Description

Presenting work from scholars of various ranks and locations-including Canada, Romania, Taiwan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, the UK, and the USA-this volume offers critical perspectives on what is often considered the most important poem of literary modernism: T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land. The essays explore such topics as Eliot's use of sources, his poem's form, his influences, and his alleged misogyny. Building off contemporary work on Eliot and his poem, these essays illustrate the continued importance of The Waste Land in our understanding of the last century. This book should be of interest to students and scholars of modernism and modernist poetry
