Robert Crawford, author of the acclaimed biography of T.S. Eliot, will talk on ‘Tradition(s) and the Individual Talent’
A poet, biographer, critic and literary historian, Robert Crawford is emeritus Professor of English at the University of St Andrews. His earlier book, The Savage and the City in the work of T.S. Eliot, examined Eliot’s twin concerns of primitive and metropolitan life, while his authoritative two-volume biography of Eliot was described as “compelling” and “magisterial”.
Presented by the T.S. Eliot Society UK, the Lecture is free and open to all on a first come, first served basis.
