From reviews of The Cornell Yeats series:For students of Yeats the whole series is bound to become an essential reference source and a stimulus to important critical re-readings of Yeats's major works. In a wider context, the series will also provide an extraordinary and perhaps unique insight into the creative process of a great artist.—Irish Literary SupplementI consider the Cornell Yeats one of the most important scholarly projects of our time.—A. Walton Litz, Princeton University, coeditor of The Collected Poems of William Carols Williams and Personae: The Shorter Poems of Ezra PoundThe most ambitious of the many important projects in current studies of Yeats and perhaps of modern poetry generally.... The list of both general and series editors, as well as prospective preparers of individual volumes, reads like a Who's Who of Yeats textual studies in North America. Further, the project carries the blessing of Yeats's heirs and bespeaks an ongoing commitment from a major university press.... The series will inevitably engender critical studies based on a more solid footing than those of any other modern poet.... Its volumes will be consulted long after gyres of currently fashionable theory have run on.—Yeats Annual (1983)The four short works collected in this book were among the earliest plays to be authored collaboratively by W. B. Yeats and Lady Gregory. Written in the pivotal years during which the Irish Literary Theatre experiment of 1899–1901 began to evolve into what would become the Abbey Theatre, they show both writers engaging with questions central to the early Irish dramatic movement: How should Irishness be represented on the stage? To what extent should artists engage directly with Nationalist politics? And what role might literature play in the creation of a new Ireland? The manuscripts presented here chart the evolution of two plays published over Yeats's name: Cathleen ni Houlihan—the pair's most successful collaboration, and the work that confirmed Yeats's credentials as a Nationalist writer—and the peasant farce The Pot of Broth. This book also includes manuscript material for The Country of the Young and Heads or Harps, which the writers left unpublished and unproduced during their lifetimes.
