Autorenporträt
William Butler Yeats, born on June 13, 1865, in Sandymount, Ireland, stands as a towering figure in 20th-century literature, blending the realms of poetry and playwriting with a distinctive literary style deeply rooted in the rich soil of Irish folklore and mythology. A Nobel laureate in Literature (1923), Yeats' work encompasses a vast exploration of human experience, history, and the mystical. Principally among his works, 'The Tables of the Law; & The Adoration of the Magi' (1897), offers insight into his esoteric interests and symbolist tendencies. His storytelling in this volume is imbued with spiritual undertones, reflecting his preoccupation with the otherworldly and the transcendental. Yeats' verse is often characterized by a lyrical quality and a rhythmic structure that echo the cadences of the Irish oral tradition, revealing his lifelong fascination with folklore and the occult. This particular book exemplifies his early literary style, which later evolved to incorporate modernist sensibilities. His contribution to literature continued until his death on January 28, 1939. Yeats' body of work, extending far beyond 'The Tables of the Law; & The Adoration of the Magi', continues to be celebrated for its artistic vigor, its intellectual depth, and its profound influence on both contemporary and future generations of writers.
