himself the unchangeable order of dying and fading of temporary things, he was looking for something what wouldn’t be affected by this change, the immortality and eternity.
		However, Yeats logically, as he was progressing in the effort to be better and better, wrote many of his best poems at the end of his life.

	W. B. Yeats and "A Vision": Contemporary Reviews
		The different types of people possible are all, as it were, regular stages in a circular journey to and fro between complete objectivity at one pole and complete subjectivity at the other; and this journey may be represented by the orbit of the moon, to which it corresponds.
		One feels that Yeats has been aware of these objections, and has invented, in order to meet them, an apparatus so complex that it entirely fails to impose itself by convincing us of its inevitability, because it could apparently be used to justify almost anything.
		Yeats rejected the methods of naturalism and applied himself to the problems of the individual mind.

		Yeats was to explore several more sides of himself, and of Ireland, before his Last Poems of 1938-39.
		And at his best, Yeats extends the meaning of love poetry beyond the obviously romantic: love becomes a revolutionary emotion, attaching the poet to friends, history, and the passionate life of the mind.
		Yeats lovers will find all six of these criteria fulfilled consistently throughout the Collected Works; skeptics and seekers can objectively test Irish Airman Predicts His Death; Sailing to Byzantium; Song of Wandering Aengus; Innisfree and other typically anthologized masterpieces to see if they meet at least 4 of the 6 standards.

		Yeats would no doubt have been aware of these dissenting voices, of which two are particularly significant, the esoteric Christianity of Anna Kingsford and the Indian Vedanta of T. Subba Row.
		Yeats was deeply involved in the enquiry into these principles in the Society's Esoteric Section, where the programme required him ‘to study tables of oriental symbolism.
		Part of the reason why Yeats never gives as clear a description of the character of the Passionate Body, or indeed any of the Principles, may well be that such a formulation was already clear in his own mind from Theosophy.

		Yeats manages to produce love poems that have a genuine passion that is surprisingly rare in poetry, specifically that of the modern day.
		Perhaps Yeats is representative of a type of romanticism that is moribund in modern literature, this is surely a tragic shame.
		However Yeats' examination of the human condition is not restricted to the romantic.

	Book review by JD
		Yeats had the great good fortune, and glory, to be present at the birth of a nation, modern Ireland — a nation whose consciousness he himself, through work on behalf of nationalist enterprises like the Abbey Theatre, had done much to form.
		As his friend, Blueshirt organizer Dermott MacManus, noted: “Yeats was not a fascist, but he was an authoritarian.” In none of his published work, correspondence, or recorded talk is there any trace of antisemitic feeling.
		Yeats has taken it upon himself to make a translation of mystical Hindu writings with the assistance of Shri Purohit Swami.
