T S Eliot’s poem ‘To the Indians who Died in Africa’ is an interesting Eliot piece. It is not often you read a poem by Eliot which refrains from striking the grand pose. He tended to invoke the giant issues of human soul every time he penned a poem‚ except of course‚ when he wrote those cat poems. But this is a puzzlingly small-aimed poem. A bit advise not grand wisdom‚ I guess. That this poem in imbued in the war and empire atmosphere is obvious. What he has to say to the Indians is funnily passive

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

Eliot writes of culture as "the way of life of a particular people living together in one place. That culture is made visible in their arts‚ in their social system‚ in their habits and customs‚ in their religion.(Milner‚ A (1994) Contemporary Cultural Theory: An Introduction. London: UCC Press.) A culture‚ then according to Eliot is one which is shared in common by a whole people‚ although he believed it was not shared equally between the people. Eliot divided the people into two groups‚ the elite

126 The Ocean-Desert: The Ancient Mariner and. The Waste Land FLORENCE MARSH WHEN Coleridge’s The Ancient Mariner and T. S. Eliot’s The Waste Land are juxtaposed‚ the two poems become mutually illuminating. Nor is the juxtaposition arbitrary‚ since both are essentially religious poems concerned with salvation. In both‚ the protagonist needs to recover from a living death‚ from spiritual dryness. Structurally‚ The Waste Land has almost no narrative thread‚ no story‚ but it sounds motifs that

"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
