초록

In contrast to Shakespeare’s diverse personality types of female characters, Yeats’s dramatic female characters are mostly passive and symbolic though none are evil. Yeats does not have a wide range of female characterization as Shakespeare did in terms of drama. Shakespeare’s female characters come in all kinds, having more subjective qualities and being well-rounded. However, Yeats’s female characters in the plays have a general trait: they often do not overcome social and cultural stereotypes because they are crafted according to his nationalist cause.
