초록
One of Yeats’s earliest plays The Pot of Broth bases its story on a widespread European folktale about a poor tramp who tricks a stingy woman for food. In Europe there are different versions of this story. Yeats selects for this one-act play the most important elements in the oral tradition. He adapts the narrative into a play, in which we can discover his idea and practice of dramaturgy. This paper explores how Yeats uses lyrical forms such as songs, monologs, dialogs, and stage directions to reconstruct, reshape, and retell the well-known folktale.
Abstract
One of Yeats’s earliest plays The Pot of Broth bases its story on a widespread European folktale about a poor tramp who tricks a stingy woman for food.

He adapts the narrative into a play, in which we can discover his idea and practice of dramaturgy. This paper explores how Yeats uses lyrical forms such as songs, monologs, dialogs, and stage directions to reconstruct, reshape, and retell the well-known folktale.
