Arms and the man:An Anti-Romantic Play in three Acts by George Bernard Shaw. Politics have
taken paralyzed every aspect of life. Many problems exist in Waste Land and they offer no hope that
the society in that land will recover. The manuscript was not lost, as had been believed, but had
remained among the papers of John Quinn, Eliot’s friend and adviser, to whom the poet had sent it
in 1922. From the Dantean vision of the dead walking over London Bridge to the dangerous
business of doing a simple errand to the buttonholing last line from the French poet Charles
Baudelaire, in which the reader is addressed directly as hypocrite and brother, the atmosphere is
menacing. Eliot combines many of the themes and techniques he had examined in his earlier work,
themes such as aridity, sexuality, and living death, and techniques such as stream-of-consciousness;
narration; historical, literary, and mythic allusions; and the dramatic monologue. And we shall play a
game of chess, Pressing lidless eyes and waiting for a knock upon the door. The Waste Land poem is
a direct counterattack to the anarchy and futility of contemporary history. Another result was the
generation of young men lost to the. Are we to take this mention of Bavarian aristocracy as a symbol
of the decline of this class of people, given the context and the poem's main theme of the loss of the
old order. Hieronymo's mad againe. Datta. Dayadhvam. Damyata. Shantih shantih shantih You
probably recognize one of those allusions for sure: London Bridge is falling down That's something
that I think we all learn. So a brave knight heads off on a quest to obtain the Holy Grail, which will
bring life and fruitfulness back to the kingdom. The illustration here is that the society is lustful and
for them, their desires have to be achieved no matter what. Eliot seems to form the verses as
ambiguous riddles, but each one relates to sexual experience and a specific place—two in London
and one in Margate. 'Trams and dusty trees' is a reference to different areas of London—Highbury,
Richmond and Kew, relatively affluent areas. So he forms an interesting narrator and perspective on
this scene with the typist and the lover. To browse Academia.edu and the wider internet faster and

continues with lines taken from The White Devil, a play written by John Webster in 1612. Here there
is none, and the speaker seems at a loss to understand why. The problem with these people is that
they are selfish and proud and thus, they cannot unite. A certain Mr. Eugenides, presumably the one-
eyed merchant from Madame Sosostris's tarot pack, he of Smyrna (now Izmir) in Turkey, declares his
pocketful of currants, complete with 'C.i.f' (cost, insurance and freight) documentation. What is the
connection between cigarettes and polar exploration. Eliot used dialogue from a play, The Spanish
Tragedy (1586), by Thomas Kyd, the English playwright: Hieronimo: Is this all. The Waste Land is
one of the most outstanding poems of the 20th century. There is a repeat of Marvell's line (196)
before the speaker describes ' The sound of horns and motors', a not-so-obvious parallel with that of
hunting and the chase. This scene shows how Philomel has changed since King Tereus, her brother
in-law, sexually abused her. Each of these devices ran counter to the traditional. As it begins to rain,
the speaker ends the poem on the riverbank again, offering prayer in Sanskrit: ''Datta. Dayadhvam.
Damyata'' (Give, Sympathize, and Control.) He ends with a chanting of ''shanti,'' often recited at the
end of Hindu prayer in The Upanishads. The use of motors in his poem, Eliot replaced with hunting,
and Sweeney and Mrs. Porter were used in place of Acteon and Diana.
It is spiritual transformation. 'Fear death by water,' said Madame Sosostris. These levels are usually
integrated together in real life and in literary works, and thus, they usually end up being the same.
Through all these attributed functions, it influenced Eliot's symbolism. The interior of is to my mind
one of the finest among interiors. The ending is nuts. I'm just going to put that on the screen and you
can take a look at it: I sat upon the shore Fishing, with the arid plain behind me Shall I at least set
my lands in order. Of course, how happy an ending Eliot offers is up to debate. It's pretty great. It
allows you to read the poem in one screen and link to copious notes in another, all at the same time.
The supreme deity Prajapati gives instructions in the form of a syllable DA which the gods know as
'be restrained' (Datta), humans know as 'give alms' (Dayadhvam) and demons know as 'have
compassion' (Damyata). This was Eliot skewing the norm, almost teasing the reader with random
rhymes before reverting back to free verse within loose structure. It was in London that Eliot came
under the influence of his contemporary Ezra Pound, who recognized his poetic genius at once, and
assisted in the publication of his work in a number of magazines, most notably “The Love Song of J.
