蜜芽传媒

Poet Daljit Nagra revisits the 蜜芽传媒's poetry archive and, to mark 60 years since the death of TS Eliot, he selects Macavity's Not There.

At one time TS Eliot was one of Britain's most important cultural figures: but Britain has changed out of all recognition since then.

How does a new edition of Eliot's writings affect his reputation: and how much significance do his poems really have in 21st century Britain?

Critic Michael Alexander explores Eliot's legacy, with the help of Eliot scholar Sir Christopher Ricks, and the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams.

Producer: Paul Bajoria

First broadcast on 蜜芽传媒 Radio 4 in 2009.

**** And Daljit reads from his Poetry Extra Book of the Month for January: Oi You Lot - a debut collection by Kareem Parkins-Brown.
