T. S. Eliot's lifelong quest for a world of the spirit is the theme
of this book by leading Eliot scholar A. David Moody. The first
four essays in the collection map Eliot's spiritual geography: the
American taproot of his poetry, his profound engagement with the
philosophy and religion of India, his near and yet detached
relations with England, and his problematic cultivation of a
European mind. At the centre of the collection is a study of the
Latin poem Pervigilium Veneris, a fragment of which figures
enigmatically in the concluding lines of The Waste Land. The third
part of the collection is a set of five investigations of Eliot's
poems, dealing particularly with The Waste Land, Ash Wednesday and
Four Quartets, and attending to how they express and shape what he
called 'the deeper, unnamed feelings which form the substratum of
our being'.
