Through the exploration of T.S Eliot’s ‘Prelude’s’ (1911), ‘The Hollow Men’ (1925) and ‘The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock’ (‘Prufrock’ 1915), the audience is exposed to the isolation, depersonalisation and corruption of society that Eliot endures by his ‘single voice’ of apprehension, engaging with our own uncertainties. Eliot’s poems endure the hardship of people being hungry for any form of spiritual experience in which through the exploration of the five poems, becomes increasingly obvious. His poetry is set in...

Modernism is a movement in literature which lasted from the end of the 19th century to the middle of the 20th century. This specific era marked landmark progress in science and technology, globalization and industrialization.

Quality poetry offers readers insight into their own relationship with their world, presenting themes prevalent within their own lives that address the complexity of being human. Eliot advocates the need for the confrontation of uncomfortable truths by exploring the unease of immortality caused by modernity which internally manifests disconnection, evoking spiritual rebirth.

His poem takes the form of a story, a narrative, with a character delivering a strong sense of voice and mood throughout the poem, moving away from the use of a strict rhyme scheme and meter used traditionally in poetry. Eliot uses repetition, in the form of alliteration, rhyming and literal repetition of words...

Alfred Prufrock’ appears to be more personal than simply his surname because it is individual to him but at the same time it could be interpreted as somewhat formal due to its fullness. Something else which seems strange at first is the...

T. S. Eliot’s notoriously opaque “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” can be interpreted only by acknowledging that the speaker’s thought process is not consistent throughout but an ongoing process. On first reading, the poems stanzas seem to belong to separate plots or lines of thought, but unity can be perceived if we think of the structure of the poem as reflective of the developing mental state of the speaker, with certain longer stanzas representing the processing of an...

To say that “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” is a typical romantic ode to the wonders of love, as the title may suggest, is quite far from the truth. To the contrary, this poem enters the straggling mind of J. Alfred Prufrock, a man plagued with irresolution, and because of this irresolution will probably never realistically be in love with a woman. “Love Song” is a dive into Prufrock’s inconsistent thought processes, and the foggy workings of his...
