摘要

This dissertation focuses on the changing poetic images of women Yeats constructed in his work to mirror his shifting perception of the needs of the Irish Republic over the course of his career. Successive alterations of the "Yeatsian" woman parallel the poet's evolving attitude toward political and social transformations occurring in the country. This dissertation examines how Yeats adjusts his female persona in accordance with the varying politics of the Republic, and employs her as a vehicle for expressing his personal beliefs regarding Ireland's attempt to gain power and independence via his assumption that poetry can change politics. Under the guise of four female images recurring through sequential stages of Yeats's career, this study demonstrates how each persona mirrors the poet's personal response to the changing political climate.;The first female to be considered is the character of the Goddess/Enchantress introduced during Yeats's Romantic period, 1889--1903. During these relatively peaceful years preceding the Rebellion and Civil War, Yeats associated Ireland with beauty, nature and courtly love. The second female image is the Warrior which emerged during Yeats's Nationalist period, 1903--1923. Yeats responded to the strife and turmoil taking place in Ireland by replacing the Romantic Enchantress with a challenging femme fatale more suited to understanding the needs of the embattled country. The final poetic images occur during the Modernist/post Rebellion era, 1923--1939. During this time Yeats was presented with the double challenge of creating a character that would help the country recover from war as he encouraged gender equality. He responded by forming two distinct female figures: the Mother, who provides the nurturing Ireland required after the Rebellion; and the independent female interested in protecting her own rights. Yeats's response to the changing climate of Irish politics was answered through his use of poetry as a way to combat chauvinism allowing both country and women to possess agency and control.
