Description

The Collected Prose of T. S. Eliot presents the critical writings of one of modern literature's most influential voices. Spanning four volumes, this collection brings together Eliot's prose in its final revised form, offering an authoritative record of his approved texts and revisions. This third volume collects Eliot's prose from 1935 to 1950, a period marked by experimentation with form and genre. During this time, he was composing for the theatre and writing for children, including Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. The works included in this collection, such as The Idea of a Christian Society (1939) and Notes Towards the Definition of Culture (1948), would go on to shape his later masterpieces, including the Four Quartets. By bringing together Eliot's critical writings from this pivotal period, The Collected Prose provides a unique insight into the development of one of 20th-century literature's most important voices.
