William Butler Yeats

William Butler Yeats (13. júní, 1865 – 28. janúar, 1939) var írskt skáld og leikskáld sem var einn af frumkvöðlum írsku bókmenntaendurreisnarinnar fyrir aldamótin 1900. Hann var einn af stofnendum Abbey Theater leikhússins í Dublin 1904. Hann var einnig mikill áhugamaður um dulspeki og guðspeki og kynnti sér Hindúatrú. Hann fékk sæti í írsku öldungadeildinni 1922. Þótt hann sé eitt af lykilskáldum á ensku á 20. öldinni fékkst hann ekki við óbundið form líkt og svo mörg önnur módernísk skáld heldur orti undir hefðbundnum bragarháttum. Hann hlaut bókmenntaverðlaun Nóbels árið 1923.
