    Making Their Mark 17 A CELEBRATION OF GREAT WOMEN ARTISTS Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats, in a 1901 portrait by Photograph of Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats (left) and Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats (right). Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats, in an 1887 Jack Butler Yeats. National Gallery of Ireland. portrait by Jack Butler Yeats. Sisters Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats (1866-1949, above, left) and Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats (1868-1940, above, right) were pivotal figures in the advancement of the Arts and Crafts style in Ireland. Founded in England by the British designer William Morris, the Arts and Crafts Movement advocated traditional, handcrafted objects as a rebellion against soulless factory-made furnishings. The Yeats sisters were from a preeminent Irish family--their father John and brother Jack were noted painters, and their other brother was the renowned poet William Butler Yeats. Born in Enniscrone, County Sligo, Ireland, Lily Yeats was a frequent visitor to William Morris when her family moved to London in the 1870s; she would learn embroidery from his daughter, May Morris. Younger sister Lolly Yeats, also in the Morris circle, was more interested in painting and printing; by the end of the century she had written and illustrated four instructional books on sketching directly with a brush. Upon returning to Ireland, both sisters would co-found the Dun Emer Guild, a Arts and Crafts group in Dublin managed and staffed entirely by women, with the textile designer Evelyn Gleeson (1855-1944). Guilds, as opposed to factories, were a return to the Medieval and Renaissance guilds that once served as the primary centers of art production.

Yeats’s White Vellum Notebook, 1930–1933 Wayne K. Chapman n 1985, Michael Yeats made a significant deposit of manuscript materials in the National Library of Ireland, neither the first nor last act of generosity on behalf of the W. B. Yeats Estate. Prior to that act, those materials had been Iexamined and inventoried for him by a cadre of Yeats scholars, who collectively produced a typescript entitled “A Partial List of Manuscripts in the Collection of Senator Michael B. Yeats,” an aid to sustain the editorial work that has domi- nated Yeats studies for more than two generations already. Better known as the “MBY List,” this device consisted of 1,105 core items, many auxiliary ones, and an index, the whole of which essentially mirrored the Estate’s 1985 gift to the NLI and which accompanied the manuscripts—that is, all but 130 items that were crossed off the list.1 Half of these were batches of letters that Yeats and Lady Gregory had written to each other between 1897 and 1932.

  • Collection List A19
    Leabharlann Náisiúnta na hÉireann National Library of Ireland Collection List 19 Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson Papers (MS 13,698) (Accession 2501) Partial calendar with brief description of letters sent by Augustine Henry and Evelyn Gleeson between 1879 and 1928. Letters are arranged according to year and date. 1 Introduction Henry, Augustine (1857–1930), botanical collector and dendrologist, was born on 2 July 1857 in Dundee, the first of six children of Bernard Henry (c.1825–1891) and Mary MacNamee. His father, at one time a gold-prospector in California and Australia, was a native of the townland of Tyanee on the west bank of the River Bann in co. Londonderry. Soon after Austin (as Augustine was called within his family) was born, the family moved to Cookstown, co. Tyrone, where his father was in business as a flax dealer and owned a grocery shop. Henry was educated at Cookstown Academy and in Queen's College, Galway. He studied natural sciences and philosophy, graduating with a first-class bachelor of arts degree and a gold medal in 1877. Henry then studied medicine at Queen's College, Belfast, where he obtained his master of arts degree in 1878. For a year he was in the London Hospital, and during a visit to Belfast in 1879, at the suggestion of one of his professors, he applied for a medical post in the Chinese imperial maritime customs service. Henry completed his medical studies as rapidly as he could, became a licentiate from the Royal College of Physicians in Edinburgh, passed the Chinese customs service examinations (for which he required a working knowledge of Chinese) and and left for China in the summer of 1881.

' Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, October 1992 Acknowledgments To my supervisors, Dr. Bernard McGuirk (Hispanic Studies and Critical Theory) and Dr. David Murray (American Studies and Head of Postgraduate School of Critical Theory), lowe a great debt of gratitude for their enthusiasm for this proj ect. Their intellectual and practical support was priceless, and their cooperation with each other and with me never failed as a model of supervisorial expertise. All PhD candidates ought to be blessed with such supervision. I also wish to thank Dr. Douglas Tallack (American Studies and former Head of the School of Cri tical Theory) for his encouragement both intellectual and administrative towards the successful completion of this project. To the PhD students and to the supervisorial staff who attended work-in-progress seminars in the School of Critical Theory, and who offered so many helpful comments, suggestions, and opinions, I also give thanks. The staff of the Hallward Library must not go unmentioned, for their fine and courteous assistance throughout these four years. Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my epipsyche and muse, Hala Darwish, whose inspirational presence in my heart was, it may be said, the magic within these evasions, these wanderings . Until one day I met a star that burned Bright in the heart of my heavenly breast, And then I knew why I was who I was, And why my soul would be forever lost In the folds of her voice raging in my veins SJS, August 1992 ABSTRACT This thesis begins by showing how a strong and subtle challenge to poetry and theories of poetry has been recently argued by writers like Paul de Man and J.
