Description

The Collected Prose of T. S. Eliot presents a comprehensive collection of Eliot's approved texts, showcasing his development as a poet and critic. Spanning four volumes, this series offers an authoritative record of Eliot's work, from his early observations to his final major opus, To Criticize the Critic. The first volume covers the years 1905-1928, a period marked by significant growth for Eliot, including the publication of Prufrock and Other Observations, The Waste Land, and Journey of the Magi. This volume also features Eliot's seminal early essays, The Sacred Wood, which assess the literary landscape of the era, including the work of Yeats, Swinburne, and Henry James. Eliot's search for meaning in the aftermath of the Great War is also explored in this volume. The second volume, spanning 1929-1934, sees Eliot's poetry mature into reflective verse, as seen in works such as Animula, Ash-Wednesday, and Marina. This period also saw the publication of Selected Essays, which reprint and revise Eliot's most important critical works, including those on Tradition and the Individual Talent, Hamlet, Marvell, and Dante.
