Recovering a lost literary movement that was the most consuming preoccupation of W. B. Yeats's literary life, Ronald Schuchard's book provides an historical, biographical, and critical reconstruction of the poet's attempt to restore an oral tradition by reviving the bardic arts of chanting and musical speech.
