출판사 서평

The Book of The Sacred Wood, by T. S. Eliot
INTRODUCTION
To anyone who is at all capable of experiencing the pleasures of justice, it is
gratifying to be able to make amends to a writer whom one has vaguely
depreciated for some years. The faults and foibles of Matthew Arnold are no less
evident to me now than twelve years ago, after my first admiration for him; but I
hope that now, on re- reading some of his prose with more care, I can better
appreciate his position. And what makes Arnold seem all the more remarkable is,
that if he were our exact contemporary, he would find all his labour to perform
again. A moderate number of persons have engaged in what is called “ critical”
writing, but no conclusion is any more solidly established than it was in 1865. In
the first essay in the first Essays in Criticism we read that
it has long seemed to me that the burst of creative activity in our literature,
through the first quarter of this century, had about it in fact something
premature; and that from this cause its productions are doomed, most of
them, in spite of the sanguine hopes which accompanied and do still
accompany them, to prove x hardly more lasting than the productions of far
less splendid epochs. And this prematureness comes from its having
proceeded without having its proper data, without sufficient material to work
with. In other words, the English poetry of the first quarter of this century,
with plenty of energy, plenty of creative force, did not know enough. This
makes Byron so empty of matter, Shelley so incoherent, Wordsworth even,
profound as he is, yet so wanting in completeness and variety.
