Eliot Illustrated
T.S. Eliot and
the music of poetry
Durham theses, Durham University, 1999
"Taking into consideration the Symbolist influence,
together with his preoccupation with language
and his interest in the musical quality inherent
in verse, one finds that Eliot's verse contains
a rhythmic movement that tends to sweep across
the whole line and links lines and stanzas together.
His is a language that is highly charged with
a harmonic resonance and a certain distancing
and abstracting which makes the reference
more universal, less specifically personal."
"Where past and future are gathered" — T. S. Eliot

The Apotropaic Sofa
"an apotropaic or paranoic buttress of ego consciousness"
— James Hillman in "Egalitarian Typologies Versus
The Perception of the Unique"
A British weblog on Saturday, 29 October 2016 —
"In the last few years it would appear that the linking of witch marks
and Halloween has become almost as commonplace as Christmas
and Coke adverts, Boxing Day and the DFS sales. They have become
the fallback of any journalist who wants a bit of a heritage twist to a story,
and can't find a good killer clown exclusive."
