Title: Passionate action
Description: "Drawing on Yeats's correspondence with fellow theater artists as well as on the myriad drafts of his plays, this book traces the conflict through which Yeats the playwright mastered and transmuted the traditional elements of drama, fusing them to create a body of wholly modern plays that still exert their influence upon contemporary playwrights."--Jacket.
