In “Burnt Norton,” the poetic speaker enters a rose garden, a space of envisioned timeless illumination. This experience sets in motion a spiritual quest, which will confer unity upon Four Quartets. For the poet himself, it inaugurates a creative phase (mid-1930s to late-1950s) that strengthens his sense of faith and community. Eliot, increasingly interested in playwriting, completed his meditative masterpiece (Four Quartets) while undertaking his ambitious project to revive verse drama. Devotion to drama reflects Eliot’s stronger social awareness, leading him to adopt popular forms: the pageant (The Rock), drawing-room comedy (The Cocktail Party, The Confidential Clerk, and The Elder Statesman), and children’s literature (Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats). As a critic, he widened his scope to write about social issues (The Idea of a Christian Society, Notes Towards a Definition of Culture). These aspects of Eliot’s career are influenced by concrete historical and biographical circumstances such as the impact of war and his ongoing relationship with Emily Hale, who played a decisive role as his muse, guide, and mentor in his newfound passion for the stage. Reading T. S. Eliot: The Rose Garden and After (1930s-1950s) presents original work by numerous scholars addressing these facets of Eliot’s writing.

Offering essays from some of the leading academic writers and younger scholars in the field of American studies from both the United States and Europe, this volume constitutes a rich and varied reconsideration of Modernist American poetry. Its contributions fall into two general categories: new and original discussions of many of the principal figures of the movement (Frost, Pound, Eliot, Williams, Cummings and Stevens) and reflections on the phenomenon of Modernism within a broader cultural context (the influence of Haiku, parallels and connections with Surrealism, responses to the Modernist accomplishment by later American poets). Because of its mixture of European and American perspectives, Modernism Revisited will be of vital interest to students and scholars of American literature and Modernism in general and of twentieth-century comparative literature and art.
