"The late Professor Ellmann's brief biography of Yeats does not quite merit the appellation "definitive"--the "definitive" biographer of this most complex poet, playwright, politician, lover, father, occultist, true believer and skeptic, is Roy Foster. Ellmann's book focuses primarily upon 'Yeats the Poet', his dictum "myself I must remake", his poetic processes and evolution, and Ellmann thoroughly understands and explains them as no other literary critic does.
Ellmann's own style makes this particular book extraordinarily accessible to the lay reader, and for that reason alone it will always remain the "classic" biography of W.B. Yeats. No other 20th-century literary critic understood the major Irish modernists--Wilde, Yeats, Joyce, and Beckett--as well as Richard Ellmann. So if you are interested the the writers who verily created both "Modernism" and "Post-Modernism", you should read this book, and read it as a prelude to Ellman's other works, for "Yeats: The Man and The Masks" intended to introduce the world to the literary explosion that occurred in Ireland in the late 19th century. And something extraordinary did indeed happen here in Ireland because of W.B. Yeats"
"Richard Ellmann, talented biographer, has added a new dimension to his literary accomplishments. In Yeats," the Man and the Masks," Ellmann has proceeded to dicipher and analyze much of the poetry and prose of Yeats. To the reader of average interest, I would consider this book of insightful analyses to be much too detailed to really entertain. However to serious students of poetry in general, and Keats in particular, it would be a treasure trove of information. Therefore in my rating I will give it a good for students of the subject ! However for the main stream reader, it would definitely fail to entertain, as it is such a laborious and erudite undertaking !"
