OSCAR WILDE & WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS

 

May   2008; Revised July 2009

 

What follows is a sketchy attempt to bring together articles or books where Wilde shares the billing with W.B. Yeats.  This was created to mark the creation of The Calumet, a discussion forum set up with Yeats as the subject in May 2008.  This can be found at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/yeatsian/.  In October 2008 we added a list of Dissertations.  We hope as always to be able to expand this list.

DISSERTATIONS

 

.

In 1990 there was published in New York Anglo-Irish Literature: a bibliography of dissertations, 1873-1989, compiled by William T. O’Malley of the University of Rhode Island.  This was followed by a Supplement published on line at http://digitalcommons.uri.edu/libts_pubs/1, covering dissertations completed from 1989 to 2005.  This remarkable list (of several dozen pages and over two thousand entries) gives the name of the author, date of completion, title of dissertation, a keyword or word denoting the principal subject(s) if that does not appear in the title, and the university, in that order.  On the assumption that dissertation refers to Ph.D or D.Phil (or its equivalent) rather than Masters, I have extracted the following titles referring to Wilde and Yeats.

·         We will be very happy to publish synopses of any of these dissertations; and to learn of new ones.

[Two notices of caution: it is not disclosed how substantial is the engagement indicated by the keyword; and the Supplement is packed with typing errors – though given its scope it is only surprising that there are not more – and I may not have caught them all.  –Editor, THE OSCHOLARS.]
