On the basis of an eco-critical perspective, this work aims at investigating the relationship between man and nature in T. S. Eliot’s The Waste Land, illustrating the manner in which it may evolve from deterioration and sterility to a harmonious organic communication, mystically achieved — after a necessary spiritual detachment — in an unreal dimension, where a transcendental plenitude and a genuine nature substitute the emptiness of the modern world.

Abstract

On the basis of an eco-critical perspective, this work aims at investigating the relationship between man and nature in T. S. Eliot’s The Waste Land, illustrating the manner in which it may evolve from deterioration and sterility to a harmonious organic communication, mystically achieved — after a necessary spiritual detachment — in an unreal dimension, where a transcendental plenitude and a genuine nature substitute the emptiness of the modern world.
