Ok. So I've got to present a speech on T.S Eliot - Preludes in a couple of weeks, but I have to analyse it with a particular critical approach and I have no idea which one to do. I was thinking maybe Marxism or Post-Structuralist but then i have no idea what to focus on or talk about.
If anyone has an idea on what approach I could take or knows the poem at all, I would be more than happy with suggestions!!
Please heeellllp.

Hmm shazran there's a significant reference to religion near the end.

In terms of critical approach, i have no idea what kind of approach to go with - I studied Eliot in Advanced and we mainly talked about Eliot and his Modernist context. I'm sure you could ask your teacher to give you some sort of direction?
