초록
The relationship between Yeats and Joyce is multi-layered. It invites our intertextual explications by comparing their works as well as biographical ones. Stephen’s villanelle in Joyce’s A Portrait can be read as Joyce’s covert response or an ironical allusion to Yeats’s love poem “The Song of Wandering Aengus.” The comparison clarifies the latter’s latent aspect as a muse-poem but, more significantly, a striking difference between each narrator’s attitude to the muse-temptress: the passionate wanderer in pursuit of her vs. the weary lover with supplication to her. Consequently, I suggest that the refrain in the villanelle, “Are you not weary of ardent ways,” could be also read as if Yeats had uttered his repressed question to Maud Gonne who was politically “ardent.”
