초록

Yeats’s poem “Easter, 1916” has been much researched and written about.2) But in fact the poem’s form in relation to content has not received enough attention. That is, the external of the poem have been the main focus: the political, the social, and even the psychological. Not the poem itself as a dynamic force of “terrible beauty.” Yeats has paid so much attention to fashioning significance by way of form. If that is considered, it is time we should read the poem’s form as meaning, so we could have a deeper understanding and fuller appreciation of this poem. I see that “Easter, 1916” originates from the poetics of paradox: the paradoxical natures of man and language. I focus on feeling and thinking of the poem’s “terrible beauty” to find that “Easter, 1916” is the best lyrical elegy of the 20th century with multifarious meanings as Yeats desired by hiding his intention in it in perfect abstraction of the form he has sought for life.
