I studied Yeats' poems at university and liked most of them, not all them. I still read what I think are his best poems, like 'Easter 1916'. Yeats is very much an Irish poet, but also English in many ways.

I studied Yeats at university. Some of his poems endure, while others do not, in my opinion.
