Who was The Wasteland dedicated to?
"The Wasteland" is a poem published by T.S. Eliot in 1922.
Considered as being perhaps the foremost example of high-modernism,
"The Wasteland" is a 443-line poem riddled with allusions to
Christ, references to Greek mythology, French poetry, as wells as a
litany of classical works.
Though the tone of "The Wasteland" is considered somewhat
somber, and full of despair, some interpret the ending to offer a
glimmer of hope, foreshadowing Eliot's conversion to Anglicanism;
Eliot was a devout member of the Anglican church at the time of his
death.
