Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Countess Cathleen (1892) is a verse drama by W.B. Yeats. Dedicated to Maud Gonne, an actress and revolutionary whom Yeats unsuccessfully courted for years, The Countess Cathleen underwent several editions before being performed in its final version at Dublin’s Abbey Theatre in 1911. Based on an Irish legend, the play, set during a period of intense famine, follows a land-owning Countess who decides to sacrifice her wealth and property in order to save the starving Irish people. As dusk gathers, a family prepares for dinner in their rural home. The fire is lit, and Shemus, the father, has returned home from a day of hunting with nothing to show for it. As they scrounge what they can to make themselves a meal, the Countess Cathleen arrives to ask them for directions. Touched by their suffering, the Countess returns home and begins to wonder what she can do to alleviate their difficult circumstances. Impatient, Shemus yells to the darkening woods to welcome whatever being, angel or devil, that would bring them money or something to eat. When two merchants arrive offering him gold for his services, it appears that the Countess, despite her good intentions, may already be too late. The Countess Cathleen is a drama written in blank verse that explores themes of poverty, faith, and Irish independence. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of W.B. Yeats’s The Countess Cathleen is a classic of Irish literature reimagined for modern readers.

Download or read book The Countess Cathleen written by W. B. Yeats and published by Strelbytskyy Multimedia Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Countess Cathleen" is a dramatic play written by W. B. Yeats that explores themes of sacrifice, morality, and spirituality. Set against the backdrop of a famine-stricken Ireland, the play follows the moral dilemma faced by the titular character, Countess Cathleen, as she seeks to save her starving community. In an act of selflessness, Cathleen makes a pact with the devil to provide relief for her people, a decision that challenges her own soul and raises questions about the nature of good and evil. Yeats weaves together elements of Irish folklore, Christian symbolism, and social commentary to create a thought-provoking narrative that delves into the complexities of human choices, societal ethics, and the consequences of desperation. The play serves as both a reflection on the historical struggles of Ireland and a timeless exploration of the human condition in the face of adversity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Butler Yeats was born near Dublin in 1865, and was encouraged from a young age to pursue a life in the arts. He attended art school for a short while, but soon found that his talents and interest lay in poetry rather than painting. His father's love of reading aloud exposed Yeats early on to William Shakespeare, the Romantic poets and the pre-Raphaelites, and developed an interest in Irish myths and folklore. As a result, he became an instrumental figure in the "Irish Literary Revival" of the 20th Century that redefined Irish writing. In 1899 Yeats helped found the Irish National Theatre Society, which later became the famous Abbey Theatre of Dublin. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1923, and received honorary degrees from Queen's University (Belfast), Trinity College (Dublin), and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. In this volume we find one of Yeats' lesser-known works, "The Player Queen."
