T.S. Eliot – Criticism
This was the essay from this subject EN211. Since literary theory from Leavis onward made my brain hurt, I decided to latch onto Eliot and answer the question set about him.
I supplemented my book of Eliot’s prose with every article I could find that he wrote. I remember finding them in very old volumes of periodicals in the Central library. On one occasion I thought I had found something important and found the volume of the series, only to find the much sought after article from the 1930s neatly snipped out – the rotten swine. This obviously predated online searches.
I spent a lot of time reading and trying to understand and I suspect managed as reasonable argument.
I was pleased to get a 7 (out of 7) for the subject and ended my Arts degree on a high note with plans to continue English studies the next year.
