Abstract

The world in recent years have witnessed undoubtedly the most brutal, tyrannical, unmerciful events of cultural identity, ethnicity, religion, policy and other factors which make people different from each other. Surely, it is not a new movement or concept, not the first and may not be the last to oppress, neglect, forget and isolate the others who do not think like us. History of humanity is full of these unpleasant samples. Nearly, in every part of life people face such kind of unforgettable moments. Some fields especially literature is shaped on the basis of minorities who strive for telling their humanly feelings and ideas. Hence, great writers, playwrights, poets are those who have tried to cry the innocent sounds of their nation through their works. One of the great figures who aimed to defend the rights of his nation and regain their identity is the arch poet of English literature, William Butler Yeats. In this study, it is aimed to analyse the identity problem of the Irish in one of his great poems Wanderings of Oisin read by Nathan and presented in YouTube through paratextual approach by Gérard Genette.
