Poetry isn't a turning loose of feeling, yet an escape from feeling; it isn't the declaration of identity, yet an escape from identity. Be that as it may, obviously, just the individuals who have identity and feelings realize wanting to escape from these things.
One can find in what sense, for Keble, the poetry is "an escape from identity" and be grateful for it.
Yet, Eliot appears to mean substantially more than that. In "Tradition and the Individual Talent", the persuasive article from which the statement is taken, Eliot advocates and clarifies his alleged "Generic Theory of Poetry.
Be that as it may, there are places in the essay where I think Eliot goes too far. In those spots, he doesn't simply arrange the person in the convention, however, tends to forfeit him to it. He needs his perusers to consider the writer as a sort of compound impetus which is important to realize an outcome.
