Abstract (en)

General discussion citing most frequently a comparison between Picasso's collage Still Life with Chair Caning (1911-1912; Paris, Musée Picasso) and T.S. Eliot's The waste land. Concludes: "Comparing separate artistic disciplines is both workable and important. However, given the problems that the usual interarts analogies face, critical writing must avoid the tempting word games, clarify the centre of its comparisons, and show that technical interarts similarities exist in demonstrable ways."
