T.S. Eliot's poem, "The Waste Land," has become an essential part of the English canon.  Nearly a century of Eliot scholarship has been contributed to readers' understanding of the poem, and throughout this time, various editors have sewn up the pages of the original poem with scholars' research to market the respectable findings to students and bibliophiles of western literature. Although readers may interpret the content of "The Waste Land" as individuals or in conjunction with some noted schools of influence, there remain enduring questions regarding the inferred experience of the reader.
