Beskrivning
The culmination of a trilogy that began with T.S. Eliot, Lancelot Andrewes, and the Word, and continued with T.S. Eliot: The Poet as Christian, this gracefully executed new book brings to a triumphant conclusion the unique effort to pinpoint and identify the Christian characteristics of Eliot's poetic art. The book offers a close but companionable reading of each of the complex poems that make up Four Quartets, the essay-poem that is Eliot's masterwork. Focusing on the range of speaking voices dramatized, Atkins reveals for the first time the Incarnational form that governs the work's 'purposive movement' toward purification and fulfilment of points of view that were represented earlier in the poems.

Recensioner i media

"Atkins' signature prose plays well for this project: a personal voice which challenges the reader to slow down and think carefully because of the necessary complexity of the ideas expressed. The scholarship is sound, the conversational tone inviting. The book can add to work on Eliot by its combination of the scholarly and conversational approaches, which give it gravitas while inviting the reader to enjoy and respond to the work, not merely gain intellectual understanding." - Beth Impson, Professor of English, Bryan College, USA
