T. S. Eliot

1888–1965

T. S. Eliot (1888–1965) was an American-born British poet, essayist, publisher, playwright, and literary critic, widely regarded as one of the 20th century's most influential literary figures. He is best known for his modernist masterpieces 'The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock' and 'The Waste Land,' as well as his critical essays that reshaped literary theory. A Nobel laureate in Literature (1948), Eliot's work is characterized by its erudition, fragmentation, and deep engagement with tradition, religion, and the human condition.
