關於這本電子書

Published in 1900, "The Shadowy Waters" is a poetic drama by the celebrated Irish poet W. B. Yeats. This mystical and symbolic play explores themes of love, destiny, and the supernatural, drawing inspiration from Irish mythology and folklore. Set in a mythical past, the narrative follows the journey of a mortal prince who falls in love with a supernatural woman, the Queen of the Faeries. As their love faces trials and tribulations, the play delves into profound questions about the nature of human desires, the conflict between the mortal and immortal worlds, and the pursuit of higher truths. Yeats weaves his distinctive poetic language into a dramatic form, infusing the play with rich imagery and spiritual themes that reflect his ongoing fascination with the esoteric and the transcendent. "The Shadowy Waters" stands as a captivating example of Yeats' ability to merge poetic expression with theatrical storytelling, offering readers and audiences an entrancing exploration of the liminal spaces between reality and the magical.
