About the T S Eliot Society
The T S Eliot Society (UK) was founded in 2006.
The Society exists to:
- Promote the study and appreciation of Eliot's work.
- Promote events celebrating Eliot's work.
- Produce a regular newseltter.
- Help to arrange an annual Eliot Day at Little Gidding.
- Sustain at Ferrar House a facility in which ordinary Eliot enthusiasts can immerse themselves, study, or research and write on Eliot-inspired matters, using the Society's archive held there.
- Facilitate local meetings of Society members and their friends in other centres of population across the UK.
- Collaborate with Eliot appreciation societies in other countries.
The Society is young and growing, and needs students and lovers of Eliot to join the Society and assist it in its aims.
The primary focus of the Society is in the United Kingdom, although members from around the world are welcome (there are separate societies in the USA, Korea and Japan). In particular we hope to encourage local branches and local meetings to enable as many members as possible to meet, to celebrate and to promote T S Eliot.
On these pages you will find news of the Society, and about events that it is arranging, along with other events, a biographical sketch of Eliot, and details of how to join the Society.
