ellauri160.html on line 203: In June, July and August 1917 Pound had the first three cantos published, as "Three Cantos", in Poetry. Twice the length of Paradise Lost and 50 times longer than The Waste Land, Pound's 800-page The Cantos ("Canto I" to "Canto CXVI", c. 1917–1962) became his life's work.
ellauri160.html on line 214: Eliot sent Pound the manuscript of The Waste Land in 1922. Pound edited it with comments like "make up yr. mind", and reduced it by about half. Possum's dedication in The Waste Land was "For Ezra Pound / il miglior fabbro" (the "better craftsman"), from Canto 26 of Dante's Purgatorio.

In the seventeenth century it was scarcely populated and continually raided by the Tartars from the Crimea. The Cossacks, who defended this borderland, were originally allies of Poland. However, they resented their disdainful treatment by the szlachta (the Polish gentry) and particularly the magnates, who owned large manors with serfs.

Vizikästä kyllä sille ei ole anglosaxisivua Wikipediassa, vain italialaiset kommunistit muistavat. Hänet tunnetaan parhaiten amerikkalaisen kulutuskapitalismin dynamiikan muotoilustaan, joka ilmaistiin vuonna 1955 Journal of Retailing -lehdessä julkaistulla artikkelilla nimeltä Hintakilpailu vuonna 1955. Artikkeli sai jonkin verran huomiota pian ilmestymisensä jälkeen, ja sosiologi Vance Packard mainitsi sen vuoden 1960 teoksessaan The Waste Makers. Lähde

S. Eliot's The Waste Land at just that time. The Georgian poets became something of a by-word for conservatism, but at the time of the early anthologies they saw themselves as modern (if not modernist) and progressive.
ellauri276.html on line 441: Russell hylkäsi ensin Kavanaghin työn, mutta rohkaisi häntä jatkamaan alistumista, ja hän julkaisi Kavanaghin säkeet vuosina 1929 ja 1930. Tämä inspiroi maanviljelijää lähtemään kotoa ja yrittämään edistää toiveitaan. Vuonna 1931 hän käveli 80 mailia (noin 129 kilometriä) tavatakseen Russellin Dublinissa, jossa Kavanaghin veli oli opettaja. Russell antoi Kavanaghille kirjoja, muun muassa Fjodor Dostojevskin, Victor Hugon, Walt Whitmanin, Ralph Waldo Emersonin ja Robert Browningin teoksia, ja hänestä tuli Kavanaghin kirjallinen neuvonantaja. Kavanagh liittyi Dundalk Libraryyn ja ensimmäinen kirja, jonka hän lainasi, oli TS Eliotin The Waste Land.

More ink has been spilt over TS Eliot’s great modernist song of despair (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/books/what-to-read/broken-down-bank-clerk-three-months-margate-ts-eliot-wrote/) than any other poem published in the past hundred years. Its centenary has been marked by the second volume of Robert Crawford’s Eliot biography (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/books/what-to-read/new-biography-makes-ts-eliots-life-seem-unthinkably-grim/), the memoirs of Eliot’s confidante Mary Trevelyan and a life of his muse Emily Hale (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/books/what-to-read/hidden-women-ts-eliots-life/), following not all that long after a biography of his first wife, Vivienne (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/books/what-to-read/fall-sparrow-ann-pasternak-slater-review-tragic-life-ts-eliots/). That’s ignoring the nine volumes of Eliot’s letters (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/books/what-to-read/letters-ts-eliot-vol-8-review-really-necessary/), each a convenient size to club a man to death with.
ellauri409.html on line 556: His vitality can’t help but pull focus from the wilting, valetudinarian Tom and Vivienne Eliot. But Vivienne, as intelligent as she was troubled, had a terrific ear for dialogue; her re-writes gave Eliot’s poem some of its best lines. Most of The Waste Land’s first stanza is in the voice of the Countess Marie Larisch. According to his second wife Valerie, Eliot met Marie in 1911 and lifted those famous lines “verbatim” from their chat. WB Yeats at dinner had a lock of hair flopping into his soup. Tom had a cow when his typewriter ribbon snapped.

Eliot returns to Marvell in The Waste Land with the lines "But at my back in a cold blast I hear / The rattle of the bones" (Part III, line 185) and "But at my back from time to time I hear / The sound of horns and motors" (Part III, line 196).

