A hugely influential poet both during his time and after - William Butler Yeats also lived a very interesting life, as a proud Irish nationalist, occultist, and later in life, even senator. In this Bibliography episode, we discuss his life and career, and of course his writing and its significance. And then in Footnotes, we talk about the ways in which his work has influenced other writers, films and even music.
