Leah Christman posted a new page, on the site Maud Gonne in Yeats 5 years, 4 months ago
Great question! Within the parent pages (Early, Transitional/Middle, and Late), we incorporated mini podcast-style interviews that will transfer you to a separate tab with a public-access Google Audio mp3 file. In […]

Leah Christman posted a new page, on the site Maud Gonne in Yeats 5 years, 4 months ago
YES! One of the main points of this site is to democratize Yeats. We wanted to make it so that you can look at outside sources and our own (amateur) commentary, and actually respond in the comments yourselves. […]

This site is meant to be user-friendly to novices and Yeats scholars alike! We sought to provide initial commentary on almost every line of every poem, either from ourselves or an expert in Yeats. Each individual […]

We wanted to trace a theme that was constant throughout Yeats’ life so that we could break up the poems into three stages: early, transitional/middle, and late. Of course, the most obvious thread throughout Y […]

Beautiful lofty things: O’Leary’s noble head;
My father upon the Abbey stage, before him a raging crowd: ‘This Land of Saints,’ and then as the applau […] -

Here at right of the entrance this bronze head,
Human, superhuman, a bird’s round eye,
Everything else withered and mummy-dead.
What great tomb-haunter sweeps the distant sky

As a big fan of “close reading,” digging into the meat of words on a page, the idea of turning those words into numerical data through things like Voyant Tools doesn’t really float my boat.

Leah Christman edited the blog post Some Marginal Thoughts on Annotation (Leah Christman) in the group Digital Humanities: 6 years, 2 months ago
