For Yeats the Sacred Book represented the embodiment of the absolute unity of form and content, of image and ideal. During the 1890's, the idea of such a book had shaped both his aesthetic philosophy and his own writing; why, then, should Yeats have resurrected this symbol as part of a public framework and reference to A Vision (1925)? What can we learn about Yeats's earlier conception of the Sacred Book that may shed light upon the aesthetic contexts within which he developed A Vision? If the following study is a work of literary criticism, its subject is a text that could not be written, and the influence of this text upon the writing of W. B. Yeats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christoph K.
