I didn't follow the link to the "suppresses essay" that was at the
bottom of the webpage that I pointed the list to because I believed it
to be one already submitted to the list. Checking it out, like Marcia,
I don't have permission to read the page. What I thought it was was
images of the draft of one of the lectures that made up "After Strange
Gods" (part 2?)
The introduction to the suppressed essay is at "The Virginia Quaterly
Review" website at URL (and is still available publicly):
http://www.vqronline.org/viewmedia.php/prmMID/8907
The webpages linked to are protected though (they didn't used to be.)
"After Strange Gods" can be found online in at least two places:
http://www.vanguardnewsnetwork.com/download/writers/afterstrangegods.htm
http://www.archive.org/stream/afterstrangegods00eliouoft/afterstrangegods00eliouoft_djvu.txt
The first link is to a racist site and so normally could be suspect
(like putting other words into Eliot's mouth) but I have previously
checked out a copy word for word with two other electronic versions I
have and found it to be in agreement with the others (with enough small
differences between them all to be independent copies).
The second site has a poorly scanned text version of the book. The
Vanguard News Network version is easier to read.
Regarding "free-thinking Jews" in ASG, read Russell Kirk before coming
to a conclusion. His book is "Eliot and his Age" but he has a short
article online as well at
