초록
Yeats’s theory of masks develops at a crucial moment in Irish history—in the year after the 1916 rebellion—in which an antithetical vision of the nation begins to take hold. The Easter Rising presents itself in Per Amica Silentia Lunae as historical subtext that obliges Yeats’s inner need for opposition, and his correspondence with Lady Gregory, Maud Gonne, and others at the time of the Rising both challenges and fortifies his emerging theory of masks. Per Amica is a work that resorts frequently to occult imagery, conceiving of what Herbert Levine calls “collective mind” often in mystical terms, as Anima Mundi or Anima Hominis. But in the year leading up to its publication, Yeats’s inner need for opposition is also manifest rhetorically, in correspondence in which Yeats reaches beyond himself, beyond certain fixed ideas or static preconceptions that he held about events and those involved. In this sense, collective mind is registered for Yeats, always if not ultimately, as a matter of argued perspective.
Abstract
Yeats’s theory of masks develops at a crucial moment in Irish history—in the year after the 1916 rebellion—in which an antithetical vision of the nation begins to take hold. The Easter Rising presents itself in Per Amica Silentia Lunae as historical subtext that obliges Yeats’s inner need for opposition, and his correspondence with Lady Gregory, Maud Gonne, and others at the time of the Rising both challenges and fortifies his emerging theory of masks. Per Amica is a work that resorts frequently to occult imagery, conceiving of what Herbert Levine calls “collective mind” often in mystical terms, as Anima Mundi or Anima Hominis. But in the year leading up to its publication, Yeats’s inner need for opposition is also manifest rhetorically, in correspondence in which Yeats reaches beyond himself, beyond certain fixed ideas or static preconceptions that he held about events and those involved. In this sense, collective mind is registered for Yeats, always if not ultimately, as a matter of argued perspective.
