This essay offers a brief comparison of William Blake and Yeats’s ideas of history and historical change by examining the prevalent figures used to delineate the shape of history: the vortex in Blake and the gyres in Yeats. It is argued that the two shapes allow the poets to represent radically distinct views on apocalypse and the possibility of release from history.
