Welcome

W. B. Yeats is the pre-eminent Irish poet. The International Yeats Society is an academic organisation which links national and other Yeats societies around the world. It aims to allow a wide range of academic researchers to share and present their work, in progress as well as in finished form; make that work widely and easily available; facilitate communication amongst scholars, teachers, and postgraduate students; foster productive teams of researchers, especially across national borders; advance awareness of Yeats studies in wider academic and public communities; and promote the study of Yeats as well as Irish literature and culture, in a global context.

The International Yeats Society also oversees International Yeats Studies, an open-access journal published by Clemson University Press. A peer-reviewed journal, the JIYS welcomes original scholarly articles on Yeats and Yeats-related topics. For more information and access to the journal’s publications, click the link below.
