This collection of essays brings together scholars from a wide
range of critical approaches to study T. S. Eliot's engagement with
desire, homoeroticism and early twentieth-century feminism in his
poetry, prose and drama. Ranging from historical and formalist
literary criticism to psychological and psychoanalytic theory and
cultural studies, Gender, Desire and Sexuality in T. S. Eliot
illuminates such topics as the influence of Eliot's mother - a poet
and social reformer - on his art; the aesthetic function of
physical desire; the dynamic of homosexuality in his poetry and
prose; and his identification with passive or 'feminine' desire in
his poetry and drama. The book also charts his reception by female
critics from the early twentieth century to the present. This book
should be essential reading for students of Eliot and Modernism, as
well as queer theory and gender studies.
