Question

During the 17th century, according to eliot's hypothesis, a gap opened up between thought and feeling. This was largely a byproduct of the dawning of the age of reason, the birth of the scientific revolution. Prior to this period,there was no such separation. Great poets, artist and thinkers and thought their feeling and felt their thoughts. This was the hayday of christian humanism. Eliot described this dissociation as the separation of feeling and language or substance and form and consider it the aim of the poet to attempt a reconciliation of these two aspects of art. There is this view that there existed at one time in the past - it may be greco roman, the mediaeval of the generally pre-modern (before the metaphysical) unity, a wholeness and a completeness that is absent in the present. According to eliot, the secret of the pre-modern wholeness lies in a homogeneous worldview provided by religion, myth or symbolism; usually all three are found together.
