Dec 28, 2018 · This idea is central to all of Eliot’s religious poetry and in particular to ‘A Song for Simeon’; namely that all Christians must endure hardship and suffering in this life if they are truly Christ’s followers.
Jan 2, 2021 · With its natural imagery suggesting a spiritual coming-to-life, Eliot’s 1935 poem moves symbolically from the barrenness of winter into the verdant fertility of Christ’s arrival.
Part 2 begins with a look back at the elemental images from all four poems: The death of air (Burnt Norton), the death of earth (East Coker), and the death of both water (Dry Salvages) and fire (Little Gidding).

The aim of this analysis was to investigate whether T.S. Eliot used primarily the Christian motifs in his poems. For the purposes of this analysis, one used 7 poems: Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, Gerontion, Waste Land, Hollow Men, Ash- Wednesday, Journey of the Magi and Four Quartets. The poems were analyzed by investigating the objective corr...
The Paschal mystery that Eliot embodied into his poetry as its anagogic monad unfolds into the poems' recurrent motifs of death and birth. The objective correlatives or indirect symbols will serve as their additional illustration, whereby the mystic Christian motifs of Holy Trinity, Sacraments and Church will be the focus of the interpretation. The...
The Paschal mystery and its motifs of death and birth in this chapter will be tackled through three different lenses of each Divine Person. Concerning God the Father, the focus of the analysis is on His prophetic voice and foreshadowing of the birth and death of his Son. The Father's prophecy about his plan of salvation will add to the elaboration ...
The Father's plan of redemption of the time and the human's sullied nature due to the Original Sin will be elaborated with the help of the omniscient narrator or prophetic voice of the Father both in the poem Waste Land and in the poem Journey of the Magi. Furthermore, the objective correlatives „thunder“ from the poem Waste Land (What the Thunder ...
The section on God the Son seems to give one a deeper insight into suffering and rebirth, with the allusions that the true rebirth of a soul occurs in the love of Christ embodied into his Passion. Christ as a “Word“ and a “tiger“ seem to implicate both His Incarnation and Passion. Moreover, the images of the birth, death and suffering appear to b...
The sacraments that will be tackled in the analysis are Baptism and Eucharist. These motifs were chosen due to the frequency of the images and objective correlatives in the analyzed poems. There are many indirect symbols, which seem to allude to these two sacraments, probably because of their strong reference to Eliot's anagogic monad of the myster...
The image of the water in Eliot's poems is very frequent and the poet likely used it to develop the motif of baptism. The water seems not to have a positive implication in the poems Love Song of J.Alfred Prufrock and Waste Land, since it is the place, where mermaids and nimphs dwell. Their songs („weila weila“) that lure into the distance recall th...
As the analysis demonstrated, the Christian motifs in Eliot's poems were used generally to thematize the Paschal mystery. The mystery of the Incarnation and Passion were observed through the Christian motifs Holy Trinity, Baptism, Eucharist and Church. Moreover, the interrelation between Jesus's birth and death seems to be projected onto the oridi...
Oct 15, 2023 · Full analysis and summary of T.S. Eliot's 'Journey of the Magi', a reflective, dramatic monologue that utilizes allusions, symbols and metaphors to produce a poem about birth, death, and spiritual and cultural renewal.
For the Hanged Man. Fear death by water. I see crowds of people, walking round a ring. (I John saw these things, and heard them).' (In Revelation John has just seen the throne of God, the river and the tree of life, and heard the promise of eternal life in the sight of the Almighty). A cancelled lyric passage in the manuscript, for
