*T.S. Eliot’s Christmas Stories: ‘Journey of the Magi’ and ‘A Song for Simeon’ * Cornelia Cook *New Blackfriars * Vol. 81, No. 958 (December 2000), pp. 516-527 “‘Journey of the Magi’ and ‘A Song for Simeon’ use poetic dramatisation to retell a bible story. Re-tellings reflect the experiences of other times and places than the initial story. Re-tellings reach out to a wider audience — in place, in time; they both restate and extend the implications of the initial story.” http://www.jstor.org/stable/43250498 CR
