Abstract
William Butler Yeats was a legendary figure who cannot be bound within a particular genre or age. He appreciated strong senses of Romanticism and Modernism. Irish nationalism comes as essential ingredient in many of his poems. His strong personality lies within his bravery to speak against English in English. He had great influence upon his successor Irish poets and other modern European poets. Irish nationalism and landscape, cry of humanity and quest for Oriental spiritualism are some aspects of his poetry. He was also a visionary and showed the degradation of morality and upcoming apocalypse in his poetry. His poetry stimulated his countrymen to free themselves from the bondage of their colonial master. He possessed multifaceted talents and had fascination for Oriental culture and literature. In my paper, I have endeavored to show how Yeats’ verses have created a timeless appeal through which he still speaks, inspires and rules even after several decades of his death.
