' There must be many persons who, like myself, were deeply shaken by the events of September 1938. It was not a criticism of the government but a doubt about the validity of a civilisation.'
T. S. Eliot 's remark, made while writing the Four Quartets, reveals his distaste for the Intellectual climate of his time. In the first of five talks about Four
Quartets, Eric Griffiths , of Trinity College,
Cambridge, reflects on Eliot scrupulous uncertainty about political conviction and his attempt to ' insinuate the whole history of a language and a civilisation ' Into his writing. Readers MARTIN JARVIS and ALEX JENNINGS Producer THOMAS SUTCLIFFE (Martin Jarvis is a National Theatre player)
