T. S. Eliot enjoyed a profound relationship with Earth. Criticism
of his work does not suggest that this exists in his poetic oeuvre.
Writing into this gap, Etienne Terblanche demonstrates that Eliot
presents Earth as a process in which humans immerse themselves. The
Waste Land and Four Quartets in particular re-locate the modern
reader towards mindfulness of Earth's continuation and one's
radical becoming within that process. But what are the potential
implications for ecocriticism? Based on its careful reading of the
poems from a new material perspective, this book shows how vital it
has become for ecocriticism to be skeptical about the extent of its
skepticism, to follow instead the twentieth century's most
important poet who, at the end of searing skepticism, finds
affirmation of Earth, art, and real presence.
