“Ash Wednesday” is a classic long poem by T.S. Eliot, written after his 1927 conversion to Anglicanism. First published in 1930, it deals with the struggle that ensues when one who has lacked faith in the past strives to move towards God. In contemporary circles, it is often read published within [122]The Waste Land and Other Poems. [123]T.S. Elliot was a poet, essayist, publisher, playwright, literary critic and editor. Born in 1888 in St. Louis (MO, USA), he is considered one of the 20th century’s major poets, and a central figure in English-language Modernist poetry.”In ten years’ time,” wrote Edmund Wilson in [124]Axel’s Castle (1931), “Elliot has left upon English poetry a mark more unmistakable than that of any other poet writing in English.” In 1948, Eliot was awarded the Nobel Price “for his work as a trail-blazing pioneer of modern poetry.”
