초록

An examination of Yeats’s apocalyptic works reveals a clear delineation of gender roles. The act of revelation is clearly seen as women’s work rather than the work of men, who are left to try and interpret—often incompletely—what women can intuit. This gender division, which is expressed in works like “The Second Coming” and “The Gift of Harun al-Rashid,” are rooted in the system of A Vision, as it appears in the 1925 and 1937 editions, as well as in the relationship between the husband and wife who co-created it through the system’s raw material, as preserved in the automatic script, dream notebooks, card catalog, and draft materials.

Abstract

The act of revelation is clearly seen as women’s work rather than the work of men, who are left to try and interpret—often incompletely—what women can intuit. This gender division, which is expressed in works like “The Second Coming” and “The Gift of Harun al-Rashid,” are rooted in the system of A Vision, as it appears in the 1925 and 1937 editions, as well as in the relationship between the husband and wife who co-created it through the system’s raw material, as preserved in the automatic script, dream notebooks, card catalog, and draft materials.
