 MEG – 02: BRITISH DRAMA

ASSIGNMENT 2021 - 2022

7. Discuss Murder in the Cathedral as a poetic drama. 

Ans. Since Eliot began his career as a writer during the second decade of this century, there has been just a single shift in his mental focus and his turn over to the Poetic Stage is connected with this positional displacement. This focal shift in his approach does not involve any fundamental twist in his outlook. The original stand he took was one of repulsion to the bourgeois liberalism civilisation with its stress on realism, skepticism- 'the dry-rock, waste-land symbolism' and from this he was logically led on to the subsequent position, that of deep respect for tradition and an understanding of faith in theology and ecclesiastical authority.
