A. Norman Jeffares Poradie kníh (chronologicky)
Alexander Norman Jeffares bol írsky literárny vedec, ktorý sa preslávil svojimi hlbokými analýzami a kritikou modernej írskej literatúry. Jeho práca sa zameriavala na pochopenie a zhodnotenie kľúčových írskych autorov a ich prínosu pre svetovú literatúru. Jeffaresov akademický prínos spočíval v jeho schopnosti prepojiť literárne texty s ich širším kultúrnym a historickým kontextom, čím čitateľom ponúkol komplexnejší pohľad na írske literárne dedičstvo. Jeho rozsiahle znalosti a analytické schopnosti z neho robia rešpektovanú postavu v oblasti literárnej vedy.
Half a century ago, Norman Jeffares wrote the definitive biography of W.B. Yeats, which was subsequently published in a revised edition in 1990 to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the poet's death. The present volume, a re-issue of the 1990 edition with a new introduction and bibliography, is an account of Yeats's life and work, together with a fascinating collection of letters, photographs and poetry.
