Eliot’s Tropisms: Weather, Tropisms, and the Turning of the Century
Type de matériel :
TexteLangue : français Détails de publication : 2001.
Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : Eliot’s poetry articulates in diverse ways the notion of tropism, the twists and turns of writing, in their indissoluble involvement with time and shifts in time, whether in terms of turns of the century, or simply of important moments in the history of ideas. Eliot’s poems revise a linear, positivistic and analytic conception of time, into a Bergsonian conception. A deconstruction of the phototropism is at work, a gradual shift from the figure of the heliotrope to that of the “eliotrope,” for which this essay provides several case studies.
