WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS Born, Dublin, Ireland, 1865 Died, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France, 1939 This document was originally published in Minute History of the Drama Purchase Plays by William Butler Yeats W HEN Yeats' dramatic poem, The Countess Cathleen , was used in 1899 as the inaugural piece of the newly conceived Irish literary theater, "a politician, a cardinal, and newspaper combined forces to stir up opposition to the play on the ground that it was blasphemous and unpatriotic." [ ] As a consequence, the opening performance was attended by a large body of Dublin police prepared to quell any disturbance. Far from dampening the enthusiasm of the little band who were striving to create for Ireland a national theater, it spurred them on to greater efforts. It is largely due to the leadership and vision of W. B. Yeats and Lady Augusta Gregory that we owe later successes of dramatists like Padriac Colum, J. M. Synge , "A.E." (George Russell), and Sean O'Casey . In the Abbey Theater under the sponsorship of the Irish National Theater Society, these playwrights found a group of sympathetic actors preeminently fitted to interpret Irish dramas many of which were destined for a lasting fame outside of Ireland. "If frequent productions be the test of popularity," says Ernest Boyd [

Yeats, was an Irish poet, dramatist and mystic. He served as an Irish Senator in the 1920s. Born in Dublin, in 1865, the firstborn of John Butler Yeats and Susan Mary Yeats. In 1877, W.B. entered Godolphin school, which he attended for four years, after which he continued his education at Erasmus Smith High School, in Dublin. For a time (from 1884 - 1886), he attended the Metropolitan School of Art. In 1885, Yeats's first poems were published in the Dublin University Review. In 1889, Yeats met Maud Gonne, a young heiress who was beginning to devote herself to the Irish nationalist movement. Gonne admired Yeats's early poem The Isle of Statues and sought out his acquaintance. Yeats developed an obsessive infatuation with Gonne, and she was to have a significant effect on his poetry and his life ever after. Two years after, he proposed to Gonne, but was rejected. In 1896, he met Lady Gregory, and began an affair with Olivia Shakespeare, which ended one year later. Lady Gregory encouraged Yeats's nationalism and convinced him to continue focusing on writing drama. In 1899, Yeats again proposed to Gonne, and was again rejected. He proposed again in 1900, and again in 1901; in 1903, Maud Gonne married Irish nationalist John MacBride, and Yeats visited America on a lecture tour. Yeats spent the summer of 1917 with Maud Gonne, and proposed to Gonne's daughter, but was rejected. In September, he proposed to George Hyde-Lees, was accepted, and the two were married on the 20th of October.
