In The Seven Woods: Being Poems Chiefly of the Irish Heroic Age by W. B. Yeats
"In The Seven Woods: Being Poems Chiefly of the Irish Heroic Age" by W. B. Yeats is a poetry collection published in 1903. This volume marks Yeats's shift from Romantic ideals and pre-Raphaelite imagery toward a spare, anti-romantic style. Drawing on Irish heroic legends, the collection includes poems inspired by walks through the Seven Woods before a great wind transformed the landscape. The volume also features "Adam's Curse," which became its most
popular and frequently anthologized piece, and concludes with the play "On Baile's Strand." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
