SCOPE: T.S. Eliot was born in St. Louis Missouri,
summered in New England and later attended Harvard
University. His contributions to the literary world are
beyond comparison as he greatly influenced poetry and
drama. His primary goal was to “portray the presence and
significance of the spiritual in the human experience by
means of poetic drama.” (MacNicholas, John, ed.
Dictionary of Literary Biography vol.7) Some of his
major works include The Wasteland, Murder in the
Cathedral, The Cocktail Party, and The Family Reunion.
