T.S.Eliot and Mysticism: The Secret History of "Four Quartets" Book

The story of the composition of "Four Quartets", in relation to mysticism, constitutes an interesting chapter in modern literary history. T.S.

The primary concern of this study is not with the sources as such, nor with an area somewhere behind the work, but rather with that point in "Four Quartets" where Eliot's own mystical attitude and his poetry unite and intersect.Read More
