Show Notes

Thomas Stearns Eliot (1888 - 1965) was an Anglo-American poet. 


A devout Christian, Eliot was an important figure in the Modernist movement that sprang to life in the first quarter of the 20th century.


"Four Quartets", a uniquely sublime work by which all his other poems are eclipsed, addresses the theme of time. 


It's a theme on which, as you doubtless know, so many of our meditations here on Pneuma are based. 


I think that you'll enjoy it.
