(The Waste Land, The Hollow Men) TS Eliot's poetry : brushed 19th c aside. Standard: 17th c metaphysical poets. Poetry: more subtle, suggestive, precise. Modernist innovation: reproducing sharp contradictions. Fast tempo of modern life. Considerable difficulty to the reader: vast number of allusions. Compressing ideas, saving space. Language of different layers of society: conversation, free verse. Foreign language: erudition, modern world: unhomogeneous, legacy of Babel Tower, impaired communication Objective correlative: The only way of expressing emotion in the form of art is by finding an "objective correlative"; in other words, a set of objects, a situation, a chain of events which shall be the formula of that particular emotion; such that when the external facts, which must terminate in sensory experience, are given, the emotion is immediately evoked.

only by pure and clear means. Our analyses and evaluations, be they either positive or negative, do not change the value of a single composition in an absolute sense. As Buddha put it: It was so of old, Atula. It is not just so today. They criticise him who sits in silence, they criticise him who talks a lot. They even criticise him who speaks in moderation. There is not a man in the world who is not criticised. (Dhammapada, Adage 227). A spiritual level and erudition in the arts, the ability to recognise and evaluate existing high artistic qualities is essential. The more the listener searches for the sublime spiritual germ in music and is able discover and evaluate it all, the more competent and objective they will become. I must thank the late Professor Leo Normet, PhD, of the Estonian Academy of Music for his advice and assistance in my use of English musicological expressions.
" Manly pointed to different solutions from the same text. Finally, he criticized the texts of the solutions themselves on the ground that they "contain assumptions and statements which could not have emanated from Bacon or any other thirteenth century scholar." How, then, to explain Newbold's cryptanalyzing information that he said he never knew, such as the position of the spiral nebula? The answer is that he must have known it, though subconsciously. Newbold, a scholar of immense erudition who casually learned the Catalan language and read a thousand pages in it in pursuit of a minor point of the solution, must have swept up that detail in his extensive studies and slipped it into the depths of his brain, where it lay hidden from his active mind until the solution drew it forth. No one ever questioned Newbold's integrity; he was a victim, Manly said, "of his own intense enthusiasm and his learned and ingenious subconscious."
