(Passerino May 13, 2019)
"The Celtic Twilight", published in 1893, brings tales and retellings of Irish folklore. Considering the 19th-century context and the political
conflicts to leave behind centuries of English domination, Yeats’s book plays an important role in the Irish Revival, a movement that sought to reawaken Irish culture and memory, aiming at establishing a legitimate national identity.
