This paper focuses on the inhibited emotional dimension of T. S. Eliot's Early poetry considered at three levels of human intercourse (social, affective, pseudoamorous) as well as on its stylistic consequences mainly evident in the use of genre and imagery. Eliot's emotional poetic restraint is explained as a result of the poet's severe Unitarian upbringing, the defective conventionalism of New England's human relations and the author's ingrained will of coherence with his own critical thought.
Eliot had to undergo his own initiation process both empirical and intellectual before being able to let the Thunder's compassionate voice ring out.
