Palgrave Macmillan, 2004

Index

Note: Page references given as arabic numerals in roman typeface all refer to writing by William Butler Yeats himself. Those in boldtype indicate the full printing of an item in Mythologies. Page references given as arabic numerals in italic typeface indicate editorialcomment, in the Explanatory and Textual Notes, and Appendix 6.Page and note (or line of poem) numbers are given as, e.g., for page 281, 281.4. References extending to a second page within thesame note appear as, e.g., 271-2.1.Where no note number is given in the index, the reference is to the introduction to the notes on that page, or, if the index entry is atitle of an item in this volume, the reference is to the whole section of notes referring to that item. Where the note number is in brackets,as, 280(.4), the reference is on the page cited, but the note begins, and its number is given, on a previous page. Where two notes withthe same number appear on a page, they are differentiated thus — 445.1.i; 445.1.ii.Footnotes in the Editors’ Introduction and in the text of Mythologies are indicated by the page number followed by .n and note numberif any, e.g. xxiv.n5 or 12n. References to the notes are given only when there is no reference in the text on that page.Works by WBY are listed under their titles; when titles are separately listed in small caps, the entry refers to volume unit in one ormore of WBY’s books. All other works of art or literature are listed under the writers’ names, if known. Short forms of book titlesmay be used.Abbreviations used in the index are: AG for Augusta, Lady Gregory; AE for George William Russell; GY for George Yeats, WBY’swife; JBY for John Butler Yeats, WBY’s father; MG for Maud Gonne; GD for the Order of the Golden Dawn; WBY for WilliamButler Yeats.
