The 28 Phases of the Moon: Exploring Yeats' Vision
Follow us on a journey along the path of the human soul charted by Yeats in his book A Vision.
Neil Mann delivers a workshop on applying the system devised by WB and George Yeats to demonstrate the intended function of A Vision and provide insight into the thoughts and beliefs of one of Ireland's most celebrated writers.
Discover the significance of the Moon in Yeats' wider body of work, the roles of Mask and Will in Yeats' Vision as well as what Yeats means in adopting the title of The Daimonic Man and how he came to believe he was bound to stand apart from the rest of the society in which he lived.
Please note, the room in which this event will take place is not wheelchair accessible.
An established voice in the field of WB Yeats' more mystical works, Neil Mann is the author of A Reader's Guide to A Vision, the editor of WB Yeats's a Vision: Explications and Contexts and a contributor to the National Library of Ireland's WB Yeats: His Life and Works exhibition.
As part of his work exploring the text of A Vision Neil Mann has created and maintained both a website and a blog to act as resources for scholars engaging with the esoteric side of WB Yeats: yeatsvision.com and yeatsvision.blogspot.com.
