T. S. Eliot's reformulation of the idea of literary tradition has
been one of the key critical concepts of the twentieth century. In
this reappraisal of tradition, an international team of scholars
explores the concept from a variety of theoretical and historical
perspectives, including a series of illuminating case studies
evaluating Eliot's version of tradition alongside the theories of
other major twentieth-century critics. This 2007 volume will be of
great interest to students of literary theory, modernist studies
and intellectual history, initiating a dialogue between Continental
and Anglo-American investigations into the nature of literary
traditions. Tradition is a concept often viewed by contemporary
critics with misunderstanding or even hostility. This book
powerfully reaffirms the continuing importance of our artistic and
cultural traditions in shaping the past and creating the future.
