The Waste Land, a groundbreaking long poem by T. S. Eliot, was first published in 1922. Its revolutionary nature quickly gained recognition, and it has since been hailed as one of the most influential poems of the 20th century, playing a pivotal role in understanding modernism. This collection of essays explores the legacy of The Waste Land one hundred years after its original publication, celebrating its richness, unique language, and profound impact on Britain, Ireland, and India.
The contributors, drawn from the UK, North America, and India, employ a diverse range of approaches to re-examine the poem. Some contributors seek to re-read it in fresh and original ways, while others challenge established interpretations and present new insights into its development through its drafts or as an orchestration on the page. Several contributors also question prevailing wisdom about the poem's immediate legacy in the decade following its publication and its influence on criticism and new poetries throughout the first century of its existence.
An Introduction to the volume provides context for the poem itself and the background to the essays. Each piece aims to review our understanding of the poem and bring fresh eyes to its brilliance, one hundred years after its initial publication.
Contributors to this volume include Rebecca Beasley, Rosinka Chaudhuri, William Davies, Hugh Haughton, Marjorie Perloff, Andrew Michael Roberts, Peter Robinson, and Michael Wood.
