Description
Yeats XIII features a special section, Approaches to Teaching Yeats. Nine top scholars (Jonathan Allison, George Bornstein, Ronald Bush, Elizabeth Butler Cullingford, Herbert J. Levine, Marjorie Perloff, Jahan Ramazani, J. P. Riquelme, and M. L. Rosenthal) contribute essays on how to use the poet in the classroom, examining Yeats in different contexts, from the question of authorial intention to Yeats and feminism to the poet's genres and style. Some of the pieces explore the teaching of particular poems, some suggest ways of working with the entire corpus. No teacher of Yeats will want to be without this section.
Other featured articles include Susan Bazargan on Yeats and colonialism and Margaret Mills Harper on Yeats's religion. Conrad A. Balliet provides a supplement to his W. B. Yeats: A Census of the Manuscripts, listing all manuscripts missing from the earlier work; David Greetham reviews recent volumes in the Cornell Yeats edition; and as always the volume includes a comprehensive Yeats bibliography (for 1993-94) and a compilation of dissertation abstracts (1994).

Description
Yeats XVII is the latest addition to the important annual that collects the best and most recent Yeats criticism. This volume includes essays by established and up-and-coming scholars and a bibliography of recent international scholarship on Yeats by K. P. S. Jochum. Special to this volume is a complete index of the articles and books reviewed in all seventeen issues. Featured original articles include: Yeats: Cast-offs, Non-starters and Gnomic Illegibilities, by David R. Clark, which transcribes some little-known manuscript poems found in Yeats's notebooks and collections; Our Lives with the Yeatses' Ghosts: The Writing and the Editing of the Automatic Script, by Barbara J. Frieling, Margaret Mills Harper, and Sandra L. Sprayberry, which balances literary criticism and biographical detail as it reevaluates the work done--by these authors and their contemporaries--on Yeats's compelling but enigmatic experiments with automatic writing; and The Collar-Bone of a Hare: On a Manuscript by W. B. Yeats, by Louis Houet, which reveals the historical and biographical milieu in which Yeats created this famous inscription.
