Book Synopsis T. S. Eliot and the Cultural Divide by : David E. Chinitz
Download or read book T. S. Eliot and the Cultural Divide written by David E. Chinitz and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2005-12 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modernist poet T. S. Eliot has been applauded and denounced for decades as a staunch champion of high art and an implacable opponent of popular culture. But Eliot's elitism was never what it seemed. T. S. Eliot and the Cultural Divide refurbishes this great writer for the twenty-first century, presenting him as the complex figure he was, an artist attentive not only to literature but to detective fiction, vaudeville theater, jazz, and the songs of Tin Pan Alley. David Chinitz argues that Eliot was productively engaged with popular culture in some form at every stage of his career, and that his response to it, as expressed in his poetry, plays, and essays, was ambivalent rather than hostile. He shows that American jazz, for example, was a major influence on Eliot's poetry during its maturation. He discusses Eliot's surprisingly persistent interest in popular culture both in such famous works as The Waste Land and in such lesser-known pieces as Sweeney Agonistes. And he traces Eliot's long, quixotic struggle to close the widening gap between high art and popular culture through a new type of public art: contemporary popular verse drama. What results is a work that will persuade adherents and detractors alike to return to Eliot and find in him a writer who liked a good show, a good thriller, and a good tune, as well as a "great" poem.

Book Synopsis T. S. Eliot by : James E. Miller Jr.
Download or read book T. S. Eliot written by James E. Miller Jr. and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2008-03-17 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Late in his life T. S. Eliot, when asked if his poetry belonged in the tradition of American literature, replied: “I’d say that my poetry has obviously more in common with my distinguished contemporaries in America than with anything written in my generation in England. That I’m sure of. . . . In its sources, in its emotional springs, it comes from America.” In T. S. Eliot: The Making of an American Poet, James Miller offers the first sustained account of Eliot’s early years, showing that the emotional springs of his poetry did indeed come from America. Miller challenges long-held assumptions about Eliot’s poetry and his life. Eliot himself always maintained that his poems were not based on personal experience, and thus should not be read as personal poems. But Miller convincingly combines a reading of the early work with careful analysis of surviving early correspondence, accounts from Eliot’s friends and acquaintances, and new scholarship that delves into Eliot’s Harvard years. Ultimately, Miller demonstrates that Eliot’s poetry is filled with reflections of his personal experiences: his relationships with family, friends, and wives; his sexuality; his intellectual and social development; his influences. Publication of T. S. Eliot: The Making of an American Poet marks a milestone in Eliot scholarship. At last we have a balanced portrait of the poet and the man, one that takes seriously his American roots. In the process, we gain a fuller appreciation for some of the best-loved poetry of the twentieth century.

Download or read book T. S. Eliot written by Bernard Bergonzi and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a general introduction to Eliot's life and work, Professor Bergonzi's book could not be bettered. He is a sane and independent critic, and although he cannot entirely avoid the well-worn quotation, he has drawn freely on the less familiar source of Eliot's early journalism to illustrate his points. Perhaps it is in these quotations and the use he makes of them in composing his argument that the permanent value of his book lies. And although there are not enough source-references, he does set right some common misconceptions- as, for instance, the origin of the 'drunken helots' comparison. When it comes to the criticism of separate poems, one regrets the lack of space for development. Surely there was no need for yet another summary of the well-known facts of the poet's life, and although Mr. Bergonzi says in his Preface that this biographical element is 'no more than a framework, or skeleton', it makes a cramped framework, with only 192 pages in which to cover the whole life and work, poetry and prose. In our present state of surfeit, admirable as Mr. Bergonzi's comments are (especially on Pound, on 'Portrait of a Lady', and 'Ash Wednesday'), one looks for something more detailed, and the ten pages allotted to the 'Quartets' hardly make out a case for Mr. Bergonzi's minority view-expressed in the curious phrase 'the whole work seems to me to be some- what less than the sum of its parts'. -- from https://www.jstor.org (Sep. 20, 2017).
