In 1930‚ just three years after his baptism and confirmation into the Anglican Church‚ T. S. Eliot published his conversion story. It was his poem Ash Wednesday.[i] He had converted amid tides of intellectuals rebelling against the over-secular society of the early twentieth century. Ash Wednesday is the chronicle of this conversion‚ told in beautiful allegories and metaphors. It portrays the struggle Eliot faced in converting. “It is a poem about the difficulty of religious belief‚ about the

"The Waste Land" is a modernist poem by T. S. Eliot caused a sensation when it was published in 1922. It is today the most widely translated and studied English-language poem of the twentieth century. This is perhaps surprising given the poem’s length and its difficulty‚ but Eliot’s vision of modern life as plagued by sordid impulses‚ widespread apathy‚ and pervasive soullessness packed a punch when readers first encountered it. Pound’s influence on the final version of "The Waste Land" is significant

Stability versus Change and Metamorphosis in T.S. Eliot ’s The Waste Land. When one reads The Waste Land for the first time‚ it may be difficult to extract some clear meanings out of the poem. The common reader is used to expect some uniformity and wholeness‚ some kind of unity or continuity in one or various aspects in any piece of writing he or she comes across. Therefore‚ when one has to face a poem like this one‚ the sensation of puzzlement‚ confusion and powerlessness is unavoidable. Even
