This paper aims to study the expansion of mourning in William Butler Yeats’s elegy. Yeats left behind many great elegies for the Irish who had lost their lives in England’s colonial domination. His elegies do not only offer the space for mourning but make a chain of mourning organized by the poet-narrator, the poetic object, and readers. Yeats indicates “interminable” morning which Jacques Derrida mentioned. For the continuity of mourning, he thought up a poetic style to break the tradition of pastoral elegy. Yeats suggests a dialogic relationship between the dead and the survivor using a symbol from “Easter, 1916” and “Her friends bring her a Christmas tree”. In the end, he invites the readers to the crossroad of mourning. The poet-narrator goes beyond the grave himself and makes the readers stand in the mourning place. At this point, the readers who are the indirect mourners change to the subject of mourning. Yeats’s poetic attempt indicates that the work of mourning should not be finished and should persist as long as the mourners could remember them such as Jacques Derrida who defines the work of mourning as “interminable” and “without reliable limit”. This study does not only demonstrate Yeats’s response to the question of how we remember the dead, but how we remember them interminably.
Abstract
This paper aims to study the expansion of mourning in William Butler Yeats’s elegy. Yeats left behind many great elegies for the Irish who had lost their lives in England’s colonial domination. His elegies do not only offer the space for mourning but make a chain of mourning organized by the poet-narrator, the poetic object, and readers. Yeats indicates “interminable” morning which Jacques Derrida mentioned. For the continuity of mourning, he thought up a poetic style to break the tradition of pastoral elegy. Yeats suggests a dialogic relationship between the dead and the survivor using a symbol from “Easter, 1916” and “Her friends bring her a Christmas tree”. In the end, he invites the readers to the crossroad of mourning. The poet-narrator goes beyond the grave himself and makes the readers stand in the mourning place. At this point, the readers who are the indirect mourners change to the subject of mourning. Yeats’s poetic attempt indicates that the work of mourning should not be finished and should persist as long as the mourners could remember them such as Jacques Derrida who defines the work of mourning as “interminable” and “without reliable limit”. This study does not only demonstrate Yeats’s response to the question of how we remember the dead, but how we remember them interminably.
