検索キーワード： "W B Yeats" 自伝・回顧録

Described by Yeats as a 'bread and butter' letter to Sweden, and 'at last a part of [his] autobiography', The Bounty of Sweden compellingly recounts his journey to Stockholm to accept the prestigious Nobel Prize in Literature. An exemplary piece of travel writing, The Bounty of Sweden includes a profound meditation on Stockholm itself, detailing Yeats's fascination with the Swedish Royal Court and documenting his charming encounters with the local people of the city.

Dramatis Personae is a four part autobiographic collection, published by Yeats in 1936 and detailing incidents, events, and people he met who influenced his artistic development as a poet. The first section is Dramatis Personae and describes Yeats' meetings with Lady Augusta Gregory at Coole Park, Galway, which eventually led to the creation of the Irish National Theatre Society and the opening of the Abbey Theatre in 1904.