(in Greek, Σίβυλλα τί θέλεις; pronounced more or less "Sibylla, ti theleis"). She replies, "I want to die" (in Greek, ἀποθανεῖν θέλω, pronounced "apothanein thelo"). I learned this, as you did, not from reading the Satyricon, but from beating T S Eliot's The Waste Land to death in my English Lit class.

xxx/ellauri224.html on line 365: Eliot was in love three times (not counting the catamites), and each of those loves became events in his artistic and spiritual lives – and two of the women involved were massively the worse for it. Vivien Eliot was a difficult woman, yet Eliot – who had connived at her affair with Bertrand Russell – treated her, with the agreement of his spiritual advisers, with a coldness that helped break her spirit, perhaps her mind. Emily Hale was the woman he deserted for Vivien; she spent her life at his encouragement waiting for Vivien to die, and it was in her presence that he had some of his deepest moments of spiritual intensity – yet she was eventually dismissed from his life with equal coldness. They were both central to his greatest works: Vivien to The Waste Land and Emily to much of The Four Quartets.
xxx/ellauri225.html on line 385: Provoked and inspired by T. S. Eliot, Crane wrote modernist poetry that was difficult, highly stylized, and ambitious in its scope. In his most ambitious work, The Bridge, Crane sought to write an epic poem, in the vein of The Waste Land, that expressed a more optimistic view of modern, urban culture than the one that he found in Eliot´s work. But he FAILED! In the years following his suicide at the age of 32, Crane has been hailed by playwrights, poets, and literary critics alike (including Robert Lowell, Derek Walcott, Tennessee Williams, and Harold Bloom), as being one of the most influential poets of his generation.
xxx/ellauri225.html on line 393: "Faustus and Helen" was part of a larger artistic struggle to meet modernity with something more than despair. Crane identified T. S. Eliot with that kind of despair, and while he acknowledged the greatness of The Waste Land, he also said it was "so damned dead", an impasse, and characterized by a refusal to see "certain spiritual events and possibilities" Crane´s self-appointed work would be to bring those spiritual events and possibilities to poetic life, and so create "a mystical synthesis of America". But he FAILED!
xxx/ellauri225.html on line 401: His ambition to synthesize America was expressed in The Bridge (1930), intended to be an uplifting counter to Eliot's The Waste Land. The Brooklyn Bridge is both the poem's central symbol and its poetic starting point. He kinda wanted to pick up where Wilt with is Brooklyn Ferry got off the boat.

xxx/ellauri410.html on line 136: This essay assembles the “Bolovian Epic” from the Columbo and Bolo verses and nonsense letters that T.S. Eliot wrote over a period of eighteen years (1910–1928). Such an aggregation is made possible by the publication of excised poems from the “Waste Land” Notebook and Volumes I–IV of The Letters of T.S. Eliot. Rather than seeing individual parts of the epic as simply obscene, I interpret the whole project and its contexts as grounded in his appreciation for the primitive and a critical disdain for the so-called civilized. Eliot invents a composite race of people, the Bolovians, whose influence on modern times includes racy behavior, religious affinities, and bowler hats. Understanding this bawdy, blue, or nonsense material contributes capitally to previous scholarship defaming Eliot's moral and cultural values.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 212: Pound was teasing Eliot, because Bishop balked at publishing the “Waste Land” for the high brow Vanity Fair. Eliot replies the next day reporting:
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 218: The sound of the Rear Admirals’s cabin boy gives him an erection, i.e. a manly bone. “Manly bone” rimes with the tube station Marylebone, the route that ends in Golders Green, where BBQ once frolicked, hence perhaps another reference to penises (trains) entering vaginas (train stations or tunnels). What Eliot called “the rape of the bishop” in a letter to Pound, refers to John Peale Bishop’s failure to print “The Waste Land” in Vanity Fair.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 243: Marja Palmer Lundista sums it up rather neatly: The sexual undertone in the early "Love Song" runs through Eliot's poetry between 1910 and 1925, gaining greater emphasis in The Waste Land and The Hollow Men . The agony and distress associated with sexual matters play a vital role in his early poems, a circumstance which has not always been fully recognized. Erotic concerns and preoccupations fill the lives of the main "characters" in this poetry, men and women alike. However, experiences of this kind are unsettling, and any attempt at a dialogue between the sexes is bound to fail. In each of the four collections, the theme of relationships between men and women indicates a step further downwards into isolation. There is an afflicting want of any feelings of love and tenderness - only a mechanized sexuality is left, stripped of all its generative force and with sterility and impotence as the consistent, final result.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 257: An admirer of Eliot’s poetry, Ottoline ‘found him dull, dull, dull’, resorting to French in her efforts to rouse him from monotony. Such early impressions are of a piece with Eliot’s Garsington caricature – ‘the undertaker’. It was Ottoline who recommended to Eliot Dr Roger Vittoz, the Swiss psychiatrist at whose Lausanne clinic Eliot recovered from his nervous breakdown; the clinic where, in the winter of 1921, lodged in the room where Ottoline herself had stayed, Eliot wrote ‘What the Thunder Said’, the final part of The Waste Land. A few years later she suggested another of her doctors, Dr Marten, but his regime of starvation proved disastrous.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 315: "Sweeney jäykkänä" kirjoitettiin ja julkaistiin vuonna 1919 Eliotin kokoelmassa "Poems". Siellä Sweeney debytoi. Eliot käytti Sweeneyä myöhemmin runoissa, kuten " Sweeney among the Nightingales " ja "Mr. Eliotin sunnuntaiaamuerektio." Hänet mainitaan lyhyesti myös The Waste Landissa.
