The Placing of T.S. EliotJewel Spears Brooker Fourteen essays assess Eliot's place--geographically, culturally, philosophically, and within the context of library history. The contributions originated as invited lectures for the T.S. Eliot Society as memorial lectures between 1984 and 1989 or as centennial lectures in 1988.
