The Symbolism of Poetry

William Butler Yeats

Beschreibung

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) was an Irish poet, dramatist, writer and initiate, and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature. He was a driving force behind the Irish Literary Revival, and along with Lady Gregory founded the Abbey Theatre, serving as its chief during its early years. He was awarded the 1923 Nobel Prize in Literature, and later served two terms as a Senator of the Irish Free State.Considered one of the key English-language poets, Yates was a Symbolist, using allusive imagery and symbolic structures throughout his career. He chose words and assembled them so that, in addition to a particular meaning, they suggest abstract thoughts that may seem more significant and resonant. His use of symbols is usually something physical that is both itself and a suggestion of other, perhaps immaterial, timeless qualities.The Yeats’ short essay The Symbolism of Poetry was included in 1903 in the collection of Yeats’ non-fiction works and essays Ideas of Good and Evil, published in London by A.H. Bullen.It is one of the great Irish author's masterpieces of literary criticism. In it Yeats does not limit himself to analyzing the magic, charm and philosophy of the symbolism in poetry, but also manages to read these characteristics through his profound knowledge of symbols and archetypes, derived from his lifelong membership of The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a secret society dedicated to the study and practice of occult Hermeticism and metaphysics.

Lilly Richardsen

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the joints. In RA, the immune system mistakenly attacks the synovium, the lining of the membranes that surround the joints.  
This causes inflammation that can lead to joint damage, pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of function. RA commonly affects joints in the hands, wrists, and knees symmetrically, meaning both sides of the body are usually affected equally. It can also affect other organs and systems in the body. Treatment typically involves medication to reduce inflammation and pain, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery in advanced cases.  
Early diagnosis and treatment can help manage symptoms and prevent joint damage.