It's a puzzle as to who the speaker is for lines 35 and 36—the 'hyacinth girl.' Is it a separate female
persona from Marie in the first stanza. But, every so often, when you find the right poem for you, it
takes you away as you become lost in a mirage of words, images and metaphors. To lay emphasize on
the problem of selfishness that these people possess, the encounter between the young girl and the
typist can be used. The lines are sung by a lovelorn sailor on Tristan's ship, thinking of his Irish
beloved. It also depicts a desire to form something anew from the ashes. The protagonist states that
he will show people fear in a handful of dust, referring to the fear of death or becoming just a
handful of dust (Eliot, line 30). For example, Madame Sosostris, a fortune teller, and Phlebas the
Phoenician, literally an ancient sailor who's in this poem and drowning. It contrasts strongly with the
section title, related to death, as it introduces the reader to the month of April, traditionally
associated with new life, the beginning of Spring. Philomel or Philomela is taken from Ovid's
Metamorphosis, VI. In this decayed hole among the mountains In the faint moonlight, the grass is
singing Over the tumbled graves, about the chapel There is the empty chapel, only the wind's home.
As the speaker passes through this difficult place, even the locals are unhappy—there is a lack of
spirit. His main concern is that his wife might pass during her labor. Were they meant for kids,
despite their being contained in cigarettes cartons. To sum up, all the central symbols of the poem
head up here; but here, in the only section in which they are explicitly bound together, the binding is
slight and accidental. For the merchant described in this poem, he does not carry this secret. It’s like
a teacher waved a magic wand and did the work for me. Interested readers have sought and will
continue to seek out the poem in its original form, and while The Waste Land for iPadcan boast of
some innovative features, it cannot ultimately claim to be a reinvigorated or livelier version of the
poem. Procne asks Tereus if he will sail and bring her sister to visit. The Wastelandis not a poem for
any given time it’s not merely describes local. The aim of this paper is to recognize the specific
qualities of modem verse and their recognizing features in comparison to the romantic poetry.
What value did life have now that masses beyond compare had perished so easily in the Great War.
In one of the scenes, the daughter of Thames claims that she cannot connect anything with anything
(Eliot, line 301-302). Part II: A Game of Chess The second section begins in a lavish room. Note the
modern twist on a list of everyday things that are not in the river ('bottles' and 'cigarette ends' and
the like—the debris of summer. A woman and a man are engaged in conversation in which the
woman prods the man for details on his thoughts and memories. The next line is in Italian and means,
'And so I pray you, by that Virtue which guides you to the top of the stair, be reminded in time of
my pain. This first part involves the dead, which is very critical in the poem of The Waste Land; it
helps in showing the confrontation between the past and the present, a metaphor that points out how
things have badly decayed over time. It was first published in 1922, appearing in the October 1922
issue of Criterion magazine in the United Kingdom and the November 1922 issue of The Dial
magazine in the United States. T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land is widely considered one of the greatest
English language poems of modern history, as well as the pinnacle of Eliot's work. Who are the dead
that are being buried in this section. Thus, just as in The Waste Land, assembling the fragments to
mean something has the work of the reader. Eliot wrote most of 'The Waste Land' at Lausanne, on
its shoreline. Madame Sosostris is being cautious and will take the horoscope to her client Mrs.
Equitone by hand, not risking the mail. The knight must face numerous obstacles, and near the end
of his journey passes through the Perilous Chapel, a nightmarish place that represents his biggest
challenge yet. Download Free PDF View PDF See Full PDF Download PDF Loading Preview
Sorry, preview is currently unavailable. He illustrates this pervasive sense of disillusionment in
several. Pound provided significant editorial help with The Waste Land poem before its publication.
Tereus does so but when he sets eyes on the virgin girl he is 'possessed by unbridled desire' and
hatches a devious plan en route back to Procne. Weston focuses in particular on medieval accounts of
the Grail legend, but links these tales to earlier traditions. It must be clearly understood that The
Waste Land is a social document of our times, a poem. Procne however gets to learn of her husband's
dark deed and rescues her sister. Its title is 'Les Sept Vieillards' ('The Seven Old Men') and it's from
his celebrated Les Fleurs du Mal ( The Flowers of Evil ), published in 1857. This is the woman who

PRUFROCK AND GERONTION Metin BOSNAK “The Waste Land”, one of T.S. Eliot’s most
noted works, continues to provoke much debate as to its meaning. In all these respects, the present
resembles the past. The young clerk is a lowly city dweller with pimples. But particularly after World
War I, as literature and other art shifted from a traditional, romantic, or idealized, approach to an
approach that emphasized gritty realism full of discontinuity and despair, artists began to experiment
with nontraditional forms, ideas, and styles. This effect is polyvocal, meaning more than one voice is
present, both in actual narrators and classical texts. A woman drew her long black hair out tight And
fiddled whisper music on those strings And bats with baby faces in the violet light Whistled, and
beat their wings And crawled head downward down a blackened wall And upside down in air were
towers Tolling reminiscent bells, that kept the hours And voices singing out of empty cisterns and
exhausted wells. Complete with the text of the first published version of The Waste Land, this
definitive volume reveals the evolution of a landmark work of the twentieth century and its enduring
legacy. Here is a low river waiting to fill with fresh rain.
