Yeats Annual is the leading international research-level journal devoted to the greatest twentieth-century poet in the English language. Its twelfth issue, That Accusing Eye: Yeats and His Irish Readers , is a special number devoted to one of the great realities of Yeats's writing, the Irish audience that he loved enough to scorn. This audience managed to wound him both by its attention and its indifference. As the eight essays by Irish critics show, it matters even more in the changing Ireland of today. A total of eighteen authors is represented, and seventeen new books are reviewed, including five new volumes in the Cornell Manuscripts Series.
