I am not an Irishman, and can prove it.” (See also headnote to The Waste Land, 9. AFTER PUBLICATION.)

Matthiessen, F. O., The Achievement of T. S. Eliot (1935, 3rd ed. 1959). TSE to Charles Williams, 22 July 1944: “Matthiessen’s book was, I think, a very good book of its date (1933): and he had the inestimable advantage, while working on it, of having me in daily view, at breakfast, lunch and dinner, and sometimes for bootleg evenings.” TSE stayed with Matthiessen, of Eliot House, Harvard, in autumn 1932. To Matthiessen, 17 Sept 1934: “if meanwhile you have any questions to ask me, I will do my best to answer them.” To I. A. Richards, 24 Sept 1935: “Matthiessen need hardly be mentioned. He is such a nice fellow, and his book was so depressing to me: I suppose he wrote it for his pupils: but should he have pupils?” To Itrat Hussain, 10 Feb 1939: “I think that on the whole Professor Mathiessen’s book gives the fullest and most satisfactory analysis of my work, though I do not wish to derogate from the merit of other critics. I spent a year at Harvard five years ago, and was constantly in the company of Professor Mathiessen, and showed him a number of lectures which have since been destroyed, and also had a number of conversations with him about my work.”
