In this study, first published in 1983, Professor Smith makes the argument that although The Waste Land is analogous in form to a musical composition that it is actually made of its literary echoes. He calls these a 'music of allusions' and shows the resemblance of this music in its evocativeness to the technique of Mallarm??? and the French symbolists.