Needless to say, it could take many calls before the drinkers all complied. The final line is a repeated
Shantih, a formal end to aN Upanishad, meaning inner peace. Gone are the figures of trade, his
materialistic life. She reigned for 45 years as a strong and remarkable queen, sacrificing 'love' for
state duties and loyalty to the cause. You can see there that's a totally different voice than Marie. It is
very common to have common themes when analyzing a poem in terms of society level and the
human level. From the Dantean vision of the dead walking over London Bridge to the dangerous
business of doing a simple errand to the buttonholing last line from the French poet Charles
Baudelaire, in which the reader is addressed directly as hypocrite and brother, the atmosphere is
menacing. Stanley Sultan's few pages on the subject in Ulysses, The Waste Land, and Modernism
form--as will be more fully noted--the one substantial, and neglected, exception. Leading on into the
next line, 99, there is the story of Philomel displayed. Here is Philomel again, the girl with the cut
tongue raped by the monstrous Tereu, king of Thrace. Politics have taken paralyzed every aspect of
life. This is Sanskrit, taken from a Hindu fable in the Upanishads (ancient sacred manuscript). The
aim of this paper is to recognize the specific qualities of modem verse and their recognizing features
in comparison to the romantic poetry. These levels are usually integrated together in real life and in
literary works, and thus, they usually end up being the same. It's one of Eliot's most famous poems.
It was published near the beginning of his career in 1922. Eliot openly acknowledged this: Not only
the title, but the plan and a good deal of the incidental symbolism of the poem were suggested by
Miss Jessie. Here there is none, and the speaker seems at a loss to understand why. The scene
switches to the home of a typist who invites a man to her home for tea time. A reader-response-
Analysis approach is used in analysing the poems, and will attempt to examine the changes that
emerged as a result of modernism, highlighting the riles of these poets in this regard. These
techniques, and all the techniques associated with modernist literature, expressed a rebellion against
traditional literature, which was noted by its distinct forms and rules. The first question to be asked
in the poem is rhetorical and relates to renewal. The mountains are the natural abode of those who
seek spiritual attainment: the ascetic, the hermit, the monk. It is not merely a structure of discourse
from which certain links have been. Modernism, which sought to scrap Victorian ideals of what
literature should be, prided itself on experimentation and the embrace of new cultural shifts. The
other category of people in Waste Land is also borrowed from Dante’s work and the description of
people in the first level of hell. Well, Eliot wanted his poem to be modern, but to do that, he felt he
had to incorporate past historical, mythological and literary ideas in a new form. The Isle of Dogs is
a peninsula in east London bounded on three sides by the curving Thames. Tiresias saw it all coming;
he who once prophesied at the market wall in Thebes (in Greece) foretelling the fate of kings now
has to make do with sex on a divan in a dimly lit London bedsit. It was in London that Eliot came
under the influence of his contemporary Ezra Pound, who recognized his poetic genius at once, and
assisted in the publication of his work in a number of magazines, most notably “The Love Song of J.
There was hardly a line that could stand on its own.
Note the recurring present participles—'breeding,' 'mixing,' 'stirring'—which keep the reader in an
unusual Whitmanesque here and now. Though this, there will no longer be corruption of sex in the
society. When Tereus is told the grim news, he chases the girls but before he catches them, he is
turned into a hoopoe bird, as the gods would have it. Then he hid himself in the fire that purifies
them.' This is taken from Dante's Purgatorio 26:148 where the poet Arnaut Daniel is encountered
among the lustful. They're in a barge on the Thames, and rumour has it that someone is urging them
to marry, so close they seem. The cards, which came with Player's Cigarettes, each feature a different
representation of Arctic exploration: from explorers to ships and the formation of Icebergs, every
card tells a short story about the frozen ends of the Earth. From the Dantean vision of the dead
walking over London Bridge to the dangerous business of doing a simple errand to the buttonholing
last line from the French poet Charles Baudelaire, in which the reader is addressed directly as
hypocrite and brother, the atmosphere is menacing. The Structure of The Waste Land Unraveling the

Lesson Summary Show. The crowds of people could be those crossing London Bridge later on in the
poem (line 62), although these appear to be in a ring—perhaps in some sort of ritual. The following
year, he married Vivienne Haigh-Wood and began working in London, first as a teacher, and later for
Lloyd’s Bank. The conversation is overlaid by the bartender telling them that the bar is closing. It is
not merely a structure of discourse from which certain links have been. The supreme deity Prajapati
gives instructions in the form of a syllable DA which the gods know as 'be restrained' (Datta),
humans know as 'give alms' (Dayadhvam) and demons know as 'have compassion' (Damyata). The
woman in the chair is both beautiful and dangerous, the surroundings rich and ornate. This is Isaiah's
