It is not my habit to use such unctuous phrases, unless I myself am experiencing doubt. I have made it clear that there is plenty of room for disagreement, and I have occasionally changed my mind on something. I am not sure why that is not enough....As for the Yeats, almost the only things I read regularly were written after he was forty, and since I have quoted various of them on threads you have been on, you should know that. I will consider your contradictions (may I add, uncouched<g>), but it would be helpful if you would give a couple of examples of poets of stature whom you consider to be in Yeats' debt. I can only think of one, perhaps: Dylan Thomas.....
