... at that time have been accused of snobbery in the now unusual sense Woolf, Eliot and Leavis gave to that word: of a desire (that is) to appear and act like someone whose social status was higher than it really was.

...Most of T. S. Eliot’s obscene poems have become known since the 1996 publication of Inventions of the March Hare. Consequently, the Columbo and Bolo poems became notorious for their scatological and pornographic content, and more troublingly, for their violence, racism, misogyny...

...This chapter considers some of the ways in which a glittering cavalcade of previous scholars – most notably, perhaps, Eliot Warburton, C.H. Firth, C.
