The simultaneous publication of the poet William Buttler Yeats's "Collected Poems," and reissuing of his "A Vision," gives people nothing significantly new, yet remind them of everything in his work that remains marvelously the same. One first thought is the astounding relevance of his work to critical issues of twentieth-century consciousness, astounding partly because the more one reads Yeats the more absorbed and fascinated one becomes by the idiosyncrasies of his technical achievement, his symbols, his many-sided intellectual biography and his system of images.
