{"title":"Inclusive","authors":"Kathryn Allan","doi":"10.1111/criq.12772","DOIUrl":"10.1111/criq.12772","url":null,"abstract":"Inclusive is an important term in modern times, central in governmental and institutional discourse on a range of issues, in educational settings, and in discussions about language policy. In its earlier meanings, some of which continue in use, inclusive marks the boundaries of what is and is not in a set, but it has also become a keyword in relation to social equality agendas, indicating a removal of real and perceived boundaries. Being inclusive in the latter sense can have specific entailments and require an individual or group to address the physical obstacles that might prevent particular groups of people from participating in particular activities; in other contexts, though, inclusive is much vaguer, a generally positive description that aligns the speaker with a set of values that are not always clearly defined.Inclusive is borrowed into English from Latin and is attested in writing from the early fifteenth century (OED1); the related verb include has a dual etymology from French and Latin and is borrowed around the same time, and the antonym exclusive is first attested slightly later. inclusive appears to be used first as an adverb which postmodifies phrases referring to periods of time or to locations, for example, in expressions like ‘January to June inclusive’; this kind of use is still common, although less likely to refer to anything other than time. From the mid-sixteenth century it is also used as an adjective, both in the general meaning ‘that is included’, which is relatively short-lived, but more often in the sense ‘that includes’, which survives into the present day. The related noun inclusion is attested from around the same time as the adverb; both inclusiveness and inclusivity are derived from inclusive within English, in the eighteenth and twentieth centuries respectively.Changes in the meanings of inclusive over its history relate to what it can modify, that is, what can be described as inclusive, and its object, that is, what can be included. Some senses involve concrete objects, for example, the obsolete OED sense 3 ‘That encloses or surrounds something’, which applies specifically to entities such as walls and fires which can create a physical boundary. Shakespeare's Richard III plays with this sense in referring to a crown as ‘The inclusiue verge, Of golden mettall that must round my browe’ (1597 W. Shakespeare Richard III iv. i. 58, quoted in OED). Less restricted are uses which refer to a range of concrete and (more often) abstract entities: Arnold Bennett's 1909 book. Literary taste: how to form it uses inclusive of a particular type of collection, meaning ‘including all of many elements of something’, in his statement that ‘Every Englishman..ought to own a comprehensive and inclusive library of English literature’ (1909 A.

{"title":"T.S. Eliot, Post-War Geopolitics and ‘Eastern Europe’","authors":"Juliette Bretan","doi":"10.1111/criq.12766","DOIUrl":"10.1111/criq.12766","url":null,"abstract":"Digressing from decidedly prosaic themes in a letter to his mother in December 1919 – a lingering cold, Christmas plans and a vague New Year's resolution of writing ‘a long poem I have had on my mind for a long time’ – to include a rousing, two-pronged critique against American apathy towards global peacemaking, and the complicated reconstruction of new nation-states, T.S. Eliot pulls no punches at the state of post-war Europe:Eliot was commenting on American isolationism and neutrality following the First World War, with Woodrow Wilson's failure to ratify the Treaty of Versailles, and limited American support for the League of Nations. He was also referring to the slow burn and enduringly complex effort to establish the boundaries of the newly appearing nation states of Europe, especially in its east.2 This is a passage, we might argue, which reveals Eliot's interest in the east of Europe – an interest particularly manifesting as a recurrent anxiety about affairs in Vienna, which he pedestals as a site of inarticulable human suffering, reflecting the widespread popularity of support for the city at the time in British cultural and political circles.3 However, the letter also suggests a certain tension within Eliot's perspective. For whilst he specifies Viennese sympathy, this is counterpointed against a stigmatisation of the wider political difficulties in the region post-war, which were contributing to civic breakdown. Central Europe and Vienna are to be supported, but the wider politics is a ‘fiasco’; a word which imagines not only disaster but also sheer ludicrousness, as if it is unreasonable to even think of the possibility of a ‘reorganisation of nationalities’ in that area in the first place. For Eliot, concepts of national structure, curation and control have limited scope within what was a multi-ethnic and transforming space.Eliot's interest in the region remained; for, three years later, a note he provided within the first edition of The Waste Land – that ‘long poem’ he mentions in his letter – claimed the masterpiece (or, at least, one of its sections) was similarly inspired by what he described as ‘the present decay of Eastern Europe’.4 Similarly, but not quite: for this time Eliot does not redeem the region with tales of victims of Vienna but simply inflates the appalling conditions in the region to a broad-sweep devastation. His description, as many critics have noted, reflects common stereotypes about the region following the First World War: the collapse of the Russian, Habsburg and German Empires, cultural heterogeneity, rising nationalism and lack of legal-political authority in the area meant it was often seen as unstable and volatile within western-inspired and universally applied models of nationality and statehood.5 In 1919, the then Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, David Lloyd George, suggested the region's ‘nations were going straight to perdition’; ","PeriodicalId":44341,"journal":{"name":"CRITICAL QUARTERLY","volume":"66 3","pages":"51-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/criq.12766","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139585533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
