الملخص

W. B. Yeats (1865-1939) wrote many plays which dealt with the statue of the poet in his community or society and his relation with the whole world around him and how he reacted towards some of the critical issues in Ireland particularly. He believed in the power of words and how people and their countries would change positively to liberate themselves and their societies. Yeats’s poet could be a visionary, an activist, a dreamer and a wonderer. The Player Queen was one of plays which exposed the poet’s crisis and his vulnerability. He was frustrated by both his beloved and his community. The problem: The recent paper explores the dilemma of a poet in a hostile society. It discusses how he will be deprived of his right to highlight and declare his valued ideas and actions as a poet. Hypothesis: The poet has a noble role. He\she could save the art, the beauty and its dignity. Findings: Septimus, the hero of the play takes the road which wasn’t taken by anyone. At last he picks up the hat of art and saves it from bad artists and the corrupted mob. Comparing his story with Noah' s at the Deluge. His final reconciliation is achieved particularly when he rejects the social and political corruption. Results The poet is loyal to the image of the Unicorn instead of his wife's aggressive beauty. His spiritual strength is inspired by his own vivid image of beauty, love and poetic purity. Septimus 's ark of salvation is inside and he insists to be in.
