Overview

International Yeats Studies is an open access, peer-reviewed publication of The International Yeats Society, which was founded in 2015 to promote the study of W. B. Yeats in a global context. The journal features original scholarship of the highest quality from Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Africa, as well as book and performance reviews. This issue is a comprehensive, descriptive, and analytical study of the five composition notebooks that Yeats acquired in Italy and used to write many important works in verse and prose between March 1927 and April 1931, including lyrics for his Crazy Jane sequence, major poems such as ""Coole Park 1929"" and ""Byzantium,"" and draft materials for A Vision and two of his supernatural plays, The Words upon the Window-Pane and The Resurrection. The Rapallo Notebooks bring together a unique record of Yeats's creative processes at a key period of his artistic and personal life. Authors Mann and Chapman have selected nearly forty facsimiles from these notebooks, and they present numerous other photographic and visual aids to assist narration, including transcriptions, charts, and tabular summaries of the notebooks' construction and physical state following conservation efforts undertaken for the National Library of Ireland in 2005.
