Tradition and Individual Talent (collected Works of Eliot)

I

105K0

Eliot's 60th anniversary edition, the pioneering work of the New Criticism in British and American literature; a must-read document for English literary theory and writing courses; subverting "tradition" with tradition and defending individuality with impersonality. What is tradition? How should poets, or artists, view the relationship between their creations and tradition? Eliot gave a conclusive conclusion in his famous article "Tradition and Individual Talent": Tradition is not a blind or timid adherence to the successful methods of the previous generation, but something with a much broader significance. It contains historical consciousness and is not inherited. To obtain it requires a lot of labor. This work was the foundation of New Criticism and directly influenced the birth of later critical classics such as Bloom's "The Anxiety of Influence" and Leavis's "The Great Tradition". The "impersonality" theory mentioned in the article - poetry is not the release of emotion, but the escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but the escape from personality. It has also become a crucial theory in modern literature, and has had a huge impact on Roland Barthes's "The Author is Dead" and Michel Foucault's "What is the Author". In addition to this article that provides a comprehensive and holistic reflection on literature, the collection of the same name "Tradition and Individual Talent" also includes Eliot's evaluation and appreciation of specific poets, focusing on the discussion and analysis of the literary creation of the Elizabethan era. As a poet who is highly conscious of the nature and process of poetry creation, Eliot's creation and his criticism are closely linked. This anthology allows us to better appreciate his creations through his criticism, and at the same time, it also helps us better understand the nature of literature.

"The Shackles of Humanity" is a soul confession that Maugham has tempered for half his life, and this book will lead readers through a hundred years of time and resonate with Philip Carey in the contemporary survival dilemma. Through a deconstructive perspective, from religious discipline, morbid attachment to middle-class disillusionment, the secular preset life script is peeled off layer by layer - when idealists burn paintings, securities upstarts fall into the slums, and doctors resurrect art under the scalpel, every "failure" reshapes the boundaries of freedom. The book creates an original "Apocalypse Now" section, which grafts literary classics onto real-life pain points such as PUA in the workplace, anxiety about paying for knowledge, and the 35-year-old crisis. It uses Philip's lameness to crush the success learning filter and allows the "flaw philosophy" of the Persian carpet to cure the obsessive-compulsive disorder of perfection in the era of involution. This is not an introduction, but an invitation: in the ashes of meaning, rewrite the algorithm of your life.

Read "klingsor's Last Summer" in One Book

Where Is An?

"Klingsor's Last Summer" is like a self-portrait painted with fiery colors and broken brushstrokes. In the last days of his life, the painter Klingsor walked on the edge of madness and sobriety, painting the canvas with strong colors and deconstructing himself in alcohol and poetry. Hesse used delicate brushstrokes to interweave the ecstasy of artistic creation with the fear of approaching death, showing the artist's ultimate pursuit of eternity and nothingness. Those splendid and distorted images and gibbering monologues are not only Klingsor's cry against nothingness, but also Hesse's profound inquiry into the nature of life. In the summer when despair and splendor intertwine, they leave behind a soul-shaking life poem.