prophecy concerning a Messiah and, in the context of the poem, reflects Eliot's interest in the future
of western society following the disaster of the first large-scale industrial war. Through this, we see
that water has been corrupted to represent death because of lack of self-control. Produced in this
limited facsimile edition by Eliot’s widow, Valerie, using the manuscript held in the New York Public
Library. It's pretty great. It allows you to read the poem in one screen and link to copious notes in
another, all at the same time. In the legend of Fisher King, foot washing was a ceremony that
preceded the restoration of a king. Literary Styles: Voices In terms of voices, you might expect that
with all this weaving, you'd get some monologues, voices and streams of consciousness, which is the
second thing that we mentioned we're going to look out for. There are footsteps, shuffling on a stair
that leads somewhere, nowhere. The final line is a repeated Shantih, a formal end to aN Upanishad,
meaning inner peace. The reason for this is that some myths point out that humans evolved from
water through fish. The 'rats' alley' could be a reference to one of the World War I battle trenches of
the Somme, which were notoriously rat infested, the rats feeding on corpses, the lost bones being
those of many soldiers who were never identified or recovered. 'The wind under the door' comes
from John Webster's play The Devil's Law Case —'Is the wind in that door still?'—which relates to
the speaker asking if someone is still alive. He illustrates this pervasive sense of disillusionment in
several. There is a great emphasis on light and colour, a conscious effort to highlight the roomful of
stuff, which means the woman in the room is virtually ignored. In the modern society, their form of
love entails more of satisfying individual instinctive desires. This effect is polyvocal, meaning more
than one voice is present, both in actual narrators and classical texts. After graduating from Harvard,
he moved to France in 1910 to attend the Sorbonne. The descriptions in these lines are borrowed
from Dante’s description of people in his poem Limbo.
Procne becomes a nightingale, a songster, Philomela a swallow, with a blood-stained throat. In line
159, Lil has been taking pills to get rid of an unwanted baby, to have an abortion. It contrasts
strongly with the section title, related to death, as it introduces the reader to the month of April,
traditionally associated with new life, the beginning of Spring. These people were born before Christ
and thus have no knowledge of salvation. The scene is set for a meeting of potential lovers, the man
shuffling in, the woman finishing off her hair. The poem drifts again, this time to a pub at closing
time in which two Cockney women gossip. It's one of the more representative works of literary
Modernism. Indeed the theoretical affinites of Baudelaire et al. So that's a way to think about 'The
Waste Land' to link it into the Modernist tradition and to also get an introduction to what's in there.
However, it is an essential poem because it brought the modern world—kicking and screaming,
despondent and spiritually withered—out of the dark morass of cultural dismay into the light of new
hope and form. 'The Waste Land' combines the old with the new, history with the present,
mythology and real life, symbolism and psychic fragmentation. The lyrics of a song from the novel
go: When lovely woman stoops to folly And finds too late that men betray What charm can sooth her
melancholy, What art can wash her guilt away. Believing this style best represented the
fragmentation of the modern world, Eliot focused on the sterility of modern culture and its lack of
tradition and ritual. These kind of juxtapositions can really reinforce or offer ironic commentary, or
both at the same time, on the modern scene. He is afraid of the new beginnings, of what lies ahead
in his new life. For example, Madame Sosostris, a fortune teller, and Phlebas the Phoenician, literally
an ancient sailor who's in this poem and drowning. For Eliot, if people learn how to give, sex will
have a new meaning in the society. He's also maybe seeing it from both a man and woman's
perspective, because he's been both. The second illustration on the corruption of sex in this society is
the scene at the pub. At line 266, the form alters drastically and becomes short and lyrical. For the
most part, however, the poet invokes that original template which Weston seeks in her own work; he
even casts himself as the Fisher King at several points, and describes the rains come to cleanse the
wasteland at the poem’s end. In the Waste Land prophecy has dwindled into fortune. In the poem,
there are images of dry rock and sand—there is no water. If this were all it were, it would be an
interesting scene that's kind of well done. He returns home with a sad tale of Philomela's death.
When we analyze self-control, we can conclude that if people develop self-control, they will regain
their lost faith. The Hanged Man, a member of the traditional pack, fits my purpose in two ways:
because he is associated in my mind with the Hanged God of Frazer (Sir James Frazer author of The
Golden Bough), and because I associated him with the hooded figure in the passage of the disciples
to Emmaus in Part V. Unleashing the Power of AI Tools for Enhancing Research, International FDP
on. There is symbolism in these lines that shows that the faith that people had in water has been lost.
Eliot’s “The Waste Land” undoubtedly had an immediate relevance to the atmosphere. Out of his
personal trauma came the impersonal art.
