I spoke with the Dr. before class today, although not without a little trouble finding his room, I think I walked by it twice. But anyway we discussed my topic, and he advocated that I put the Quartets first and look at Bob's words and music in this context not the other way around. So that's what I did, I just finished my first draft. I looked at how the themes of the eternal return, and life as fiction, manifest themselves in the Quartets, and how Bob's words are a reflection of their themes and ideas. I looked at the Rastafarian relgion as a whole and how Eliot wrote about similar concepts in his poems. I look forward to see what some of the other papers will be about.
