description Among W.B. Yeats's dramatic ancestors were Greeks, Shakespeare, and August Strindberg. Strindberg's The Ghost Sonata represents the interaction of the two worlds of the dead and the living, which is the very theme of many of Yeats's plays. Their shared concerns with the spiritual can be explained from the influence they both received from Emanuel Swedenborg, but Yeats's encounter with Japanese Noh drama made him divert from Strindberg. The same theme of presenting the unseen seeable on the stage in a symbolic-realistic manner was later attempted by Ingmar Bergman, another Swedish film and stage director.
