S. Eliot, he could only marvel at his strange good fortune. A young and aspiring American poet, he had earlier been an editor of Harvard University’s cele- brated literary magazine, the Advocate—as Eliot had once been—and more recently won a fellowship to Oxford—as Eliot had done, too, long ago, in 1914. Now he was going to meet the great man himself, the poet of his age, the man awarded the Nobel prize for literature in 1948. Hall was frankly terrified. His appointment was for three in the afternoon, but he turned up an hour early at the oªce of Eliot’s employer, Faber and Faber, at 24 Russell Square, then decided to kill time by admiring the sur- rounding buildings. Finally, at three, he was duly escorted to Eliot’s small oªce and greeted by Eliot himself, a person as diªdent and distant as re- port had portrayed him. Their conversation went poorly. “I was so convinced of the monumentality of this moment—‘I will be speaking of this, ages hence’—that I weighed every word as if my great-grandchildren were lis- tening in, and I feared to let them down by speaking idiomatically, or by seeing the humor in anything.” Eliot commented on some of Hall’s poems, the hour passed swiftly, and by four it was time for Hall to leave. He leapt to his feet, sputtered ponderous thanks, and awaited Eliot’s farewell: 1 2 introduction Then Eliot appeared to search for the right phrase with which to send me o¤. He looked me in the eyes, and set o¤ into a slow, meandering sentence. “Let me see,” said T. S. Eliot, “forty years ago I went from Harvard to Oxford. Now you are going from Harvard to Oxford. What advice can I give you?” He paused delicately, shrewdly, while I waited with greed for the words which I would repeat for the rest of my life, the advice from elder to younger, setting me on the road of emulation. When he had ticked o¤ the comedian’s exact milliseconds of pause, he said, “Have you any long underwear?” I told him that I had not, and paused to buy some on my dazzled walk back to the hotel. I suppose it was six months before I woke up enough to laugh.1 The reader who comes to Eliot’s masterpiece for the first time faces much the same dilemma as Hall did. The poem is preceded by its reputa- tion, endowed with authority so monumental that a reader is tempted to overlook the poem itself, to slight its grisly comedy or miss its mordant and ferocious wit, its dazzling series of surprises, its sheer wildness and irredeemable opacity. While Eliot’s status as an international celebrity has plainly waned since his death in 1965—what other poet could give a lec- ture in a basketball arena holding fourteen thousand spectators, as Eliot did in 1956?—his most important poem still retains its lacerating power to startle and disturb. eliot’s career before the waste land Thomas Stearns Eliot was born in St. Louis, Missouri, on 26 September 1888, the last of six children. He had four sisters, the oldest of whom was nineteen years his senior, and one brother, Henry, who was nine years older. His mother and father were already in their forties by the time Eliot was born. His father, Henry Ware Eliot, was a successful businessman and president of the Hydraulic-Press Brick Company. But Eliot seems never to have been very close to him. Instead it was to his mother, Char- lotte, that Eliot was drawn. Proud of her intelligence, she had not been able to attend university and instead had earned her living as a teacher until she met her husband. She had also written poetry. Her thwarted am- bitions were transferred to her son, who was nurtured to become a scholar, introduction 3 perhaps even a poet. From what little can be discerned, Eliot was a shy and bookish boy, one who felt somewhat out of place wherever he was. His family maintained a strong sense of its origins in New England—his grandfather had moved from there to St. Louis in 1834—a sense which made him feel out of place in the South. But he was no less aware of his Missouri drawl when the family took its annual vacation in Gloucester, Massachusetts.2 He was also isolated by a physical handicap, a congenital double hernia, which meant he had to wear a truss for most of his life and could not participate in sports. Eliot later recalled that his family had “lived on in a neighborhood which had become shabby to a degree approaching sluminess, after all our friends and acquaintances had moved further west.”3 The area was being taken over by poor African Americans, and Eliot’s life- long appreciation of popular song and his responsiveness to the seedy side of urban life owed something to this background.4 When he was seven or eight, Eliot began to attend a local private school. In the autumn of 1898 he began to attend Smith Academy, a prepa- ratory school for Washington University, a prestigious university in St. Louis, which Eliot’s grandfather had helped found. By January 1899, he already had brought out eight issues of his own magazine, the Fireside, a childish production that featured adventure stories, rhyming verses, and puns. Though he finished Smith Academy in 1905, his mother decided to wait a year before sending him to Harvard, a year he spent at Milton Academy, a private school outside Boston. There he met Scofield Thayer, a wealthy young man who later became co-owner and leading editor of the Dial, the journal in which The Waste Land was first published in the United States. In the autumn of 1906 Eliot began his undergraduate studies at Har- vard. In his