Based closely in spirit upon the most recent development in
prosodic studies, Verbal Transformation, Despair, and Hope in The
Waste Land attempts another round of "philosophical investigation".
The book demonstrates how The Waste Land could be read afresh in
terms of the hidden verbal transformation that reveals the
overlooked performative and collocative nature of language. This
verbal transformation makes The Waste Land flow naturally as truly
"rhythmical creation of [meaningful] beauty" the way Poe defines
poetry, especially through what Eliot calls "auditory imagination"
or what Herder calls "intermediary sensation" that makes the poetry
"the first language" of humanity or "dictionary of the soul." The
verbal transformation also serendipitously makes sounds of despair
the sounds of hope.
