Beskrivning

Widely regarded as one of the most important and influential poets of the twentieth century, T. S. Eliot was also extremely prolific. T. S. Eliot: The Contemporary Reviews is a testament to both these aspects of Eliot's work. In it, Jewel Spears Brooker presents the most comprehensive gathering of newspaper and magazine reviews of Eliot's work ever assembled. It includes reviews from both American and British journals. Brooker expands on the major themes of the reviews and shows how the reviews themselves influenced not only Eliot, but also literary history in the twentieth century.

'Free of theoretical jargon, the contemporary journal reviews offer vigorous - often partisan, sometimes prescient - assessments. The inescapable diversity of viewpoints illuminates the capacity of Eliot's slender volumes both to shock and satisfy the age in which he lived.' The Times Literary Supplement
