B. Yeats, drawing on extensive archival research to offer revelatory new readings of the poet. The book traces Yeats's literary and critical engagement with Celtic Revival statuary, public monuments in Dublin, the coin designs of the Irish Free State, abstract sculpture by the Vorticists and modernists, and a variety of carvings, decorative sculptures, and \u003cem\u003eobjets d'art\u003c\/em\u003e. By charting Yeats's early art school education in Dublin, his attempts to raise funds for public monuments in the city, and to secure commissions for his favourite sculptors, the book documents a lifelong interest in the plastic arts. New and original readings of Yeats's poetry, drama, and prose criticism emerge from this concertedly inter-arts and interdisciplinary study.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJack Quin, \u003cem\u003eBritish Academy Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of English Literature, University of Birmingham\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJack Quin is a British Academy postdoctoral fellow in the Department of English Literature at the University of Birmingham.
