Summary note
From his early ́⁰Curtain Raiser" to the late Four Quartets, T.S. Eliot took an interest in all the arts, drawing on them for poetic inspiration and for analysis in his prose. T.S. Eliot and the Arts provides extensive, high quality research about his many-sided engagement with painting, sculpture, museum artefacts, architecture, music, drama, music hall, opera and dance, as well as the emerging media of recorded sound, film and radio. Building on the newly published editions of Eliot́⁰₉s prose and poetry, this contemporary research collection opens avenues for understanding Eliot both in his own right as a poet and critic and as a foremost exemplar of interarts modernism.
