520 _a"Four Years" by W. B. Yeats is an autobiographical account written in the late 19th century. The narrative focuses on the formative years of Yeats's life, particularly from 1887 to 1891, capturing his experiences and interactions with notable figures in art and literature during a period of personal and artistic development. The opening of "Four Years" introduces readers to the young Yeats as he reflects on his family's move from Dublin to Bedford Park, a quiet area in London, where he becomes immersed in the artistic atmosphere influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite movement. He recalls the contrasting feelings of nostalgia for his childhood, artistic aspirations, and a sense of disillusionment with the changes in society and art. The early chapters explore his relationships with various artists and intellectuals, including W. E. Henley and Oscar Wilde, providing insight into Yeats's evolving identity as a poet and thinker amidst the vibrant yet tumultuous cultural landscape of the time.
