Moréas’s seminal article appeared thirty-six years before T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land and reads uncannily like a ‘blueprint’ for this long poem: Moréas provides a key to deal with The Waste Land’s ‘difficult language’; he elucidates Eliot’s use of obscure allegory by showing how the poem has a goal, not of bringing the reader to flounder in difficulty, but of bringing him or her to experience emotion.
