In width of scope, Yeats far exceeds
any of his contemporaries. He is the only poet since the 18th century who has
been a public man in his own country and the only poet since Milton who has been
a public man at a time when his country was involved in a struggle for political
liberty. This may not seem an important matter, but it is a question whether the
kind of life lived by poets for the last two hundred years or so has not been
one great reason for the drift of poetry away from the life of the community as
a whole, and the loss of touch with tradition. Once the life of contemplation
has been divorced from the life of action, or from real knowledge of men of
action, something is lost which it is difficult to define, but which leaves
poetry enfeebled and incomplete. Yeats responded with all his heart as a young
man to the reality an A. Yeats had a limited political viewpoint B. Yeats was convinced of the value of the Irish Rebellion C. modern poets must be men of inaction D. as compared with older poetry, present-day poetry is ineffectual

[单项选择]Yeats was beginning to use a vocabulary freshly minted from the treasury of Gaelic literature, and many of the shorter poems in The Countess Kathleen and Various Legends and Lyrics (1892) deal with a mythology Ireland had well nigh forgotten and England never known. For Arthur and his Round Table Yeats substituted the very different Conchubar and his Red Branch Warriors, and Finn and his Fenians. The Red Branch cycle of legends included Fergus, whom Ness had tricked out of his kingdom so that her son Conchubar could rule over Ulster in his stead, and in Fergus and the Druid Yeats makes him avid for dreaming wisdom. Fergus was the unwitting agent of the doom of the Sons of Usna, Naoise the lover of Deirdre and his brothers Ardan and Ainle, who had accompanied the lovers to Scotland when they fled from Conchubar’s wrath, for Deirdre was Conchubar’s intended bride. Fergus had persuaded them to return against the wishes of Deirdre and had been tricked out of acting as their safe conduct. H A. was deposed by Cuchulain B. was king of Ulster C. had unwittingly slain Usna D. married the Queen of Connaught
