The Poetry of William Butler Yeats

Here is the notional schedule for our discussion of Yeats' poetry.

I suspect that we will probably make adjustments as we proceed, depending on how our discussions go and whether we make changes to the reading list.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions on the schedule or reading list.

You should find the poems in any anthology of Yeats' poems or at this web site
