Consider this statement by exploring the relationship between text and context in at least two poems you studied by Eliot. Eliot’s modernist poems‚ Preludes and The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock‚ depict the effects of industrialisation on societal consciousness‚ through lenses coloured by war and suffering. Through the eyes of two alienated individuals‚ Eliot suggests that life is bereft of

    1 EXAMPLE (A) Grace Chua’s poem‚ “(love song‚ with two goldfish)” describes a basic love story that yields no happy ending. In this “song”‚ male wants female‚ but the female wants more than what the male can provide. A difference in desires is established. Although the characters of this song are both goldfish‚ I believe this story represents and can act as a metaphor for numerous relationships in which a female feels trapped or closed in and the male that loves her if not capable of satisfying

    English II Honors 28 March 2013 Tones of Love Poems Pablo Neruda and Billy Collins both wrote poems about love; however‚ they each create individual tones through literary devices and relations.

    Ironically‚ the repetition of ‘my’ implies an illumination of identity‚ rather than its suppression. It seems the Prufrock is afraid reveal his identity may ‘disturb the universe’: “do I dare‚ and‚ do I dare?” Avoiding this ultimate question‚ he seeks peace in oblivion: I should have been a pair of ragged claws; scuttling across the floors of silent seas”.

    Quest and Prufrock The Holy Grail is the central device in Chrétien de Troyes’ Perceval‚ the Story of the Grail. T.S. Eliot takes this medieval romance and modernizes aspects of it in his poem‚ “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock”. The poem exhibits the features of a grail quest‚ albeit in an inverted form.
