This essay plan has been written by a second-year undergraduate at Durham University.

It addresses the question: ’The time of the coupling of man and woman / And that of beasts. Feet rising and falling. / Eating and drinking. Dung and death’ (T. S. Eliot, ‘East Coker’). Discuss the significance of representations of materiality AND/OR the body in Eliot’s poetry.

This looks at the body as a source of anxiety in ‘The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock’, his anti-materialism instilled in ‘Ash Wednesday’, spirituality in ‘Four Quartets’, and Eliot’s own personal spiritual beliefs in the context of his poetry.
