“Again I must remind you that A Dog’s a Dog – A CAT’S A CAT” Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot, first published #OnThisDay 5th Oct 1939

Hi #ModWrite #Modernism peeps! If you've been to an Eliot Society meeting, you know we love our grad students and early career scholars. We have annual awards to show where our hearts lie! Winners of the 2025 Fathman Awards are: Gabriela Minden and Nicholas Smart 🤩🤩

Circa 1900 mass literacy and the standardisation of writing created modernism as a reaction against homogeneous instrumental language. LLMs will do the same. We stand on the verge of a modernist literary Renaissance and as a result we must urgently fund modernist studies research

When you’re over the word limit

Managed to the end (not with a whimper, but with a bang!) of 4 long and exciting days at the @IntlTSEliotSoc annual meeting in Dublin 🇮🇪 Great papers and chats - it was so lovely to meet again with old & new friends

Such heartbreaking news. A mackintosh square will forever be at her disposition on a distant hill overlooking Florence. Rest in peace, Dame Maggie Smith. 🕯️

“I am here Or there, or elsewhere. In my beginning.” T.S. Eliot was born this day 26th September 1888

This #ModWrite we're pleased to announce: 📢 New Work in Modernist Studies 14 📌 13 December 2024 @uniofeastanglia 🖋Abstract deadline 18 October 2024 An opportunity for PhDs/Early Career Researchers working on modernism (broadly defined!) to share work & connect. Please share!

Task for the day is to try to decipher my own bad handwriting and implement my edits on the chapter file I'm working on. I'm clearly not an early modernist, you can tell by my poor deciphering skills 🔍

I am aware knowledge about the period is quite patchy and lacking, but I wonder if Eliot scholars have noticed or speculated on this rather-arguable-but-fascinating coincidence? /8 @IntlTSEliotSoc @TSEliotSocUK @TSEliotSchool

The English Church, or Christ Church, was open for service in 1878 and represented a reference point to the Anglican churchgoers of the region. Now, might it not be the case that Eliot stopped there on the way from his pension to Vittoz and then back? /7

Before getting there, on my way along the marvellous Avenue d'Ouchy and its sumptuous palaces, my attention fell on a sign for an English Church, a few steps away from the main road. /6

I was really struck by the small-scale and homely atmosphere of the villa, which provided Vittoz's patients with a caring, welcoming environment. Geographically, the villa is close to the main road but still in a quiet, removed area far from the hustle and bustle of the city. /5
