Modernism and Eugenics: Woolf, Eliot, Yeats, and the Culture of Degeneration
Childs, Donald J. (University of Ottawa)
This book, first published in 2001, shows how Woolf, Eliot and Yeats believed in eugenics, the science of race improvement, and adapted this scientific discourse to the language of the modern imagination. He traces the impact of eugenics on such modernist works as Mrs Dalloway, The Waste Land and Yeats's late poetry and plays.
