초록
Yeats attempts, in Last Poems, to come to terms with his own death. And while it is his own death that he faces, we should recall that he did not approach death as a perceived end. Instead, he wrote of it in A Vision as the moment when “consciousness passes from Husk to Spirit” as the soul begins its preparations for rebirth. The distinction between conceiving of death as a strange beginning rather than oblivion is in part connected with Yeats’s concept of time and of the nature of existence, as detailed in A Vision. This approach, which had origins in his early conceptualization of time and its relationship to death, is expressed throughout the poetry of this collection.
Abstract
Yeats attempts, in Last Poems, to come to terms with his own death. And while it is his own death that he faces, we should recall that he did not approach death as a perceived end. Instead, he wrote of it in A Vision as the moment when “consciousness passes from Husk to Spirit” as the soul begins its preparations for rebirth. The distinction between conceiving of death as a strange beginning rather than oblivion is in part connected with Yeats’s concept of time and of the nature of existence, as detailed in A Vision. This approach, which had origins in his early conceptualization of time and its relationship to death, is expressed throughout the poetry of this collection.
