DESCRIPTION:This lecture explores Eliot’s attachment to the language of 
 liturgy\, and examines the use he makes of words and rhythms from the Book
  of Common Prayer in three poems written around the time of his conversion
  to Anglo-Catholicism (The Hollow Men\, A Song for Simeon and Ash-Wednesda
 y). In the light of newly available materials from the Complete Prose and 
 the Emily Hale Letters\, the lecture looks at the intersections of poetry 
 with prayer and blasphemy\, and considers what happens when the language o
 f liturgy meets the anxieties of modernist poetics. \nSpeakers:\nCécile V
 arry (Oriel College\, Oxford & Université Paris Cité)
