“CUCHULAIN COMFORTED” AND “THE BLACK TOWER” BY W. B. YEATS: POETICS OF THE MICROCYCLE
Abstract
The two last poems by William Butler Yeats are examined in the paper. By means of the coherent analysis of their poetics (stanzas, image system, key motives and dialogical contacts) the conclusion is drawn about their artistic specificity and position in W. B. Yeats’s work. The poems being the poetic demonstration of W. B. Yeats’s aesthetic beliefs are a microcycle and consequently can be interpreted in conjunction only.
