In W. B. Yeats and the Anti~Democratic Tradition, Dr. Grattan Freyer sees the poet as engaged in a long dialogue with Irish history ~ first inspiring nationalists to action, then discovering themes for his poetry in the intellectual excitement and physical turbulence that led to Irish independence. The book also examines Yeats's outlook as representative of an alternative tradition to twentieth~century materialism, industrialism and democracy. In Ireland this tradition stemmed from Bishop Berkeley and Jonathan Swift, and later included John Mitchel and Charles Stewart Parnell. In England it embraced William Morris and John Ruskin, and in Europe the philosophers Nietzsche and Gentile as well as the fascist dictators. W. B. Yeats and the Anti~Democratic Tradition shows how the poet's political ideas ran counter to the prevailing trends of western populism. For a brief period Yeats believed that the early Irish Free State, of which he was a senator, might move in the direction he desired. Then he turned his attention to the wider European background and to the turmoil of the 1930s. He finally despaired of all contemporary politics, and bequeathed his thoughts to posterity in prose and verse. The book probes the matter of Yeats's fascist sympathies in depth, neither condemning nor excusing the poet but offering instead a fresh and stimulating survey of his thinking.
