  This is an examination of T.S. Eliot's poetry in which the author considers the works against a background of the social and political problems of prejudice. Eliot was writing at a time of great contradiction in thought; never has the accusation of prejudice been stronger, and yet never has there been so wide an agreement that no understanding of anything is possible without preconceptions. Christopher Ricks is author of Milton's Grand Style , Tennyson , Keats and Embarrassment and The Force of Poetry .
