Abstract:

Tesis para optar al grado de Magíster en Lingüística.<br>La tesis propone que el poema La Tierra Baldía es la dolorosa expresión del colapso de una época y la síntesis del derrumbe de la mujer; que T.S. Eliot, apoyándose en la inversión de las leyendas del Grial, logró fusionar con su propia tragedia personal. El poema sería la evidencia de la esterilidad y el fracaso del amor entre un hombre y una mujer, configurada poéticamente teniendo a la base una riquísima simbología sobre la infertilidad, el vacío y la muerte; en la que el sexo, por su radical función generativa y amorosa, ocupa un luga

Abstract:

Une dimension théâtrale est perceptible dans toute l’oeuvre de T. S. Eliot. Ses poèmes sont souvent construits comme des œuvres théâtrales et inversement son théâtre est structuré par la versification. Le souvenir des minstrel shows et du ragtime dans le Missouri de son enfance peut être relié à une veine burlesque et à l’importance du nonsense. Le Black Hare de Uncle Remus et le March Hare de Lewis Carroll ont laissé des traces dans son écriture. L’interaction entre théâtre populaire et théâtre lettré, entre l’enfance de la langue et la tradition de textes anciens est envisagée par Eliot comm

Abstract:

This study attempts to establish a connection between the moral philosophy of F. H. Bradley, particularly as expressed in his Ethical Studies and modified in the teaching of Josiah Royce, and the moral thought of Eliot's poetic writings, beginning with "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock," culminating in Four Quartets, and finding a new mode of expression in the dramas. By tracing Eliot's moral thought to the nineteenth century anti-utilitarian moral controversies out of which Bradley's Ethical Studies grew, this study clarifies Eliot's position in the history of moral philosophy.

Abstract:

In his 1916 dissertation, Eliot asserted that individuals were locked into finite centers and that all knowledge was epistemologically relative, but he also believed that finite centers could be transcended through language. In the essay "Lancelot Andrewes,'" Eliot identified Andrewes's "relevant intensity," a method very close to nonsensical verse. Eliot used Andrewes's Word and the impersonality of nonsense verse in Ash Wednesday. The Word, God's logos, embodied the Virgin Mary as its source, and allowed Eliot to transcend the finite center through language. Ultimately, Eliot philosophically

Abstract:

This comprehensive analysis of T. S.

Abstract:

Many critics resort to explaining readers' experiences of poems like William Blake's Jerusalem and T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets in terms of "spirituality" or "religion". These experiences are broadly defined in this thesis as jouissance (after Roland Barthes' essay The Pleasure of the Text) or "experience qua experience". Critical attempts at the reduction of jouissance into abstract constructs serve merely as stopgap measures by which critics might avoid having to account for the limits of their own rational discourse. These poems, in particular, are deliberately structured to preserve the read

Abstract:

This thesis explores Eliot's allusive method, that is his use of Judaeo-Christianity with its analogues (and sometimes sources) in pre-Biblical primitive myths and legends. The first chapters study The Confidential Clerk and the draft material of the play which contains overt allusions-subsequently expurgated - to Sargon and Dionysos'as pre-Biblical archetypes of Moses and Christ respectively. I discuss the growth and development of the two legends of Sargon and Dionysos and their Biblical counterparts through successive drafts of the' play.

Abstract:

T.S. Eliot's use of allusion is crucial to the structure and themes of his early poetry. It may be viewed as a compulsion, evident in even the earliest poems, rather than just affectation or elitism. His allusions often involve the reversal or re-ordering of constructions of gender in other literature, especially in other literary treatments of myth. Eliot's "classical" anti-Romanticism may be understood according to this dual concern with myth and gender, in that his poetry simultaneously derives from and attacks a perceived "feminised" Romantic tradition, one which focuses on female characte

Abstract:

The poetry of T. S. Eliot represents intense yet discriminate expressions of desire. His poetry is a poetry of desire that extenuates the long tradition of love poetry in Occidental culture. The unique and paradoxical element of love in Occidental culture is that it is based on an ideal of the unconsummated love relationship between man and woman. The struggle to express desire, yet remain true to ideals that have deep sacred and secular significance is the key animating factor of Eliot's poetry. To conceal and reveal desire, Eliot made use of four core elements of modernism: the apocalyptic v

Abstract:

Of major literary interest because he attained almost pontifical status in English poetry, drama and criticism for an extended period in the twentieth century, T.S. Eliot appears today to have been a writer of apparently baffling complexity. An important aspect of this phenomenon is that his poetry (which generally shows every evidence of great deliberation in its composition) appears often to subvert his critical dicta. However, Eliot's landscape imagery, which derives very largely from his own experience and beliefs, particularly in his childhood and youth, faithfully reflects a varie

This thesis traces the relationship between the First World War, constructions of masculinity, and the life and poetry of T.S. Eliot. Central to this relationship is a study of homoeroticism, which the author characterizes as different from homosexuality but not exclusive of it, in late 19th and early 20th century poetic traditions. The argument begins by establishing a critical framework that draws on contemporary paradigms of Modernist literary gender studies but also seeks to revise them by shifting the focus to issues surrounding masculinity. With this framework in place, the thesis goes o

Collectively, however, their lives span 300 years of cultural history.
