Recenzje

'[T. S. Eliot in Context] is a highly useful volume. Many of the essays illuminate with a personal perspective well-informed, solid accounts of essential topics in Eliot studies. Others synthesize recent developments in Eliot scholarship the authors themselves have pioneered, or else flesh out interestingly idiosyncratic critical approaches to their subjects. Finally, there are a few essays that, fulfilling Harding's hopes, provide thick description of adjacent historical materials and open up genuinely fresh scholarly approaches to Eliot's work.'
