One of the eminent modernist poets is W. B Yeats, who composed much of his literary writings to the cause of Irish nationalism and had a major impact in the Celtic Revival Movement. Yeats supported the literary heritage of Ireland and ancient Irish legends. Mystic and occult ideas are similarly central features of his work; such as in "The Second Coming" is viewed as a predictive poem that predicts the close of the Christian period and the vicious birth of a new era. The poem's title makes reference to the Biblical reappearance of Christ. Other symbols in the poem are drawn from mythology, the occult, and Yeats's view of history as defined in his cryptic prose volume a Vision. Keywords: Yeats, “The Second Coming”, Modernist Poetry, Christianity & Mysticism.