second year he decided to complete his course for a bachelor’s degree in three years rather than the conventional four. His courses cov- ered a wide range of topics: German grammar, constitutional government, Greek literature, medieval history, English literature, French literature, ancient philosophy, modern philosophy, and comparative literature. But much that Eliot wanted to learn could not be discovered in the classroom. He was actively reading on his own. He later recalled the Scottish poet John Davidson (1857–1908), and especially his poem “Thirty Bob a Week,” with its stark presentation of a city clerk. He had “found inspiration in the content of the poem,” Eliot later recalled, “and in the complete fitness 4 introduction of content and idiom: for I also had a good many dingy urban images to reveal.”5 More important, however, was his discovery of Arthur Symons, whose study of The Symbolist Movement in Literature he purchased in De- cember 1908. The book was “one of those which have a¤ected the course of my life,” he said many years later.6 Above all it led Eliot to the discovery of the French poet Jules Laforgue (1860–1887), the author who was “the first to teach me how to speak, to teach me the poetic possibilities of my own idiom of speech.”7 Eliot promptly ordered the three volumes of La- forgue’s Oeuvres complètes, which reached him in the spring of 1909. In Laforgue’s poetry Eliot found much that he could adapt to his own use: the couplets turned by neat rhymes, the counterpoint achieved by inter- weaving stanzas with di¤erent imaginative weight and line length, and a tone that was questioning, quizzical, ironical, inconclusive. Within months the poems which Eliot was publishing in the Harvard Advocate were plainly showing the influence of Laforgue, even announcing it in their titles: “Nocturne” in November 1909, “Humouresque (after J.

  • J.M. Reibetanz Four Quartets As Poetry of Place One Thinks of Four
    J.M. Reibetanz Four Quartets as Poetry of Place One thinks of Four Quartets preeminently as a religious and philosophical poem; yet its argument does not proceed simply or preeminently on an abstract level. Rather, ideas enter our consciousness and our understanding through felt experience. Whether it be the paradox of the still point, the mystical negative way of illumination, the attitude of humility, the nature of time, the relationship of attachement, detachment, indifference and history, the necessity for atonement, or any of the other difficult ideas Eliot argues, the poetry leads us into a full experience of concepts by grounding them in places. Thus, we know the still point primarily through our vision in the rose-garden of Burnt Norton; the negative way of ilJumination is presented spatially as a descent into the darkness beneath the level of the London underground; the attitude of humility is derived out of the atmosphere of death that pervades East Coker; the nature of time is seen through our experience of the river and the sea; the thorny relationship of attachment, detachment, indifference and history is argued through the paradigm of the nettles on the hedgerow of Little Gidding; and the necessity for atonement arises from our experience of the tongues of fire that descend on wartime London. Even the primary religious concept of the Quartets. the Incarnation, is not fully argued in conceptual terms until three­ quarters of the way through the poem, at the end of The Dry Salvages. Long before that, however, its mystery is revealed to us in particular moments of illumination that transpire in time and also in place.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

  • Green Panels in the Ivory Towers
    Panels in the Ivory Towers By Karen Green Friday November 6, 2009 09:00:00 am Our columnists are independent writers who choose subjects and write without editorial input from comiXology. The opinions expressed are the columnist's, and do not represent the opinion of comiXology. Last month, the eye, the arts magazine section of the Columbia Spectator (Columbia University's student paper since 1877), published an article on the graphic novels collection in Butler Library. The reporter—a tall, lanky, and enthusiastic fellow named Tommy Hill— interviewed Ben Katchor, Columbia professor Richard Bulliet, and me. It's a terrific piece of writing, engaging and thoughtful; you can read ithere. I was pretty chuffed when the piece came out, not least because it was so much better written even than I'd hoped (despite a sporadic use of "illustrator" for "artist" that may irk some). The true source of my delight, however, was in the approach the article had taken. When the article appeared in the eye, I had sent the link to a variety of family, friends and acquaintances, some in the comics biz, and one industry professional had replied, "Pow sock comics aren't for kids anymore!" At first I thought this was a gently humorous jab, but I eventually realized that this person had dismissed the article as yet another mainstream- press piece that marveled, "Golly gosh, look what's happened to comics; they're all grown 1 up!" Lord knows there are a lot of these CAFKA articles out there (hat tip for the acronym coinage to The Beat and its commenters), mostly written by people who are still stuck in some kind of Frederic Wertham mindlock, assuming that all comics are read by budding juvenile delinquents, even comics that win National Book Awards or special Pulitzer Prizes.
