T.S. Eliot's Bleistein Poems: Uses of Literary Allusion in Burbank with a Baedeker: Bleistein with a Cigar and Dirge

Coperta unu
International Scholars Publications, 2000 - 400 pagini
Deals with the issue of Eliot's treatment of the figure of the Jew in his poems. Uncovers hitherto unrecognized sources in the contemporary history from which the poems emerged, and highlights Eliot's concern with Dante's poetry, emphasizing the need to remember the "metaphysical" Eliot. Contends that the poems "Burbank with a Baedecker: Bleistein with a Cigar," "Mr. Eliot's Sunday Morning Service," "The Hippopotamus," "The Waste Land," and "The Hollow Men" form an organic sequence and provide an absurdist improvisation on Dante's Commedia.
