These lines are terribly frustrating for female readers. The thought he explicated is the exact feeling I'll have when I finish this essay. Immersed in English tradition as to note the decay of society, not much about this overall piece pleases me, especially after researching all the literary inferences as to understand what an elitist he truly is. The fertility lacking in Eliot's work is difficult to relate to. He interprets the world as morally deviant, throughout his writing.
Science seems rather ignored, aside from natural description.
The religious stamp of time marks Eliot as human and faulted. This poem is where Eliot offends me the least, thinking it is his place in time I disagree with, concerning his views on women. He leaves a woman dissatisfied with his easy dismissal of acumen, never mentioning skill or talent concerning the female gender. Some of the more dreadful work analyzed herein is required reading in college today. T. Sterns Eliot, which completely suits him.
