While his thesis received praise from Josiah Royce, then head of Harvard’s Department of Philosophy, Eliot never returned to defend it in the \u003ci\u003eviva voce\u003c\/i\u003e examination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEliot's admiration for Bradley became publicly evident in the notes to \u003ci\u003eThe Waste Land\u003c\/i\u003e, where he quoted the philosopher. The dissertation was eventually published in 1964, with Eliot describing it in the preface as 'only a curiosity of biographical interest'. Nevertheless, the work has since been acknowledged as a significant contribution to the study of the idealist philosopher.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGallup A75.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU: \u003c\/strong\u003e2121208\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Henry Sotheran Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64738336113017,"sku":"2121208","price":300.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0045\/2178\/7426\/files\/2121208.jpg?v=1790755745","url":"https:\/\/sotherans.co.uk\/products\/eliot-t-s-knowledge-and-experience-in-the-philosophy-of-f-h-bradley","provider":"Sotheran's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
