Notes:	This work explores how nine fascinating women inspired much of Yeats's poetry, shows how his perception of these women as Muses underlies his poetry. Includes bibliographical references (p. [235]-243) and index.
Summary:	This text explores how Yeats perceived the women to and about whom he wrote some of his greatest poetry in terms akin to the Greek notion that a poet is inspired and possessed by the feminine voices of the Muses. Newly available letters and manuscripts are used to examine the creative process and interpret the poems.
